As our skin matures, we’re quick to switch up our skincare routine. We focus on skincare products that are packed with anti-aging and collagen-boosting ingredients, but these products are often just the first few steps in our daily beauty routine. What about our makeup? As lines deepen and skin starts to sag, the last thing a woman needs is makeup setting in those existing lines or even worse, creating new ones. That’s why we put our algorithm to work, pulling the Top 10 makeup products for mature skin. From CC creams to setting powders, liners and lipsticks, the products on this list have many of the same anti-aging ingredients found in our top-rated anti-aging skincare products. These formulas enhance aging skin and bring youth to the surface. The key is to focus on primers that create a flawless canvas while selecting products that keep the lips and lashes conditioned. Feel healthy, youthful, and radiant with the help of 10 products that are changing the age game! Opening image: @itcosmetics
