looking old and creased

[stitch]

ok... I'm 41. I know that is not old at all and I don't feel it. But, lately my skin is total crap. I am very dry, I don't have a lot of wrinkles and my skin is pretty decent normally. I have been using ES (I feel its old lady mu...sorry:() I just dont like it anymore. I picked up some of the covergirl aging in a circle compact with the olay white through it. Its decent, but I would rather go with a little more coverage, maybe from a high end ..mac, stila, .... what about some recs??? Thanks

Prescriptives (http://www.prescriptives.com/templates/products/multiproduct.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CATEGORY14704) has some awesome foundations with a wide variety of colors. I'm sure they have a moisturizing foundation that you could test out. Also, ask for samples!

I also really love their Liquid Powder in Translucent (http://www.prescriptives.com/templates/products/sp_shaded.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CATEGORY14700&PRODUCT_ID=PROD1004). It's a loose powder that feels like a fine water mist when you apply it with your powder makeup brush and gives the skin a nice glowy sheen.

I'm 50 - and I don't feel old either! Except on those mornings when it's 8 below outside.
Anyway - make sure you are staying in sunscreen 7 days a week, 365 days per year. Nothing keeps skin nice better than that.
I really love Covergirl Advanced Radiance Cream Foundation. It's rich and smooth with plenty of coverage. It blends well and is great for drier skin. Second to that, I like Covergirl Advanced Radiance Cream Compact Foundation. It's a touch drier, but still fabulous.
You might also try Revlon's Age Defying Spa Foundation. It's fairly new, and I lik the color better than Covergirl. It's a liquid in a tube with slightly less coverage, but it's still moist and smooth and great for drier skin.

I'd also like to add that a good skin care routine will make your makeup look it's best. Definitely search the forums for skin care recommendations.

Makeupalley.com gets much more traffic than this site so i'd also check there for product reviews and similar threads. (you need to register with them first).
