Foundation for mature skin

Any recommendations for a foundation to use for mature skin?

I've come to the realisation that liquid foundation is really doing nothing for my 54 year old skin. It always settles in my wrinkles and my pores and looks awful. I've tried several brands, with the same result.

Laura Geller has a baked foundation that is marketed as being for mature skin. If you have used it, is any good? If not, any recommendations?

I've recently switched to bare minerals complexion rescue. They call it a tinted moisturiser, but it makes your skin look surprisingly good without being at all cloggy. My slightly heavier duty one is Clinique even better clinical. It comes in a stumpy little glass bottle. I really like it for full makeup (which I hardly ever bother with these days), but since I've bought the bare minerals, that's what I tend to reach for most. Just dab it on, smoosh it around, job done.

Purito BB cream.

I have the Laura Geller and do use it regularly but it does dry out my skin so I need to step up my moisturising routine. Coverage wise it’s very good. I’ve also recently tried Vima colour matching foundation and this is quite light on my skin but also has very light coverage.

I use eborian cc cream. The one in the silver tube. It comes out white and adjusts to your skin tone. It looks like your skin but better. I'm 63 and it's fine on my dry,wrinkled old mush
