MYTH: With age, add more foundation.
REALITY: Actually, the reverse is true. "As you age, base tends to settle into wrinkles and lines, which makes skin look duller," Dr. Brandt says. This is especially problematic for women over 40, who have already lost some luminosity as the turn-over rate of their skin cells has slowed. Instead, apply a lightweight tinted moisturizer like the NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer ($42; narscosmetics.com) in place of a heavy foundation. See a dermatologist to fix the uneven skin tone that you're tempted to cover up.
