Hi Smiley Happy

I buy expensive make up base from Lancome and Estee Lauder because it seems to not settle into my wrinkles and enhance them.  Any recommendations for drug store brands that are high quality, have SPF, last all day, and do not enhance the wrinkles?  I'm trying to save money!

Thank you!!!  Smiley Happy

I've used Laura Geller for years.  I have some roscea so a good base helps me.

 

My favorite Laura Geller base is the one I can't find anymore.  It's colorless and it's amazing!  I can't for the life of me understand why it's no longer available.

 

I often sweat a lot and the colorless beads up!  It's great.  Does anyone know where I might find it?  It has the same name but one is skin colored and the one I want (the old(er) one) is colorless.

Posted a review on Bareminerals. EmilyNoel on YouTube revisited the brand. 

Encourage anyone interested please visit her channel. 

 

Honestly thought my days of wearing makeup over. I love Bareminerals. 

I understand not everyone likes the same thing. This is what works for me.

Love, love Bare Minerals. The Complexion Rescue is the best. Also still use Mineral Veil etc.

@tweety123  I purchased and use e.l.f. setting spray after I apply my makeup and it keeps my makeup on all day.  Great product for the price. $3

I use Chanel Health Glow Les Beiges or The Nudes - it's wonderful.  I've used it for years.  It's $60 but worth every penny.  And the bottle lasts - all you need is one pump.  And it's a small amount.  It does wonders for my 66 year old skin.  I can't imagine using a drugstore brand after this.

Another vote for Bare Minerals here. I use the Bare Pro liquid foundation and one pump is all it takes to do my face. 

 

As far as SPF goes, the amount in the foundation is not enough. I use a separate SPF instead.

Yes, Laura Geller has several liquid foundations, also a selection of primers.
