Aging Skin &Thick Foundation

Aging Skin &Thick Foundation


 If you still slather foundation directly over aging skin, you're likely adding years to your look. That thick top coat tends to break into deep cracks, which look far worse than the fine lines you're trying to hide. Instead, apply moisturizer, primer, then a light liquid foundation for additional skin-plumping moisture. Try tapping it in gently with a sponge, rather than rubbing it in. Noevir Premake LX moisture spf20 is the perfect base. 




As you age, you experience many things -- puberty, pregnancy, menopause, pollution, sunlight, dry winters, humid summers, stress. Your aging skin experiences them too. And even if you take good care of your skin, life takes a toll on it.

But you can turn back the clock, at least a little, with makeup. By skillfully applying makeup, you can hide wrinkles, age spots, and sun damage and also play up your best features. Here are some tips from the professionals: makeup artists.

Hiding Fine Lines and Wrinkles

In trying to conceal fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, lips, and forehead, many women make the mistake of accentuating them instead by overdoing makeup. Too much makeup settles and cakes into lines, making wrinkles more noticeable.

Prevention begins with a moisturizer. "After you wash your face in the morning, apply moisturizer while the skin is damp, which will plump it up and even it out, helping makeup glide on," says Billy Lowe, celebrity hairstylist and beauty expert for television shows such as Extreme Makeover and TLC's 10 Years Younger.

Don't forget to moisturize around the eyes. "Packing on the makeup to cover lines or dark circles will cause it to crepe and bring out creases." To avoid a cakey look around the eyes, don't use heavy concealers.

"Learn your bone structure and features of your face," advises Bridget Winton, makeup instructor at the Bellus Academy of Beauty & Spa in San Diego. "Focus on your bone structure to lift the face. Give yourself a youthful look by using lighter and darker shades to make hard lines soft and soft lines hard."

For a sagging chin, for example, work with a foundation that is one or two shades darker than your facial foundation. Cover the darker area with a translucent powder.

A Breakthrough in Smart Moisturizing

99+ Line Set Advanced Moisture Care for Skin Well moisturized skin is key to achieving a youthful, radiant and healthy complexion. Adequate moisture content not only allows the skin to function properly, but also helps shield against irritants and promote repair.

Effective and deep moisturizing on a daily basis is of utmost importance when it comes to keeping skin’s natural balance. The 99+ line’s breakthrough formula strengthens the skin’s own ability to retain moisture and helps to prevent negative cycles of damaging effects. Uniquely formulated with a “Smart Moisturizing” approach as well as 22 kinds of plant extracts (including 11 new), the 99+ line provides soothing and intensive hydrati...
