Hi Ladies!! I wanted to know how to prevent laugh lines? After about a hour of wearing my makeup, I have these lines on the side of my mouth that crease with my makeup. I use a primer and setting spray from NYX. And Clinique and Maybelline make up. Any suggestions? I have very oily skin as well. Thank you!!

Hi Jasmin,

You have gorgeous skin! Because of your (again, gorgeous) high cheekbones this is natural to happen. You can use a line filler such as MAC's Prep and Prime Line Filler which does help, however from my experience it's just going to happen (hey at least it's because you're smiling and laughing - that's not such a bad thing). Try touching up with a translucent powder such as the Make Up For Ever HD Translucent Powder. It won't look cakey no matter how much you re-apply and will soften the appearance of lines while also controlling oil since that is another concern of yours.

I hope that helps!

You are absolutely beautiful! I agree with Alicia at least it's because you are happy and smiling. Estée Lauder also makes a really good fine line filler.

Check what the primer is that you're using.. If any ingredient ends with "-cone" that could be part of the reason any fines lines peek through unless your foundation also is silicone-based. If your foundation does not have silicone ingredients, you may be better off using an oil-free moisturizer as your primer.

Thank you Ashley! I am going to try that out, I'm sure my oily skin needs a certain type of products, so you ladies are a big help!!
