Before applying a foundation, make sure you thoroughly cleanse your skin. Moisturise with an anti-ageing cream that's not too thick (otherwise your makeup won't set) and apply a primer to smoothe out any fine lines. Piling on foundation is a no-no; the idea is keep it light. Apply it with a brush, as this will make it easier to smooth across your skin and opt for a fluid texture that you should apply to the centre of your face, working upwards and outwards without pulling at your skin. You can also apply a highlighter (cream or powder) to reflect light off your features. To get a lovely, peachy complexion, making you look younger, dab a cream blusher onto the top of your cheekbones - a warm pink or orange tone will do the trick. Blend it in over the apple of your cheeks, so that you don't end up looking hollow-faced.Result: youthful, smooth, rosy, glowing skin!
