As I'm getting older, I find that the more sheer and natural looking my make up is, the better I look. And these also tend to be creams rather than powders. So I'm on the hunt for good products.

My own recommendations for things that I would buy again are;

Dior Addict Lip Glow
Dior Addict Nail Glow
Bourjois "Blur the lines" concealer. Great for under eyes
Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector
Bourjois CC cream

What does everyone else use?

Chantecaille or Nars TM, bit it had to be the Radiant Nars one, Bumpy Ride Blush and Chanel Coco Shine lipstick, they are pigmented enough to show but not too much.

I too find heavy make up makes me look older so definitely place-marking this thread.

I was impressed with this make-up demo and bought several of the products like the sheep that I am!

Also, concealer can be very ageing because it settles in the lines.

I'd rather have dark circles than that.
