Aging is part of the process. As we age, our skin becomes prone to imperfections- lack of moisture and collagen. As a result, you will notice prominent fine lines, wrinkles, dark circles, enlarged pores and hyperpigmentation.

1. Choose a Hydrating & Pore Filling Primer

2. Ditch the Estée Lauder Double Wear/Heavy Foundations, Try These Instead

Using a thick and heavy foundation to cover up your imperfections will only make matters worse. Not only will your face look plastered, but it will sink into your fine lines/wrinkles, cling on to your dry patches and draw more attention.
