10 Best Makeup Products for Mature Skin, According to Our 50-Something Tester

• Pros: Creamy finish; non-comedogenic; multi-tasking
• Cons: A little greasy; takes a minute to absorb

This cream-based balm provided a healthy flush without settling into lines. It’s a cult-fave which multitasks as a blush, highlighter and bronzer. The formula’s hero ingredient is jojoba seed oil, which has fatty acids and vitamin E plump, soften and increase skin elasticity. It’s a great option for warming up the skin and adding radiance without having to reach for separate blush and bronzer products.

“I love the herbal scent of this plumping moisturizing balm, which I use when I want to give my face a healthy gleam on my less-makeup days. Plus, with continued use, it moisturizes my skin in the long-term. Bonus: The tub is huge, so it will last forever since you only need a little bit for just the right glowy boost,” says Twine.

Key Ingredients: Jojoba seed oil, vitamin E | Size: 1.75 fl oz.

Best Setting Powder: Huda Beauty Easy Bake Blurring Loose Baking & Setting Powder

• Pros: Full coverage
• Cons: Can be messy to apply

A great setting powder is also a non-negotiable in a mature makeup routine because it helps blur fine lines, wrinkles and areas of texture. If the powder is too heavy, it might seep into those lines and further emphasize them, which is why a finely milled powder, like this one, will minimize shine and smooth texture without pronouncing signs of aging. It blurs lines beautifully. And it imparts a translucent matte finish that won’t crease. Over time, nourishing vitamin E helps smooth out skin and gives it a brighter, clearer look.

“Huda’s setting powder is the GOAT. It’s mentioned constantly on #BeautyTok because of its power to provide a velvety base for a full beat. If you must use a setting powder, this is the best one for mature skin that I’ve tried so far, because it doesn’t settle into my areas of texture like a lot of powders often do. When you use a light hand (and do not apply directly on areas with fine lines), this powder sets your foundation and makes it last forever, plus it provides a great base for any makeup look,” says Twine.
