Wrinkles occur naturally due to aging process. Wrinkles around mouth and eyes are most common signs of aging. Though wrinkles can’t be removed forever, they can certainly be reduced using the right make up.Here are some make up tips that will help you hide wrinkles around mouth:

• Try to avoid heavy make up for prolonged period, as it makes you look older by highlighting wrinkles around mouth.

• Use a base foundation make up on the lips before applying lipstick, then dust the lips with a face powder, line the lips with a lip liner and apply lipstick on top. When you are done, blot your lipstick using a tissue. Doing this, will prevent your lip make up from "bleeding" or "feathering" into wrinkles around mouth.

• Use a lip-setting cream before applying lipstick to prevent it from spreading into the wrinkles around mouth.

• Select your foundation carefully. The foundation forms the base of your entire make up. Make sure your foundation is light and spreads easily. Thick foundations tend to crack and this highlights wrinkles around mouth.

• Blushes and color washes can help hide the spidery wrinkles around mouth quite effectively.

• Use cosmetic products that help rejuvenate sun-damaged skin. Consistent use of such cosmetics can significantly reduce wrinkles around mouth.

• Try using cosmetics that contain peptides, sunscreen and anti-oxidants. These products will have an anti-aging effect and wrinkles around mouth will become lighter and won’t increase in number.

• Wrinkles around mouth are visible prominently when your lips and skin gets dry. Use products that decrease loss of water from skin. Using such products will make sure this doesn’t happen.

• If you don’t want to use make up, use a regular moisturizing cream on your face. Collagen and Keratin in the moisturizer have an effect of stretching the skin. This makes wrinkles around mouth look less prominent.

Make up provides only temporary reprieve from wrinkles around mouth. If you want a more permanent solution, you can consider undergoing cosmetic surgery. Though this is more expensive, the results are better and last much longer.

Some of the common techniques used to get rid of wrinkles around mouth using surgery are Chemical peeling, dermabrasion, laser resurfacing, non- ablative laser resurfacing, and face lift and Botox treatment.
