Foundations for mature skin: top 6 ideal options

Wrinkles, uneven and sometimes dull skin tone, large pores and age spots - women face all these problems after 35-40 years. When doing makeup, it is important for a makeup artist to hide such imperfections, but not to create a mask effect on the face, so that the image looks fresh, natural and harmonious.

In this case, well-known makeup artists recommend using liquid and light foundations , since dense and heavy ones will only aggravate the situation by getting into wrinkles. The right product will lie on your face like a second skin. Celebrity makeup artist Nick Barose recommends applying product only to the areas that need it, rather than all over your entire face, while Tony Talve suggests using your fingers rather than a brush or sponge to apply, and keeping the use of powder to a minimum.

We'll tell you more about the best foundations for mature skin that you should try.

Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation

Constantly praised by makeup artists and cosmetologists, Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation has earned its icon status and numerous awards.

Tom Ford Traceless Soft Matte Foundation

Makeup artists use Tom Ford's Traceless Soft Matte Foundation for a smooth, refreshed finish that looks like leather, but more sophisticated.
