What's a good foundation to use when your 40 and have some wrinkles?

Question

all the foundations I use seem to make my lines look deeper.

Answer 1

First try to buy one that is the closest you can get to your natural skin colour. If it is the wrong colour, it will not hide the wrinkles, it will just accentuate them. Too dark and your skin may just look orange, too light and you will look pale. Try applying the foundation with a brush or a sponge instead of your fingers as you may find that they will apply it too thick and again, make the wrinkles look more "filled in" rather than hidden.

If you are not a big fan of foundation, try getting a tinted moisturizer instead. This will look and appear lighter than a foundation and doesn’t need such delicate handy work. This is good for those that wear make up on a regular basis, by taking care of the skin whilst hiding imperfections such as wrinkles. Again, tinted moisturizes will still need a bit of care and consideration behind buying them, but it doesn’t matter too much if the colour is not an exact match.

Answer 2

Hi.  Try Clinique Super Fit.  Its a liquid foundation created for mature skin.  It provides a medium coverage & doesnt look heavy on your face.

  

Dont apply too much though~~ that will make any wrinkles look deeper.  Just put a bit on your palm~~just a bit.  Then apply it to your face with a makeup brush.  Its one that looks like an artists oil paint brush, only soft.  Start from center of your face & gently apply toward your hairline.

A Clinique beauty tech at a dept store (Belks, Dillards, etc) can find the makeup that suits your complexion.

Answer 3

if you are you using a powder or mineral make up that's probably why. powders tend to make wrinkles more visible. use a liquid foundation. one that is not too thick, try mac makeup. or mary kay.

I'm 52 and have been using aularale.com/7002 for the last 7 years. It's WONDERFUL!!  Check it out - put in 'anti-aging' - they've got a 'face & body skin smoother and a new peptide serum that'll tighten up your skin.  The foundation is great too.
