![]() When it comes to feeling beautiful, take it from this slightly older writer – it’s a worthwhile investment. If you’re ready to change up your makeup routine, lots of products can enhance both the health and look of your (slightly older) skin. While they don’t exactly label these foundations that way, (apparently the marketing gurus don’t find the term “aging skin” to be the best sales pitch,) they do offer added hydration, along with awesome, wrinkle-fighting antioxidants. Because I’m at least minimally vain, I figured it might be a smart idea to try out some foundations for older skin. My oily t-zone is still shiny by end of the day, and my pores, once almost invisible, are starting to show on the bridge of my nose and around my mouth and chin. ![]() In spite of my good luck and best efforts, I’m starting to see those laugh lines and crow’s feet when I’m neither laughing nor squinting, darn it. ![]() But I owe that to good genes, (thanks Mom,) and an unwavering commitment to impeccable cleansing, moisturizers, and steady use of SPF. I can’t honestly complain, because, for an oldie like me, my skin still looks pretty good. I don’t know how it happened, but I recently realized that I really haven’t changed my foundation, or my basic makeup routine, in a very long time, despite the fact that my once luminous complexion has changed a lot. My skin and I are hitting a few of those age milestones that once seemed a long way off.
