I am 61 and I’ve always had good skin thank God for my good genes. I did cook it quite a bit under the sun when I was young and was a smokers for many years and my skin is not bad at all. But I do have issues with finding a foundation that doesn’t settle so much into my lines. Right now I’m using Laura Mercier and I like it but I’d like to find a second one I can go to if desired. Also, under my eyes!!! OMG what big issues I have! I will put on under eye concealer and it looks patchy from the second it dries!
Same goes for my kid concealer as well. Any suggestions? Thank you!Posted By: Lourdes Varela.
