Fuss free morning makeup WFH

Heya
I'm trying to look a bit more polished wfh but I want a really quick unfussy routine.
In the Summer I took the plunge and had a lash line enhancement which has been a total game changer and I have a semi regular lash lift.
Other than that it's the usual vit c, moisturiser and spf, mlbb lipstick if I remember.
I want to get a better routine to look more presentable - am mid fifties.
I've been considering a powder foundation for ease as I don't want to be putting on a heavy foundation every day but want a bit of coverage.
I nearly bought the Laura Geller baked foundation but there seems to be loads of conflicting reviews - anyone any ideas?

I use Merit products and really love them. The Minimalist (foundation stick) blends beautifully and you only need to put it where you want to cover any redness so it’s very quick to apply.

@AlwaysReadyForABlether would the merit foundation stick cover under eye circles?

@Thursdaygirl I’m so sorry I’ve only just seen your question.
The Merit Minimalist is a concealer for under eyes too. It’s quite a light coverage so I’m not sure it would cover the darkest of circles though

I love the Tropic powder which has an SPF of 25. I've used loads of different ones but this one is my go to. That with a bit of blush and mascara is my every day wear

Buy the Laura Geller from (QVC UK) if you are from UK and you can return it , get money back minus postage. I love it. I have the balance and glow as although my skin in combination, it is my dry bits I buy it for!
