Foundation for Mature Skin

Try to avoid thick, heavy foundations, as these can settle into lines and produce that ‘caked’ look. Instead, look for sheer foundations that settle lightly over the skin with a silky finish. Our STUDIO RADIANCE foundation provides a sheer veil of coverage for a look that’s radiant and natural.

Makeup artists usually recommend liquid foundation as the preferred makeup for older women. This is because it tends to be more hydrating and smoothing. However, some powder foundations can produce a beautiful finish, such as our MINERALIZE SKINFINISH NATURAL. The luxurious texture of this multi-mineral powder will reduce the appearance of lines while bringing out your inner luminosity.

Rule number one with mature makeup is to apply a deeply hydrating moisturiser before you begin. We recommend the MAC COMPLETE COMFORT CREME to properly rehydrate your skin before applying makeup.

Yes, primers are great for all skin types. A quality primer will help to keep mature skin supple and smooth.

We recommend the MAC FIX+ MAGIC RADIANCE primer for older skin because it is infused with hyaluronic acid and Vitamin C to refresh and strengthen your skin. It can be used before or after makeup – whenever you need a moisture boost.
