As we age, the application technique and favorite products that used to work for us no longer does the magic.
Mature skin is dehydrated. It soaks up liquid products quickly, just like a blotting paper. So we need products that will work all day long and look flawless and natural. Finding makeup that makes us look great and also feel comfortable is tricky.
Choosing the perfect product is essential because of older skin demand for extra care. Especially, it would be best if you take extra care while selecting your foundation and blush.
In our article, we will talk about both makeup application techniques and the best products specially formulated for matured skin.
Application techniques:
Starting with a primer:
Over the years, our skin type changes with aging and menopause. So at first, you should make sure your skin type now. And then chose a primer accordingly.
If you can select a primer based on your skin type, it will fice you the best result.
A primer essential for creating a smooth base for your foundation.it will even out your skin pigmentation as well as help smooth wrinkles and fine lines.
Best primers for matured skin:
- Murad invisiblur perfecting shield broad spectrum spf 30 pa+++ serum
- Tarte timeless smoothing primer
- Bare minerals skinlongevity™ vital power infusion serum
Choosing the right base or foundation:
Do not use heavy or mattifying foundations. As older skin tends to be dry, you should go for translucent and dewy.
You don’t need to use it all over your face. You can use them to red spots and over discoloration or hyper-pigmentation areas.
Lightweight foundations having a little sheen are the best options for us.
Bb cream or cc cream will also give you a natural look. Bb creams are great as they got concealer and spf as well. If you are looking for a next to no coverage finish, go for a bb cream instead of foundation.
On the other hand, cc creams give more coverage than the bb creams but lighter than foundations. They prime your face, even out skin tones and hydrates as well – that’s why sometimes its a better option for mature skin than foundations.
The tools you are using to apply your foundation makes a big difference. So don’t hesitate to invest in a better blending sponge or brush.

Applying concealer after your foundation:
Choosing the right concealer is very crucial as it will enhance the appearance of your wrinkles.rather than selecting a concealer that is designed for blemishes, use one that is formulated for delicate skin.
Applying your concealer upside down tringle under-eye area helps to deflect lights away and provides good coverage as well.
