How to hid a double chin with makeup  
For a quick fix, you can 'hide' a double chin with makeup. By creating shadows you can lengthen your neck and make your double chin less obvious.
Get a matte pressed powder, that's two shades darker then your skin tone. With the help of a makeup brush create a shadow along the base of your jawline to reduce the area beneath.
The shadow will give your jaw more definition and your double chin won't be as noticeable, especially from a distance. Also move the attention from your neck to your eyes, lips and cheekbones.

Don't wear clothes that will accentuate your double chin, that have the neckline right at the limit of your chin, say no to: high necklines, high V-necks, boat necks. Try V-neck nonetheless the deeper the better.
Finally avoid wearing jewelry that can emphasize your double chin, long earrings that end right at the chin area and accessories - as a scarf would only top the image. Instead, wear small stud earrings, lariat and long necklaces, which would distract the attention away from your chin.
