What is the best foundation or face powder to get if you have a fair amount of wrinkles?

I've got a fair amount of wrinkles, and when i apply either foundation or face powder, it seems to accentuate my wrinkles, rather than hiding them, can anyone suggest a brand of foundation, or face powder which will conceal my wrinkles, not make them more noticeable, and should i use a liquid foundation, or a pressed compact powder, or both, please help, i'm 41 and don't know much about makeupWhat is the best foundation or face powder to get if you have a fair amount of wrinkles?
Hmm...join the crowd. I myself and many other women ask this same question....and you will notice there are many out there that should ask this question.





After spending a ridiculous amount of money myself on this very question at a posh and expensive salon, you will benefit from the pain my pocketbook.





Refrain from any cosmedics that offer a ';mate finish'; and let go of your face powders. These all magnify those marvelous wrinkles and creases we worked so hard to get over the years.





In our 40's we now need to focus on a ';dewy look'; which means we have lost that. How do we get that back? Our main focus for the future of our skin is MOISTURE and Protect....and teach our girls to do this now before they have to.





Look for make-up with moisture. Revlon makes a great one and if you must top off with powder do only the ';T-Zone.';








I spent an entire morning at Nordstroms looking at ';light diffusing products'; meant to help us persuade others that our wrinkles are not as bad as they are. It was interesting that these products ranged from $35 up to $250. I asked my dermatologist how to decide which is the best investment and he said...';NONE..buy this-- GENIE INSTANT LINE SMOOTHER'; I found it online and have basically became in love with it. It is affordable enough to use not just on my face.





Get a good moisturizer...avoid powder if you can...and become dewy. A friend of mine that does models for add agencies told me that as we age, less is more. Go less on the harsh color eyeshadows, smudge the line on eye liner unless it is a night function, and go for a more delicate color on lips during the day.


Do your make-up under whatever light you will be seen in. Florescent lights if that is what they have at work. Using your makeup mirror can be a huge mistake if that is not similar to the light you plan to be seen in all day. My friends in college discovered this by accident as we all showed up for an event looking like we had been planning our halloween costumes. The beautiful brown we all used looked burndt orange in daylight.





My secret trick...I use a cover-up creme with a skin tone three times darker than my actual shade- as a eye make-up. It gives me a hint of color, doesn't crease, and later on toward the evening I can put a color on top of it and it acts as a great base.





I drink tons of water a day. Always wear sunscreen. And I drink a secret concoction my great granny always drank...and she had beautiful skin even when she died at the age of 102.


What is it? Water boiled with barley, strained, add lemon, chill, drink. I must be doing something right. Nobody ever guesses my real age which is 45...they usually say I must be 30.What is the best foundation or face powder to get if you have a fair amount of wrinkles?
I'm 39 and nothing is going to conceal wrinkles. I've accepted that my smile lines are proof I've had a happy life so far!





However, the new mineral powder foundations (bare escentuals, neutrogena has them now, too) do a good job at evening out skin tone without accentuating wrinkles. Lots of products (concealers and foundation, anything heavy) will just settle into them. I find bare escentuals kind of glides over them. It's good stuff. Anything heavier just makes you look older.





edit: my post isn't an ad like the one above.
i am 46, and i absolutely love bare minerals by bare escentuals, it doesn't settle into fine lines %26amp; wrinkles, so it makes me look younger. i would recommend the'orginal'; starter kit (60.00), it includes 2 shades of foundation, 3 brushes, mineral veil (for a flawless finish), warmth (bronzer), glee (blush), and the how-to dvd. the full size foundation by itself is 25.00, and lasts me about one year, that's how little is needed. i am not sure if there are sephora or macy's stores in australia, but i know nordstrom carries bare minerals by bare escentuals in all their stores internationally. try them out there, to see, how the make-up works for you, before spending any money. make sure to watch the how-to dvd first, otherwise you'll use way too much. nordstrom also sells philosophy skincare, which i totally love; eye believe and dark shadows are great for the under eye and lip area, and the booster caps and serum work wonders.
my moms 45 and she swears by the neautrogena (yes i understand i cant spell :P)mineral powders.she also uses i think covergirl age rewind foundation when shes going out on the town along with the mineral powder.
I am in my 40's and I began using the PepTox line of skin creams by Bee Luscious about 6 months ago and have seen the results! Its been amazing my wrinkles have flattened out they are not as deep, and even my husband noticed a huge difference. Try it I highly recommend all the products ate Bee Luscious the quality is unsurpassed and you can trust them.
at 35 i too have em, but i've found steam really works...i don't mean steam in shower. pharmacy stores usually have facial saunas for about $30.00, or you can do a homemade one...boil water in pot then when its really steamy hold your face above it at least 10 mins. and it will be very hot...take it. your face when cooled will feel extremely tight...steam is better. keep a wet facecloth handy when steaming. this lasts most of the day...do it again...
