Wrinkles and make up

6 replies

I am 31 and started to get a couple of light wrinkles on my forehead. They don't bother me as such however whenever I wear make up they look so much worse and deeper.
I wear bare escentuals mineral foundation and think because it's a powder it makes them worse. I use benefits 'that gal' face primer before hand. Any ideas how I can stop the make up sitting in my wrinkles?

Hmmm it is strange that the BM is making the lines appear worse as I work with a 60yo lady who is rather wrinkly and it doesn't sit it her lines at all.... The only thing I could suggest is a line filler - the LuLu Killer Filler has had rave reviews in the press - or a skincare treatment like decleor arromescence iris.

oooh lulu killer filler looks good! I'm not sure if it sits as such but the lines are so much more noticeable after I've put make up on.

i am getting quite wrinkly around the eyes , i am 36 and i feel that my Bare minerals is making the lines look worse.
I have just bought clarins self tan for the face thinking that may be better , perhaps with a little of the mineral veil to soak up any shinyness .

I'm honestly thinking about ditching minerals don't want to though as I love it but don't want to be super wrinkly.

I've stopped the bare minerals because it does make me look more wrinkly. I've gone back to bb cream and bought some nanoblur. It works a treat! It doesn't actually get rid of wrinkles, just distracts your eye from them or something but it makes me look less wrinkly

Hmm so is it generally known that mineral make enhances the apperence of wrinkles?
