So I'm doing my friend wedding makeup, but she has some wrinkles around her eyes that look worst with foundation. I know that with wrinkles, less is more, should I just use some concealer in that area? or there is some product (like primer) or foundation that could help with that?

She also doesn't like foundation on her face, but I'm a bit afraid of using a tinted moisturiser on a bride, should I do it?

I know Estée Lauder has this really thick foundation for woman with mature skin.

I may be wrong, but I think that a thick foundation probably it will crease on the wrinkles?

For bridal you have to use a foundation, maybe nothing too heavy. But definitely something with more coverage then a tinted moisturizer.

She'll be wearing her makeup all day, there will be pictures and videos and you'll be able to see everything. A tinted moisturizer just can't hold up to that- just make sure she's comfortable.

I would use an eye cream before hand and let it soak in before apply concealer. Use concealer but make sure it's blended it a lot

Definitely moisturize, this will hydrate the skin and slightly diminish the appearance of wrinkles. I say just go easy on powder products, they settle into fine lines and make them more obvious. Cream foundation is probably the best bet, and don't forget to prime! That should fill In some of the lines and help the foundation glide on top. :)

Hi lovely
What I would do in this situation. Is use a moisturizer for her skin of course. Since she doesn't like foundation as much turn to a BB cream. Then I would use a liquid base or a cream base brightener. I would use that as my concealer but I would apply it towards her tear duct the reason why I would apply it there because it's taking away the focus from her wrinkles and also apply a little half way underneath her eye. Blend it out of course with a little concealer brush just don't apply it where her wrinkles are. Cuz you don't want to highlight her wrinkles of course. Then use a light weight translucent powder. I hope my suggestion helps lovely.
