Desperate for a good foundation

Address the dry skin first.
Think ordinary Nivea is brilliant and review what you are cleaning with.
Do you use soap?

Yes have been using soap and realise that won't help. So now switching to cleanser if I can find a decent and cheapish one.

Thanks ladies, noting all of these and going to read up on them.

I've used Clarins MultiActiv Day Cream for years; my 'age spot' doesn't seem to have got worse but I do avoid too much sun.

Clarins makes a face cream that is supposed to get rid of age spots. I used to use it but it's more expensive.
Then I use Clinique Even Better foundation.

Always use a facial suncream if going out in the sun (Factor 50).

I like Laura Geller - it’s available online and is designed for mature skin. There are always 50% off deals, so sign up for their emails before you buy anything, and you’ll be sent a deal very quickly.

I use the Trinny BFF it’s amazing.

Patsy that is on my list of things to do, I've found a local beauty salon place here so I could pop in there. TY.
Gotellthebees I used to like L'occitane and Dior face creams but just stopped. Wee bit wary of throwing loads of gunk on the face now and it erupting in protest

Do you moisturise? I use rosehip oil on my skin. It's light, easily absorbed, and helps with drness, redness and age spots. I use Boots Perfectly Flawless, although in matte, as I found the non matte one just slid off my skin.

This made me chuckle. I’m sure you’re not that bad. 😂
Why don’t you treat yourself to a facial with a recommended professional therapist? She would be able to advise you on your skin type and the cleansing routine to suit you, as well as the foundation. The products do not have to be overly expensive.
