'Game changer' makeup product for older skin helps 'fill open pores and fine lines'
A makeup product that promises to 'fill open pores and fine lines' for a flawless foundation application has been hailed as a 'game changer' by mature shoppers. The Smooth Like Silk Face Prime from brand Look Fabulous Forever has received high praise, with some customers claiming it's 'better' than well-known brands and have been 'buying it on repeat' for nearly ten years. As skin matures, the longevity of foundation, eye makeup, and lipstick tends to decrease. This is often due to the skin not being as smooth as it once was, coupled with a reduction in oestrogen production, which can leave it drier. As a result, makeup can be absorbed into the skin, settling into fine lines and fading as the day progresses. Therefore, a quality primer is essential to maintain a fresh makeup look throughout the day, a promise made by the Smooth Like Silk Face Prime. Retailing at £29, this complexion product can be used to prepare the skin before applying makeup. For those short on time, it can also be mixed directly into the foundation, achieving equally effective results, reports the Mirror. Specifically designed for mature skin, the primer contains aloe vera and silica, ingredients known to 'fill open pores and fine lines', providing an ideal base for long-lasting makeup. It helps prevent makeup from 'disappearing' during the day, reducing the need for constant touch-ups and ensuring a 'fresh' look all day. The primer has received a plethora of positive reviews from fans, with over 300 shoppers commenting on this makeup essential. One customer shared: "This was the first product I ever bought from LFF, some 9+ years ago, and I've been purchasing it regularly ever since. Foundation simply glides on top of it. If in a hurry, mix it into your foundation." Look Fabulous Forever Linkby Smooth Like Silk Face Prime Face prime with aloe vera and silica fills open pores and fine lines and provides the perfect base for long-lasting makeup From £ 29 Look Fabulous Forever Buy Now Several customers have claimed that it's 'better' than the popular brand Benefit. One remarked: "I used Benefit pore minimiser which was OK for my open pores on my nose. However, this primer is so much better. The primer blurs my open pores more effectively than Benefit. So good that this is my 2nd bottle." Another added: "For years I have been using Benefit pore minimiser as a primer and to reduce my open pores mainly on my nose. I find Benefit is the only primer I can use with other brands of foundation and to hide my pores until now. This Smooth Like Silk Primer is even much better. Not only does it minimise my large nose pores, it blends smoothly with other brands of foundation, makes my skin look even and smooth. For a 66 year old lady to receive a compliment from a 30 year old says it all. I definitely recommend this primer." While the formula has received high praise from many customers, some have expressed dissatisfaction with the packaging. One customer shared: "Game-changing product! Just a tiny amount goes a long way to make skin smooth as silk and primed so that foundation glides on evenly and stays put all day. The only thing I would change would be the packaging. A lightweight plastic squeezy tube would be easier to pack when travelling. I want to take this key item everywhere I go." (Image: Look Fabulous Forever) Another fan of the primer commented: "This primer does feel 'smooth like silk' on application," but added, "However, have rated 4 stars instead of 5 because I find the square shape of the container takes up too much room in a make-up bag." Some beauty enthusiasts have even abandoned their foundation for a more natural look since switching to the Look Fabulous Forever primer. One such customer enthused: "Absolutely love this product out of all LFF products this is hands down my number 1. Why? It does exactly what it says it will do, no faff no fuss. I wear it every working day, it smooths my complexion beautifully so much so I hardly ever wear foundation. Just a bit of Rosy Glow and lipstick! Ordered 2 bottles as I just ran out and was having withdrawal symptoms." Primers with a similar consistency, sharing key ingredients such as Cyclopentasiloxane and Dimethicone Crosspolymer like the Look Fabulous Forever primer, are compared to the likes of Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat Blur Primer, typically £36, and Lancôme La Base Pro Perfecting Makeup Primer, usually £35. Yet, Look Fabulous Forever sets itself apart because it is crafted especially for mature skin. The enterprise was initiated by Tricia Cusden at the ripe age of 65, with the brand having just toasted to its 11th year in business. "I launched Look Fabulous Forever at the age of 65 because I felt largely invisible to the traditional beauty industry," said the founder. "I was also finding it increasingly difficult to find makeup that really worked on my older skin and have come to this business as a consumer - all our products are formulated so they perform brilliantly on older skin. At Look Fabulous Forever we want you to look fabulous whatever age you are without worrying too much about the odd wrinkle or grey hair." Intrigued customers seeking to explore more from the brand will be pleased to know that the retailer is presently providing an offer on a collection of primers. Valued at £83, the set is currently available for £59, featuring the Never Feather Lip Prime and Smooth Out Eye Prime, along with the Smooth Like Silk Face Prime. The eye primer provides a flawlessly smooth, neutral base to prevent your eyeshadow from settling into fine lines and maintain vibrant colours throughout the day. Meanwhile, the lip primer is crafted to seal the edges of your lips, preventing your lipstick from bleeding into the fine lines around the mouth. With a total saving of £24, and including a complimentary makeup bag, each of the primers comes in at less than £20 as part of the set. This could be an option worth exploring for those considering revamping their makeup bag with products more suitable for ageing skin. Alternatively, beauty enthusiasts can get their hands on the 'game changer' Smooth Like Silk Face Prime here.

The £19 blusher being called a game-changer for mature skin - shoppers say it 'lifts' the face and is 'perfect for older skin'
Daily Mail journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission - Published: Updated: Mature women are ditching powder blushers in favour of one cream blush that is 'perfect for older skin', and are reaping in the compliments. For a pop of healthy colour on mature complexions, scores have recommended the brand Look Fabulous Forever. A beauty line specifically for older women with a 'pro-age philosophy', the brand's £19 Real Radiance Blush is being hailed as a great makeup tip for mature skin types, and it could be the game-changing tip you need. Look Fabulous Forever Real Radiance Blush Helping to bring life and a youthful flush to the skin, the Look Fabulous Forever's cream-to-powder blusher has become a bestseller. It glides on smoothly as a cream and then dries as a powder for long-lasting colour. It's available in six flattering shades and is also available as part of a beautiful refillable compact set. £19 Shop Melting seamlessly into the skin, the Real Radiance Blush from Look Fabulous Forever has been touted as a great makeup tip for mature shoppers looking to liven up their complexion with a healthy flush. Makeup founder, Tricia Cusden, created the range of make-up and skincare specifically formulated, made for and attractive to older women. Enhancing beauty in older faces, this is a brand that will help you celebrate your age. And the cream blusher is a brand bestseller, with scores of happy users raving about the 'lift' it gives the skin. 'This is a very good stay put blusher,' wrote one thrilled shopper. 'I use Rosy Glow which really suits my fair colouring and gives me the 'lift' I need.' As we get older, our skin loses hydration and becomes more absorbent, which can cause makeup to settle into fine lines and make the skin appear dry and dehydrated. Swapping to a cream blusher can help to liven up the face with a healthy flush without enhancing the look of fine lines and also create definition by adding structure and depth to the cheeks. The £19 Real Radiance Blush could then be the under £20 beauty product that could make all the difference to your radiance. A perfect hybrid of cream to powder, the formula glides on smoothly as a cream and dries as a powder for lasting colour. And shoppers are seriously impressed. 'I must recommend the blusher to you, it is so nice to use,' confirmed another Look Fabulous Forever fan. 'Easy to blend and looks so natural, I had so many compliments about how well I looked. The blusher really lifted my colour and stayed all day.' For the best results, Look Fabulous Forever recommends swirling your fingertip in the blush compact, then gently dab the blush on the apples of your cheeks, bringing it slightly up and out towards your temples. You can also take a blusher brush and use light sweeping motions to blend into your skin for an airbrushed finish. 'So pleased to have found a blusher with such a good texture that stays put unlike so many that soon disappear' agreed another. 'I have been using Rosy Glow for a while now and would be lost without it.'
