Top 5 anti-ageing foundations

Daniel Sandler Super Mineral Make-up

What's in the bottle? A mineral liquid foundation, which means no unnecessary ingredients such as talc, fragrance and oil. Instead, natural minerals such as mica and skin-friendly vitamins make up the formula, giving it real skin benefits. 

Anti-ageing benefits? The light-reflecting properties in mineral foundation are great for combating dull, lifeless skin and liquid versions are better than powder at filming over fine lines. This particular one is super-soft and moisturising - ideal for ageing skin that's constantly in need of extra hydration. It also contains a sunscreen and a blend of antioxidants to help protect face from further damage.

How to apply? Lightly pat into skin around the eyes, nose and mouth.
