The now-$12 serum blurs skin but still “feels light.”
Cakey, mask-like foundation is the antithesis of natural-looking radiance and smooth, even skin. Finding a formula that adequately covers imperfections, blurs wrinkles, and resists settling into pores and fine lines can prove tricky, particularly for people with dry, aging skin.
Thankfully, tinted moisturizers like Laura Geller’s Better Than ‘Block exist. Created specifically for mature skin, the product has become a go-to for shoppers in their 50s and 60s for its smoothing coverage and seamless wear.
Incidentally, Laura Geller products have garnered praise from Oprah—plus, Vana White, Bethenny Frankel, and yours truly. While I have yet to try the skin tint, I’m snapping it up while it’s 55 percent off—plus, an additional 10 percent with the code LD10—this Labor Day weekend. Hurry, the product returns to full price on September 9.
Laura Geller Better Than ‘Block Tinted Moisturizer
The Laura Geller Better Than ‘Block Tinted Moisturizer is a lightweight complexion perfector that contains SPF 50. Formulated for all skin types, including dry and mature, the creamy, lightly tinted formula feels like silk on the skin, and delivers breezy, natural-looking coverage—without caking or exacerbating fine lines and wrinkles.
In addition to its instant skin-perfecting wear, the formula boasts long-term skin benefits. SPF 50, for instance, protects against UV-damage (which is responsible for approximately 80 percent of visible aging). Plus, the product contains ingredients you’d find in your favorite anti-aging serums. Vitamin E, for instance, is present. Also known as tocopherol, it’s a “powerful antioxidant,” according to dermatologist Dr. Nicole Hayre, M.D., who previously told InStyle that it “protect[s] our cells from free radical damage.” Consequently, the ingredient staves off hyperpigmentation, laxity, and other visible signs of aging.
Furthermore, the formula features two beneficial forms of vitamin B. Niacinamide, a.k.a. vitamin B3, which whittles the appearance of large pores and fades hyperpigmentation. Panthenol, a.k.a. vitamin B5, strengthens the all-important skin barrier—in turn, improving hydration levels over time.
Grape seed oil, an under-the-radar anti-aging powerhouse, is also present. The ingredient has been shown to deliver skin-tightening effects, and delivers skin-softening fatty acids.
Finally, rosehip oil, a natural source of wrinkle-smoothing vitamin A, is present in the tinted moisturizer.
Shoppers swear the formula outperforms other face makeup they’ve tried, particularly in terms of its smooth, silky wear. One shopper with mature skin noted it has “good coverage without looking thick or caked-on.” Similarly, another reviewer said it wears “beautifully” and “doesn't look like makeup.” A final fan, who is over 65, said it applies “like a smooth delight,” noting that it “feels light” on the skin despite its complexion-evening coverage.
For an even-toned, radiant complexion—without cakiness—shop the Laura Geller Better Than ‘Block Tinted Moisturizer while it’s more than half off. Remember to apply the code LD10 at checkout to receive an additional discount. Plus, stock up on more fan-favorites, below, before they return to full price on September 9.
