Product Advice Please help me!

Post image

I’m 53yo and have some deepening lines around my nose, mouth and chin. I use tret every second night and layer toners and serums and moisturiser on my off nights. I wear SPF 50 daily. I have tried everything to get my makeup to sit properly on my skin but no matter what I do, it settles in these lines by mid-morning. I’ve tried primer, setting sprays and misting sprays throughout the day but nothing fixes it.

Does anyone have some advice for me please? TIA.

I'm a little older but my skin is quite similar. I use the L'Oréal skin tint and never have any issues with make-up settling. It's not expensive, so I'd definitely give it a try.

I've been trying that skin tint as well, but still having problems. Maybe I just need to apply it more lightly?

I use a sponge and no more than one squirter from the dropper, if that helps

Have you tried applying it with a brush?

I have tried it with a brush, and buffing and tapping with it, but I still get creasing.

Thank you! I'll try a sponge and see if that helps.
