You might think that as you get older, you should wear less makeup. It’s true that too much can accentuate lines and wrinkles and can even look garish.
However, I believe that a little of the right kind of makeup can be transformative.
Foundation is a must
But it needs to be nourishing, hydrating, and importantly, not matte. A light coverage over pigmentation, (and who doesn’t have pigmentation?), is going to give an even skin tone that will take years off you.
I’m always searching for the perfect foundation for mature skin and have found three absolutely brilliant ones.
1. Fearless Skin Tint Drops by Trinny London
This brand-new foundation by Trinny is specially formulated for women over the age of 40. It’s very light and can be layered to make it as thick as you like. Full of hydrating ingredients.
2. Foundation Stick by Jones Road
Light and creamy but still gives decent coverage. Dewy with a satin feel
3. Skin Repair Perfect Canvas by Studio 10
An old favourite of mine. Uniquely created for mature skin, this creamy foundation gives excellent coverage but can still be applied sparingly if you prefer. Perfect if you have a lot of pigmentation or redness to cover.
Now watch the video to see me apply all three and judge for yourself:
