LAURA GELLER NEW YORKAward-Winning Baked Balance-n-Brighten Color Correcting Powder Foundation - Light - Buildable Light to Medium Coverage - Demi-Matte Natural Finish

Amazing foundation for women +40. Doesn’t settle in your fine lines, and has buildable coverage without looking cakey. The shades might be a tad darker than it shows in the ads, so you might want to go with a shade lighter than you would normally wear…. As I said, it’s easy to build up the coverage, so with more layers, it gets a little darker, which is why I would recommend going with a shade lighter than you would normally get. I’m a medium, and the medium gets too dark for me after two or three applications…. With a lighter tone, it’s easier to blend into a darker shade, if you need to. But if it’s too dark to begin with, it might be harder to tone it down…. Overall, I love this company. I’m not a heavy makeup user, and usually apply it once or twice a week , if I’m going out. So this is perfect for me, bc I prefer the natural look as opposed to the glamour makeup look that seems to be so popular now…. I don’t have the time or patience for contouring and highlighting, or baking and airbrushing… this stuff simply covers up redness and slight blemishes with one sweep of the brush, and gives a fuller coverage with each layer, without giving that cakey look that liquid foundations are so famous for. (And the reason I’m TERRIFIED of wearing makeup in general…. 😫Base lines😫) As I said, I only wear makeup 2-3 times a week, and I bought this compact 3 months ago. Regardless of how often you use it, I can guarantee it will still last longer than most powder foundations you’ve used in the past. And it feels lightweight and breathable…. Try it and you won’t be disappointed!!

After seeing a ton of ads, I decided to give this product a try. I am so happy I did. It is worth the hype. As someone who doesn't like to spend time on a makeup routine or spend a ton of money on products, this is perfect. It is like magically adding a photo filter. It is easy to apply. I wish I would have gotten the applicator that goes with it, but I bought another that works. It corrects my uneven color on my face. I will be buying this product from now on. If you were curious after seeing the reviews, rest assured this product is the real deal.

I didn’t think I would like it but it was trial and error. I’m 69 so I do have fine lines. I found if I used it on the lower half of my face it accentuated the lines. So I use the Laura Geller on my upper face from the lips up and regular foundation on the lower half.I do like the glow that it gives you. It’s like a sun kissed tan.

I really love this foundation! I am 45 years old and i was looking for something a little easier and quicker to put on than liquid foundation and gentler for my easily irritated rosacea skin. I use a kabuki brush that i already had. This applies and stays really well over just a moisturizer. It melts into my skin unlike any other powder foundation that I have tried and it really does color correct some dark spots and scars I have from acne and age. It also does not emphasize my peach fuzz which is an issue for most powder products that I use and it wears really well throughout the day. I actually like it even better as my oils come through later in the day. I do have hotflashes and it survives sweating fairly well, better than other powder products and better than a lot of my liquid foundations.My only complaint is the shade range. I have very fair olive skin. My best liquid foundation matches are Revlon colorstay in Buff and About-face the Performer in F2Olive. I first got the porcelain because I would prefer a foundation to be lighter rather than too dark and orange. The porcelain was a bit too light and too pink but I wanted to make it work, so I ended up buying fair in addition to porcelain and I mix them which is a perfect match! I got them at 51% off so I'm not too upset about it especially since the formula is so amazing! I hope this is helpful!

I have been using this product for over a year now.. I’ll admit that despite my lower rating and the issues I’ll explain, I’ll probably continue using the product until i can find a better option. To explain further..My biggest issue is that the consistency of this product is VERY unpredictable.. I provided a picture of an example.. the two products in the picture are the exact same product.. baked & brighten foundation in color: fair.. the product on the right is the what i was replacing and the product on the left is what i was sent. Again this is the EXACT SAME PRODUCT. You can easily see how much lighter the newer product is on the left. The blend is so different and is mainly the lighter shade in the blend. I purchased these products only a month apart. This inconsistency has happens very often....The blend is always inconsistent. This newer shade is too light for me so, this means i had to order ANOTHER in a shade darker to mix the two products to match my skin. That’s expensive, unfair and annoying. I should not have to worry about getting a consistent color. Matching this to your skin is definitely not as easy as they depict. I found matching my skin tone to be really difficult initially and with the inconsistent blend, I continue to have this issue.In addition, this absolutely DOES settle in deeper wrinkles and lines.. it even settles in fine lines. This is better than some other foundations meant for aging skin but, this hardly helps the issue with lines and wrinkles.. especially if you sweat! I am almost 42 yrs old so my lines are faint. This settles in the one wrinkle i have near my nose/lip area. I constantly have to reblend this area.This also easily runs and smudges with even mild perspiration.But, it does give a soft appearance. It helps but does not fully cover redness. It’s easy to apply although it can cake up. It will even out skin tone. It feels fine on although multiple touch ups are required throughout the day.Overall, i only buy this product when it’s on sale or i have a discount. I have a hard time with paying full price since there are so many issues with it (about $37 full price).I feel like there are many better products but, it’s very expensive to keep trying to find the perfect foundation for me. I hope to find a better product but will use this until. I guess i recommend it but, if you suspect there is a better option, maybe try that first..Thank you for reading my review 💜
