I generally only wear eye make up and lipstick, but do sometimes think that I would like a daily wear something for my skin. The problem is I have a lot of freckles over my cheekbones (more freckle than skin) and anything light coverage seems to just make my face look dirty because of them.
I have in the past worn foundation with good coverage for special occasions, but for day to day I want to look natural but even out the skin tone (I have quite a lot of variation in skin tone as well as the freckles). I don't mind the freckles showing through, but don't want them looking a dirty grey. Oh and I'm 47 with some crows feet.
Does anyone have any miracle products that might work? I live a long way from anywhere with decent make-up counters (Boots, Superdrug, Clinique, Clarins, Benefit locally) but I do get to House of Fraser occasionally. I hate trying stuff on in Boots etc, very hard to get a good feel for what suits from the smudgy testers and bad lighting.
