What makes 43 year old skin dewy?

Exactly that! Please help. Cheaper would be better but I am happy to consider investing if it’s really good stuff.

Vaseline at night

I put on oil under my moisturiser morning and night and also mix my foundation with serum which helps. Hourglass ambient light powders also give a lovely glow.

• Using micellar water before make-up remover (double cleanse?)
• Mixing facial oil in your moisturise at night

You have all been so helpful!!! Thank you so so much! The pictures are helpful @Sickoffamilydrama - Im definitely going to investigate some of those products.

I’m giggling again at the poster who said put on weight... sadly, I need to lose a bit!!!

I like to do my creams, makeup and THEN.... I take my face cream and rub it between my hands and pat onto my face, like a finishing layer. It leaves a nice and fresh but not shiny layer as makeup can get really matte.

Get an led light mask and use daily.

Other than a really good skincare routine the only thing that makes me glowy and dewy is Glossier Future Dew.

Laura Mercier primer and no foundation or powder.

Definitely use oil under your moisturiser x

This is definitely the trick. I use coconut or even olive oil.

Fat. A touch of fake tan.

Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Filter is v popular for this right now

I used cocnut oil on damp skin for years before discovering the ordinary retinoid in squalane a few years ago..Recently covered some shifts in a new resi unit and everyone thought i was in my 30's which was a massive ego boost lol..Mind you I hardly drink and as its so hot here in qld constantly have a water bottle at hand..probs got something to do with it too

In my early 40s I used rose hip oil all the time, and actually got old friends wondering what was going on.. but I had pretty dry skin then.

Now I'm 50 I have combination skin and this is amazing... I just stare at my skin and wonder whether to add anything.

When the assistant suggested it I thought it sounded too faddy, but it's the dogs pyjamas.
