Powder foundation

[whiteroseredrose]

I’ve not really worn make up for years but I think I’m a bit too old for the fresh faced look. I’ve bought a couple of liquid foundations but find them a faff.

Years ago I used to have a face powder type foundation in a compact that I could quickly brush on.

I can’t seem to find one now. Do they still exist anywhere??

Thank you

Laura Geller make one. Have a look at the website.

Jane iredale also has powder foundation

Bare minerals

Fenty do one. Larger Boots should sell it.

Bobbi Brown does one

Max Factor Facefinity compact. I find it quick and easy to apply.

Rimmel 24 hr stay ,red compact is great. I've repeat bought it .

Using by terry pressed powder now and very happy with it. It is white but it makes your skin glow

Bobbi Brown have one. I use their stick foundation sparingly on thr T zone and then powder all over after that.

Brilliant. Thank you everyone. I will track some of these down. I used to wear translucent so will check for that first.

Yes, another vote for Laura Geller. This is the one:

Cheaper to buy direct usually (they cover any import taxes upfront) if you don’t mind waiting a week or so for delivery.

It lasts surprisingly well and looks good but very natural.

The Bobbi Brown one is brilliant. I have it in several shades (for when I have a tan) and always have several back-ups of each shade.

Bare Minerals Bar Pro powder foundation is great, they had a blip with the formula a couple of years ago but now it’s fab again - sits well over SPF etc

Another vote for Laura Gellar, specifically designed for more mature skin, so it doesn't crease and settle into fine lines and is buildable too.

L'oreal Infaillible powder foundation is good. A little goes a long way and it lasts all day. https://www.boots.com/loreal-paris-infallible-24h-fresh-wear-powder-foundation-10291892?traffic=paid.shopping&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=19971247868&gbraid=0AAAAA-AdmwTVdiqEpB_KbYg4ifamma1xl&gclid=CjwKCAiA95fLBhBPEiwATXUsxHtKDUK_ksGlGG7TJhEUCbYULFsi-gHzqJi7lDi_Px1IkDhYAq5YrBoCN_0QAvD_BwE

I just bought the Rimmel and I’m really pleased with it.

Another vote for Laura Geller, it’s very natural looking and doesn’t upset my sensitive skin.

Look at Korean cushion foundations

Thank you everyone. Have ordered from Laura Geller. Fingers crossed!

How do you know which Laura Gellar shade to go for? I wish I could try before I buy.

Really helpful thread . I used to find the powders very drying so they made my skin feel ‘stiff’ . Are any of these specifically not like that and how do I avoid it??

The Laura Geller foundation powders are on offer in Amazon for just around £15!

Elizabeth arden do a mineral powder foundation.
