Top 5 anti-ageing foundations

Shiseido Hydro Liquid Compact

What's in the bottle? It's a convenient foundation compact containing a formula that is just as moisturising as its bottle counterparts. Compact foundations can be drying but technology has advanced and this one glides on like a dream.

Anti-ageing benefits? Its water base means it's great if your skin needs extra hydration. It also includes light-giving and colour-correcting technologies and moisture agents for mature skin.

How to apply? Use the applicator sponge from the centre of the face outwards. For a sheerer coverage, slightly moisten the sponge first. Make sure you clean sponges regularly by washing in warm water and mild shampoo.
