Foundation The skin evolves with age until it reaches maturity. And there are signs that are unmistakable: sagging skin or even a lack of suppleness and hydration. It is therefore necessary to adapt facial care and foundation to the specific expectations of this skin type. Here are our tips for successfully applying complexion makeup and limiting the signs of aging.
Focus on foundation mature skin: what are we talking about?
The passage of time inevitably has repercussions on the quality of the skin. Our lifestyle, our diet, the environment and pollution also contribute to accelerating skin aging. Without forgetting the sun and the free radicals which reinforce this state of affairs.
What exactly are the signs of mature skin?
“Adult” skin is marked by a decrease in collagen in its cells. It regenerates less well. With age, the production of sebum and hyaluronic acid also declines. A new skin profile is emerging with a skin barrier that weakens and dries out as well as signs of tissue sagging. The markers of mature skin then appear:
- Dry skin
- A lack of firmness and sagging of the skin
- Loss of density and elasticity
- The installation of fine lines and wrinkles
- Hyperpigmentation and the appearance of spots
Do you recognize yourself? Does your skin have these characteristics on your face and neck?

Foundation for mature skin: which texture to choose?
At first glance in the mirror, do you see dull, tired skin? Is the oval of your face no longer as clear as before? Despite your complexion makeup , wrinkles and fine lines resurface, or even deepen? You may not have the right foundation.
To begin, we invite you to put aside your mattifying foundations. They dry out the skin and this is precisely what should be avoided with mature skin. The same goes for powder foundations, which tend to bring out fine lines.
Choose a makeup product formula with moisturizing active ingredients.
The Zero Flaw Foundation, with a fluid and light texture , ensures a perfect and natural complexion finish. This make-up is enriched with organic chamomile, known for its moisturizing and nourishing properties. It does not mark areas of dryness or signs of age.
To obtain a natural result, opt for a shade lighter than your skin tone.
