In a viral video, the 58-year-old Morgen Schick (@morgenschick) wants everyone to know that when it comes to coverage, all makeup is indeed created equal.

Don't be fooled - whether it's a foundation, moisturizer or concealer, they're all doing the "same job" for hiding dark circles or other imperfections.

To help minimize nose-to-mouth lines, a creamy coverage that is up to two shades lighter than your skin tone will do the transforming trick.

It's all about "spot-treating" trouble areas such as broken capillaries.

The goal is for the makeup to not sink into the skin, but rather "melt" on top of it in order to keep more hydrated.

Blending pigments using a synthetic brush or sponge will also help to brighten things up.

When it comes to your anti-aging routine, using a lip stain that gives a darker contour shadow will give you that "glow."

Makeup giant Sephora sells $20 Rare Beauty lip stains that can be used from the pupils to the cheeks and then blended out.

The gel-to-oil formula is described as leaving lips tinted, but not sticky.

Fans of the buy from the Selena Gomez founded brand couldn't stop raving about it.

"I love how lightweight but pigmented this lip oil is, and that you get a lip-stained effect as it wears. It is so comfortable on application and does not make my lips feel dry as the day goes on," wrote one buyer.

"I live this for the tint, it really does last almost all day," said another purchaser.

Beating the aging effects of time also starts at the brows.

Don't forget to "open up your entire face" by extending your brows out until they are perpendicular to the jaw.

A wax eyebrow pencil can help to make hairs thicker.

Achieving a "lifted look" by defining your features is also easier than ever.

Just use a cream sponge and "go up and out."

Choosing eye makeup with pigments can also make your face pop while applying a darker color above the crease can "open" the eye.

Her little "tree trunk trick" involves jiggling liner into the base of your lashes.

Make sure to stay away from the water line.

You'll feel your lashes "move" as you pull the liner out and attach it to your crease line to make "eyes look wider."

For all day stay, a cream shadow is the way to go.

To keep drying properties away, you'll also want to limit your use of powder products.

Her fans were also floored by her age-reversing routine.

"I've been using your concealer-only tip and it's changed my skin! I have zero breakouts or pimples," said one follower.

Still, not everyone was on the same pigmented makeup page.

"I don’t agree - I need oil-free so I feel like it’s not all the same. Matte also is so different than creamy," said one watcher.
