Fight Aging: Good Housekeeping's Recommendations for Best Anti-Aging Makeup

March 7, 2011 — -- There are plenty of products on the shelves that promise to cover up the signs of aging, but which ones are really worth your money?

Reporters at Good Housekeeping magazine spoke with dozens of dermatologists and makeup artists to determine the best anti-aging makeup to help dry skin, wrinkles or an uneven complexion.

Rosemary Ellis, the editor in chief of the magazine, appeared on "Good Morning America" today to talk about what reporters uncovered.

Nothing accentuates fine lines like dry skin does, but luckily, there's an easy fix.

Ellis recommended you use makeup that has moisturizing ingredients such as glycerin and hyaluronic acid.

If you have dry skin, avoid any products that have the word "matte" anywhere on the packaging. A matte finish highlights dryness.

If your skin is really dry, you should avoid any base makeup that contains salicylic acid because the exfoliator sweeps away skin's natural oils.

Retinol is among the most popular of line correctors found in foundations and concealers. Adding this form of vitamin A to makeup may increase cell turnover and collagen production, which is the basis of de-wrinkling.

Retinol can make your skin sensitive to sunlight, so if you use retinol, you must use a daily SPF product.

Peptides are wrinkle-fighting proteins that are finding their way into makeup. They are key to collagen synthesis and they enhance the performance of antioxidants.

Their pick: Mary Kay Timewise Luminous-Wear Liquid Foundation ($20, marykay.com) provides a blend of peptides and antioxidants.

Web extra pick: Peter Thomas Roth Un-Wrinkle Conceal and Brighten (concealer/highlighter) available at Sephora for about $35.

Maybelline New York Age Rewind the Eraser ($13 in drugstores.) This foundation contains SPF 18 and goji berries.
