The Best Foundations for Mature Skin
The Best Foundations for Mature Skin
It Cosmetics Bye Bye Lines Foundation
Thanks to a blend of anti-aging peptides and nourishing vitamins, this foundation-serum hybrid smoothes over fine lines and wrinkles and won’t accentuate them.
Maybelline Fit Me! Dewy + Smooth Foundation
“Look for foundations with glow and light reflecting particles to them to add back what mature skin lacks,” Williams says. Maybelline is a drugstore favorite that leaves skin with a healthy—not shiny—glow.
Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 15
Finally, a foundation that lives up to its name. Charlotte’s full-coverage formula is packed with an effective blend of blend of ant-aging ingredients that you would find in a night cream, but feels weightless on the skin.
Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hydrating Tint
Looking for an alternative to a silicone-based foundation? This Neutrogena formula is your match. It’s infused with super-hydrating hyaluronic acid which prevents the product from settling into fine lines by keeping dry skin moisturized and smooth.
Lanc?me Teint Idole Ultra Long Wear Foundation
Williams recommends avoiding heavily applying foundation, and to set it by lightly dusting over it with powder. “Don’t over-powder your foundation or you’ll end up with a lot of creasing and product build up,” she says. “Start sheer and build to the coverage you need.” To follow this technique, choose a formula that offers sheer to medium coverage like Lanc?me’s because it can easily be layered. It’s long wear and packed with special color pigments that maintain the skin’s pH levels. What does that mean? Your foundation will stay in place on long days without having to touch it up.
Giorgio Armani Beauty Prima CC Cream
A CC cream will provide dry skin with hydration and even out any discoloration.
Nars Velvet Matte Foundation Stick
Want a shine-free finish? Nars’s new demi-matte foundation glides onto skin and won’t emphasizes fine lines and wrinkles. Apply it directly from the stick onto your complexion and build coverage as needed. The blender-end is convenient for buffing the product out and touching up uneven spots.
Dior Diorskin Forever Perfect Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 35
This oil-free formula offers medium to full-coverage that renders pores invisible for a smooth, even complexion.
