8 New Make-Up Launches For Mature Skin
THE FOUNDATION STICK
Complexion Rescue Luminous Skin Tint Stick, £33 | BareMinerals
Traditionally, stick foundations can be a little drying or drag on the skin. This, however, is silky and hydrating, acting more like a tinted moisturiser than a foundation. The coverage is buildable and natural looking, with impressive staying power too.

THE POP OF COLOUR
Jelly Lip & Cheek Shot, £26 | Beauty Pie
If you find powder blushes can look a little cakey or crack into fine lines, this dewy option could be a great alternative. Balmy without being sticky, the raspberry shade adds an instant, healthy-looking flush to the cheeks or can be patted onto lips to add a wash of colour.

THE COMPLEXION BALM
Tinted Blur Balm, £31.20 (was £39) | Laura Mercier
A real skincare-make-up hybrid, this complexion balm is infused with peptides to smooth and soften skin texture. Together with radiant pigment, it delivers a soft-focus wash of coverage and dries down to a matte (but not at all drying) finish. It can be used all over like a foundation or just spot-placed as a concealer.

THE MASCARA
Noir Allure Mascara, £40 | Chanel
We all love a jet-black mascara for the drama but a brown or blue can be more flattering, especially for a daytime look. This suits-all navy shade from Chanel is a chic option and the cool-toned blue avoids any suggestion of an 80s-inspired look.

THE LIPSTICK
Signature Lip Blush, £25 | Merit
The words ‘matte’ and ‘comfortable’ don’t always go hand in hand when it comes to lipsticks, but this formula bucks the trends. Developed with an ‘anti-feather’ technology to prevent it from migrating into fine lines around the mouth, the wax-based bullet glides on for a soft-focus finish that looks matte but feels balmy.

THE BRONZER
Supersuede Radiant Baked Bronzer, £28 | Saie
Although a powder, this very finely milled bronzer seems to melt into the skin, so it’s impossible to look streaky. Whether you’re using it all over to add a glow or more to sculpt and contour, the finish should be seamless and sun kissed.

THE FOUNDATION
Double Serum Foundation, £49 | Clarins
Based on the brand's hero serum, this dual-chamber foundation combines an anti-ageing serum with a creamy pigmented base to create hydrating, lightweight yet long-lasting coverage.

THE TINTED BALM
Hydrobalm Tinted Lipstick, £45 | Westman Atelier
Infused with hyaluronic acid for moisture, peptides to smooth and ceramides to plump, this sheer lipstick delivers skincare levels of care alongside a wash of buildable colour. If you’re finding your usual lipsticks are cracking or bleeding as your lips lose volume, this might be a good alternative.
