"At Laura Geller Beauty, we believe in beauty with purpose—especially for women over 40," says founder and veteran makeup artist Laura Geller. "Our new SPF primer isn't just makeup; it's a daily act of self-care and protection. I kept hearing from customers that they didn't know how to work SPF into their routines, so we created a one-step solution that smooths skin, extends makeup wear, and helps defend against sun damage and skin cancer—all in one easy step." Skin cancer remains a growing concern, particularly for women over 50. According to the American Cancer Society, melanoma rates in women aged 50 and older have increased by about 3% per year, underscoring the critical need for daily sun protection.

The primer delivers instant, invisible protection—no white cast, no wait.

To celebrate the launch, the brand has teamed up with longtime brand ambassador Fran Drescher.

Fran Drescher, 67, loves this 'bright and beautiful' primer that's over 60% off
Her voice may be a little rough, but her skin is darn smooth. It turns out that Fran Drescher's secret to glowing, age-defying skin may be within reach for us regular folks. Drescher partnered with cosmetics brand Laura Geller on a collection of primers designed to impart a custom finish, from an ethereal glow to perfectly matte. Other stars like Bethenny Frankel and Paulina Porizkova have joined suit. But back to Drescher: The star's go-to? The brand's Spackle Primer. And you can now snag it for over 60% off the list price. This fan- and celeb-favorite usually retails for $36, but you can score it now for just $14. That's also way lower than similar items that can run close to $70! The primer is a must-have in Drescher's makeup bag. She shared on Instagram that it's the ultimate multitasker — it's so hydrating that she can skip using a moisturizer. It's formulated to slough away dry, flaky skin and create a smooth, porcelain-like finish. It's lightweight, not greasy or tacky, so you may even forget it's even there, fans say. Plus, you can wear it alone or under foundation. "It keeps my makeup looking bright and beautiful all day long," Drescher gushed. This Laura Geller favorite has over 2,500 glowing fans, particularly from shoppers over the age of 55 who consider it a five-star buy. "I do have age spots to cover since I am over the age of 70," shared a shopper. "I have been using this moisturizer ... for a month and have decided to totally change to this brand from my older choice that I have used for over 30 years. Definitely helps with the coverup of spots and helps moisturize my face prior to putting the makeup on." ""I'm 55 and starting to wrinkle," Another fan shared: "I've been having a terrible time finding a foundation that doesn't just settle into the wrinkles and make me look cakey and even older. This made all the difference in the world. It's smooth and creamy, which I was a little surprised at because it's called Spackle - I thought it would be thick like drywall spackle! It just glides on, feels great and now my foundation is smooth and floats on my skin!" A third chimed in: "It doesn't take much at all and I added it to my regular face makeup ... Mix it together and it's amazing even on a 65-year-old face!" Like any beauty product, this primer isn't a miracle worker. As one reviewer noted: "The product was okay, I didn't notice a significant change in the appearance of my skin when using it. The cream glides on nicely, makes skin feel nice and soft, and provides an even base under makeup or BB/CC cream." Another shared: "Unfortunately, this primer is not the best one for hiding large pores. It does work for smoothing the surface of the skin and helping grip your foundation. However, if you have large pores, you might want to look elsewhere." If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.)

The couple separated in 1996 and divorced in 1999. Jacobson later came out as gay. She said in a 2020 interview that she was 'kind of dating myself and it's going quite well.' 'I have my gay ex-husband who I love and he fulfills a lot of needs,' she said at the time. 'I have someone on the side who is a friend with benefits.'
