I've got to an age when I could do with some product to even out my skin.
Can anyone help a style and beauty virgin!

Any suggestions for a product that won't leave my skin feeling clogged up?

Mineral makeup. If it suits you, it's weightless and sheer but evens out small irregularities. Try Lily Lolo sample pots or go to a BM counter to give it a try.

I like Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua, it is super lightweight, you use such a small amount because it is highly pigmented, so covers really well with out being heavy. Its a great no make up -makeup because it doesn't look as though you are wearing makeup. Happy shopping x

I have just bought the MAC face and body foundation which I'm really impressed with. Very sheer, just enough to even out skin tone but easy enough to build up. I would say its more than a tinted moisturiser but less than a full on foundation.

Right. I'm now the proud owner of some bare minerals. So how long has this stuff been available. I thought foundation had to be liquid. Blush

Thanks for all the replies.

You could also try tinted moisturiser - I hate the feel of foundation but my tinted moisturiser does wonders. I use Hourglass btw (you can buy it in Space NK).

Around 10 years, although I was buying it in the US originally. It's the only foundation I can wear.
