Foundation?

[sithlord]

Ok, so i'm fast approaching 40. My old foundation, Estee Lauder Double Wear, is too heavy for me now. I need suggestion's for a new one more suitable for my age. I've heard that Chanel Vitalumiere is supposed to be good. Advice please!!

hi! Have you tried Nivea tinted moisturiser , or even Number 7's? I'm 28, with a combination skin, and usually find "proper" foundation too heavy for me. Saying that, I'm currently using "Recover" foundation, I think it's rimmel, and it's great! Not heavy at all, so it won't clog pores or lines, and it gives you a nice (not shiny / oily) glow. I can't give you advice on the more expensive ones, as I haven' t tried them. I found that, with years, you need a lighter foundation, so maybe someone else can advise on actual "grown up / credit card-owning" brands?

OMG Maximo. You're 28. If you've found with years you need a lighter foundation, then what the hell do I need. I'm just going to wear a bag on my head!!! lol. Cheers for the advice. x

Lol! Sorry, I meant to say, I've always had combination skin, and always found proper foundation too heavy ! Just thought that's the kind of thing you were looking for lol ! Go on people, surely someone else has a suggestion ?

Hi sithlord, try Maybeline's dream matte mousse. It's very light in texture, but gives good coverage. I apply mine with a damp makeup sponge,I can reccomend it!

Well there are the other Estee Lauder ones, that are not so heavy .. the light diffusing ones ... I do find Estee Lauder so very good.
