Foundation that doesn’t sit in wrinkles??

This year I seem to have gained some under eye wrinkles.

My current base colour, foundation and concealer combo does an ok job at hiding my dark circles but makes my wrinkles appear much worse!

If you have wrinkles but use a medium or full coverage foundation could you recommend it to me?

Wet beauty blender and creamy foundation

Try using some sort of primer first. I had the same problem and tried loads of different types of foundation. In the end I found a primer that works well with my skin and found that Dior forever foundation applied with a sponge seems to do the trick and doesn't sit in creases Smile

Clarins Youth Fluid....amazing stuff! Im on my first bottle but a total convert.

Use a primer underneath

Thanks all.

Wet beauty blender and creamy foundation
I use a wet beauty blender. Any recommendations for a particularly creamy foundation?

To those saying primer. I do already use primer (revlon photoready) but can change?

Thanks for the recommendations for foundation. I’ll check them out!

I find it best to use a good make up brush to apply

Heavy/full coverage foundation is horrible for wrinkly skin. You would be much better off with a quality CC cream or a very light foundation like the Serum formula from the Ordinary. And a big yes to using a foundation brush.

I never use foundation under my eyes, just concealer. I am currently liking bourjois radiance reveal, but have used maybelline eraser too.
Layering up foundation and concealer (and primer too) just causes cakiness, the makeup then sits in even very fine wrinkles.

I have make up brushes too that I used to use but swapped to a beauty blender.

I found that they sometimes used to leave lines and required much more patience to get right than a sponge.

I have the maybelline eraser. Tomorrow I’ll brave just primer and that (no foundation) under my eyes and see what it’s like.

Try using a setting powder once you've Applied your foundation under the eyes. It stop the foundation from sinking in to wrinkles

I’ve changed over to a serum foundation or tinted moisturiser which I’ve had compliments on. I went to Bobbi brown and I use Laura mercier glow powder over the top
