Looking for help from the lifelong experts! My mom (early 70’s) has asked for help with skin care and makeup. Normal to dry, lots of pigmentation and age spots. Looking for basic care - cleanse, tone, moisturize. Suggestions for a serum and masque would be a treat. I was considering ordering the Eminence Age Corrector Starter kit, or the Dermalogica Age Smart Skin kit, for her to try. (Thinking a starter or travel kit may be a good way for her to try a couple of product lines.)
Also suggestions for a foundation for mature skin would be appreciated.
Thanks everyone  |

Hi
Dermalogica is OK as an intro to a good routine but the concentration of all their actives are very weak.
Eminence is OK for someone who likes fruit and plant extracts. They certainly feel nice but not going to change the skin in my opinion.
What has she been using so far?
I think go for products with multi vitamins, peptides and gentle exfoliation (AHA) serums.
You can pick and choose from brands like Skinceuticals, Cellex, IS Clinical, Cosmedix and EmerginC if you would like to buy fr EDS.
Otherwise, choose ENVIRON. Go for a few professional treatments 1-2 weeks apart and buy some of their home care products as advised by a trained ENVIRON aesthetician.

Paula's Choice might be an option to consider:

For the makeup aspect, does your mom prefer liquid or mineral foundation? |

| Facial skin is closely related to physical health. I hope your mother will exercise more to make her body healthier and more vigorous, so that her skin will also be improved. |

She is very active for her age. Thank you. |

I love the Super Serum by IS Clinical, it is wonderful for mature skin and gives a bit of glow that makes your skin look youthful. Which is why I still swear by Proheal Serum 15 years later!
Followed by the IS Clinical HydraCool Gel, it is perfect for daytime use. And for nighttime you could follow up with a gentle cleanser such as J&J pure cleansers or a twice weekly exfoliation and a good Decluer balm.
Skin is more fragile and thinner at that age so you want to treat it gently. |

Backing up Paula's Choice.
Their liquid exfoliating products are wonderful and very gentle. Which is important for someone who never used acids before.
For pigmentation i would recommend zinc oxide based creams. Any good physical sunscreen will work. |
