What is the best way to cover-up age spots?

The high tech answer to age spots is to visit your friendly dermatologist and let him or her zap your age spots away with a laser. That's the easiest way to deal with age spots, and you won't have to worry about covering them.

There are creams that fade age spots by the use of bleaching agents, usually some kind of peroxide, but creams take time and persistence, and they may not always do the job you hope they will. Depending on where the age spots are located, you may cover them with your foundation or with a heavier concealer. For hands, backs and other locations, you may want a waterproof, smudgeproof concealer. On your face, you may get by with an extra dot or two of a lighter foundation, followed by your regular color.
