I’ve used it, almost daily, for years - I’m 74 now and used it this morning. The secret really is in the buffing. I bought that kit for DD1 (45) in February.

Phew! I couldn't find a more tactful way of saying it grin

Maybe it depends on how deep the lines are? I don't mean that to be rude, but I haven't found that at all.

😂😂 no offence taken. You made me laugh out loud!

I bought a starter kit a few years ago from QVC
Honestly for me, the powder just seemed to sit in the lines on my face and accentuate my age!
I think that even on the models in the adverts you can see this..
As you say, you hardly know anyone who uses it. If it was that good we would all be singing its praises.
Mine went in the bin!

I use Laura Geller, and like it. I don't like heavy makeup, and my skin is 66 years old, with all the texture and tones that come with late youth wink. I like that you brush it on and can leave it at one layer or build it if you want more coverage. I keep mine in the study and mainly use it before going on a Zoom call, so I don't look as ghastly as I usually do online.

If it helps, I have the baked makeup and the baked bronzer, which I use as blusher over the makeup. I also got some of the full coverage one as it came in a bundle, but rarely use that as it's heavier than I like.

Hi all. I've seen a lot about the Laura Geller makeup but I don't know anybody who uses it. There's a special offer on the starter kit at the moment, £45 from £90 plus postage. Given I have never had any success with foundation of any type, I'm thinking why bother, it can't be a miracle thing that doesn't look false (though 'they' say it doesn't and it's good for mature skin). I think I'm cynical also because every single thing I've bought online from an FB advert has been a duffer, from a super stretchy bra (like a tourniquet) to a white foundation that mimics your natural skin tone (nothing of the sort just another pore filler). So, I'd love to know if anybody can recommend it. Thank you!
