The powder just wasn't doing it for me anymore.  The liquid  is better, although, I think I'll need to go really light now.  Maybe it's an age thing. ??

Has this changed for any other ladies?  Shades, or liquid instead of powder?

I seem to go back and forth.  I feel liquid seems to find my wrinkles faster.   I just don't look the way I want to look.  I have wasted so much money trying foundation that does not work.   If you find a liquid that does not hunt down all your wrinkles please post it.  I still have combination skin.

theres a new Maybelline foundation out now that's amazing sort of a dupe for IT CC, I can't remember the name though

Yes. As soon as I turned 50, the powder foundations seemed very drying and they settled into my new wrinkles.  Primers didn’t work either.  Now I use Dior Airflash with a brush and no primer.  It has worked great for me. Less is more with this foundation.  Yes, it’s pricy, but you don’t use much.  I also buy with coupons at my local department store.

Dior Airflash with a flat head brush. It’s amazing for 60 year old skin.  It never settles into my pores or wrinkles. I spray on the brush that they sell.  I don’t spray directly on my skin.

I use Maybelline Fit Me - Dewey & Smooth with a damp Real Techniques beauty blender and I get a light smooth result.

Both inexpensive and can be purchased at Walmart.

I've been sorely tempted, when I see the ads on tv, to try that Luminess that you air brush on but don't know anyone who has tried it. Any of you ladies given it a whirl?

At 64, my combo skin is still loving Laura Geller's Balance & Brighten. It may not be the best for those with dry skin, though. I do occassionally use either LG's Quench & Tint cream foundation, or Mary Kay's CC cream. The Quench & Tint more in the winter when my skin is a bit drier, the CC in the spring/summer if I'm going to be outdoors, because it has SPF.

I also like Balance & Brighten in the summer as my skin is oily.  Otherwise I use liquid drugstore foundations.  I like Maybelline Fit Me.  Cover Girl has a matte BB cream in a tube I use too.  

Experiment to see what works for you.  I like seeing the product in person and I can exchange/return in CVS, Walgreen's, Ultra.

There's plenty of advice here but if you're in your sixties and don't want to look older, bare minerals "Complexion Rescue", and for a powder foundation I use "Born that Way" by two-faced
