Foundation for mature skin

No need to apologise Lesley it’s just another vote for Laura Geller.

Any recommendations for a foundation for mature skin please? The menopause is giving me a few dry patches on my cheeks but otherwise I'd describe my skin as normal. I need a medium coverage which goes on easily.

Ok. Here's a tip. Use a liquid like NYX Superdrug or Revlon Candid.get your shade right then use 50/50 pea sized blob mixed with your regular day cream .it's lighter cover really well and will be smooth on dry bits.

I don’t wear foundation very often but when I do I use Estée Lauder double wear light.
Day to day I use No 7 tinted moisturiser

Great question...I will need a new one too...I was looking at Lisa Eldridge new one on line but its £44.00 !??

Laura Mercier tinted moisturiser, I have used it for quite a few years now but always put a moisturiser underneath. They have changed it slightly just recently, they do it for greasy skin and normal.

I love Trinny London BFF with factor 30 sun protection in it and Trinny London De-Stress over it. The first is like a very hydrating tinted moisturiser and the second a tinted serum. Both have fabulous ingredients that actually improve your skin. Lovely!

Well, that thread just cost me £25!?
I liked the sound of the bare minerals tinted moisturiser so ordered it through looks fantastic!?‍♀️

The Ordinary's serum foundation. Comes in loads of shades, very light coverage and it costs about a fiver!

chantecaille is what I use and I am 70+ - yes, it is expensive but lasts ages ad you can use as little or as much as you like.

I use Aldi's La Cura BB Cream. It covers well and is nice and light (and cheap)

I use Clinique CC cream as it is very light and evens out my skin tone.

I'm another L'Oréal true match fan - it goes on really easily. I use rose vanilla I have/had red hair .

I too have dry patches and atthe moment I much prefer tinted moisturiser or BB creams. However when I do use foundation - last one I used was Clarins Skin Illusion - I was advised that I could add a drop of serum and it works! Stops it settling on the dry bits

I have tried so many over the years but now use Clinique's Super Balanced makeup, not too heavy and blends really well providing you get the right shade. Ive made some expensive mistakes so always get a tester now. Clarins also do a really good medium coverage foundation.

Trinny London light and easy to apply best by far and I’ve tried a few over the years

I love the Trinny London products - gives a lovely youthful glow .

Trinny London - lovely products - ‘youthful’ glow !!

I use Laura Mercia tinted moisturiser and like you yammy I still moisturise underneath .
