Our skin changes as we age. It may become drier with more discoloration and fine lines. The foundation we used when we were younger may not work so well now as far as hiding our flaws and making our skin look better, we also don’t want to look fake. Another tip from makeup artists, is to only use foundation on certain spots so you don’t look too overdone, which could make fine lines and wrinkles appear worse. Here are the top 10 best foundations for aging skin and a flawless finish.

Conclusion
As our skin matures, fine lines, wrinkles, and discoloration shows up more and we want to cover these. The skin often changes from oily/combination to just dry and that’s why you need a more hydrating formula that will also blur lines not accentuate them by using a more matte thick foundation. It’s best to use a lightweight formula on spots on the face that you want to minimize, rather than all over the whole face. This will look more natural. Are there any foundations you’ve tried that I didn’t mention? Let me know in the comments.
