THE BEST FOUNDATIONS FOR MATURE SKIN

[@rubyslippers103]

I’m 57. I watched a KZbin video. Where the presenter suggested adding a drop of oil to make a cheap foundation perform like an expensive one. I tried this and have never gone back. Try it for yourself. I use a drop of apricots oil which I had at home. It doesn’t smell. But works perfectly.... you’re welcome....

[@PamperedWolf]

Thank you Farah, I did a video on that not so long ago...check out the tips and tricks playlist xxx

[@beatnick92]

That Maybelline Dream Urban Cover has SD Alcohol as the 4th or 5th ingredient, and it dries my skin a little, and doesn't stay pretty on my face after a couple of hours. I might have to try that oil trick bc that is a foundation which I schieved a perfect color match by mixing 2 colors and then a 3rd color when the seasons changed my skin tone. You can't buy all those colors & experiment so easily if foundation is priced 3 or 4 times as high. Good idea about the oil!

[@bethbilous4720]

Your mum is delightful, you are so lucky to have yours in your life.

[@jinxxer101]

Wow! Your mom is so beautiful! I love the colors she's wearing, they look so natural. I'm over 60 & have trouble finding colors that are strong and natural without being overpowering. Your mum is just rosy! thanks for your vids!

[@stephaniesnider6178]

I am so happy to have finally found a fair skin you-tuber !!!! 💕 The fact you are a team with one who leans Dry and is mature is just perfect! 😊 Almost everyone on KZbin is NC/NW 20 and higher!!! .So, I’ll be binge watching to catch up and looking forward to new posts! 💋

Glad your mum is feeling better. I love to see you both together. Great video, thanks ladies. Xx

[@kajpagan]

I'm 56, and have never felt comfortable wearing makeup. I've watched your videos dealing with mature skin, and have found my fav foundation in Maybelline Age Rewind. The Age Rewind matches my skin tone so well, it's super easy to blend, and lasts all day. My eye make up game is getting better every day, and I'm learning to experiment with color. All I have to do now, is work on accepting the fact that lipstick can be worn on my very very thin lips. Thanks to you both!

[@wendybabendy]

I have thin "English lips" too - they seem to get thinner with age... :( I'm back to wearing some lip gloss, but haven't found an actual color that seems to work for me. I've also never been a huge make-up fan, but have finally found a mascara that I LOVE, and am spending more time watching these types of videos to help me up my game a bit.

[@deesnider6304]

So good to see your Mum back sharing the stage with you. She is just precious ❤️ Thanks for your feedback ladies😘

[@lindat6525]

[@cocoasia]

I absolutely love, love, love the no7 hydraluminous foundation! It is such a beautiful, skin like finish on my oily, yet dehydrated skin, which is dry, tight, flaky and textured atm due to rosacea flare ups. It doesn't crack or cake through the day, and is not creasey or oily. It's my number 1 too! 💕

[@greengrands]

Estee Lauder Doublewear light has recently been reformulated, and it is nothing like the original. I returned it to the Estee Lauder counter, and the salesclerk said she has gotten lots of complaints from disappointed customers! Love your videos, and enjoy seeing your mother, as I am more her age!

[@luvsiberians8006]

GREAT video, Gemma! Love, love, LOVE seeing your Mom as well. Both of you are perfectly stunning....easy to see where you get your beauty from, Gemma. Can't WAIT for the dupes video!!!

[@joanbiordi4995]

Hi Gemma. I adore your Mum and the video’s you do together. Yes, please do the Dups! I love your reviews, as you pick out the best and worst of each product and you do not hold back if you see an issue with the products. I am an older woman and have pretty good skin for my age, so I love the video’s with your beautiful Mum. But I think you have mentioned in your videos minus your Mum that if it has a certain issue on your skin, it definitely would have the same or more severe issue on your Mum’s skin. So keep those tutorials and comparison video’s coming! Oh, I wish the No7 was over here in USA. Hope it will be soon. Love to you and your Mum. ♥️

[@pamwho1185]

I think I’ll try the CYO. Not a fan of Double Wear- can’t find a shade that doesn’t leave an orange tint on my skin. And yes please to a dupe video!

[@tammivito5456]

Love this, great advice! Us over 50 need good advice on products, would love more videos like this. Your Mom is absolutely stunning, you look a lot like her. Two beauties for sure!❤️❤️

[@reneewooding4629]

Yay! Keep your mom coming back - so helpful.

[@ladyduce00]

This is a fabulous video. Pampered Wolf you and your Mum look very much alike. Good thing. I will be awaiting number 1 to get to the states. Looking forward to it, as a matter of fact, thank you and have a great day.

[@marypalmer2088]

This makes me so happy to see the foundations your Mom likes as well as you do. I am 59 and like to see what might work on my face, if I wore makeup. I wear eye makeup but look dreadful when I apply face makeup ( I don't know how to apply). I'm so encouraged to try when I watch you put makeup on your Mom, I get tips on the application. I think I will wait for the No7, that might be the one for me! I'm dry with cracks and pores! Thank you both so much......Mary

[@Mollys-lips]

Hi Mary, I'm 36 &like yourself I wear eye makeup but foundation is alot of makeup for me.I will tell you though to just bite the bullet go&buy a light to medium coverage lightweight foundation& for starters until you're more comfortable just moisturise your skin let it settle for a minute then just dot a little dot on the chin on the nose under each eye&above each eye brow then just using clean fingers start to gently massage the foundation starting at your nose(centre of your face) swirling outwards to your hair line ad more if you need to .if you can still see your skin through it that's great , it shouldn't be a mask. You'll find most of your face doesn't need it mostly the centre so your nose around your nose under eyes, eyelids, upper lip, chin&mid forehead. Then just (if you have an oily T zone or tend to get oily in spots during the day, you'll know where you get oily) buy a loose translucent drug store powder&just lightly tap into the powder then gently tap off the excess then either pat if using a cushion or swirl if using a brush the powder on the areas you know get oily. Try this at home when you're not going anywhere until you get a bit more familiar with how your skin wears foundation then you'll start to see what you need out of a foundation &can choose based on your skin rather than recommendations. Good luck&rmbr it's always better to wear a little less than a little more.

[@marypalmer2088]

@@Mollys-lips Oh my goodness, bless you for taking the time for all of that! I'm telling you as I get closer and closer to 60 I am trying to improve and I know makeup does it but again, I don't know how. I am running to the store first thing to find a light/medium coverage and come home, it is my day off, and practice. I'm also going to grab maybe some blush and bronzer, maybe, and try it all! Thank you so much for the easiest way I have heard to try foundation. Have a wonderful day my new found friend.

[@Mollys-lips]

@@marypalmer2088 oh, I'm delighted .I wasnt sure if you were going to think me rude for my comment or take it as you did, you are so very very welcome. Rmbr to pick up some translucent loose powder (for keeping oil etc at bay after you apply your foundation, it also helps minimise pores &sort of "airbrushes "the skin).also if you are buying a bronzer I would suggest to avoid the ones with shimmer in them I'm 36 & they accentuate my fine lines so. ...(ask for a matte bronzer or if you don't want to ask just hold it up to the light &if there's any shimmer glittery appearance to it I'd suggest you avoid it bc the shimmer ones exaggerate pores &fine lines bc it reflects the light drawing attention to the area, so go for the matte one) when applying bronzer less is definitely more the easiest way to describe where to apply it is turn your face sideways to the mirror &imagine a big number 3 starting around the side of your forehead around your hair line going down your temple &then the middle of the 3 is your cheekbone then come back in to your hairline&down to your jaw&run the brush along the jaw as the bottom curve of the number 3 (repeat on the other side just imagine a backward 3,I hope this makes sense) .I'm so happy to be of any help &if you want to ask a question just post it here I'll get it, Good luck &loss of love ,have fun trying it all out 💚🍀💚🍀

I really like this video, it kind of really points out how skin of a different age needs a different type of foundation.
