Dry flaky skin? There's a perfect foundation for that...
The best way to look after dry skin is to treat it with as many hydrating products as possible. That means using a nourishing cleanser, a hyaluronic acid serum, a tip-top moisturiser and the best foundation for dry skin. Armed with the right formula, the best foundation can deliver a hit of moisture to your skin while simultaneously bathing it in a veil of pigment.
It’s all about knowing what to look for. Get it wrong and you might end up with a formula that settles in creases and cracks or makes flaking look worse.
Our Senior Beauty Editor, Katie Thomas, has dry skin and she’s always on the lookout for a foundation that makes her skin look and feel dewy throughout the day. ‘The trouble with my dry skin,’ she says. ‘Is that it’s so often crying out for moisture-rich creams that certain foundations just can’t handle my needs. I often use one of the best tinted moisturisers, as I feel like I’m getting that extra hit of hydration. However, they don’t always provide enough coverage, so I need a foundation that can offer me both: hydration and adequate coverage.’
Preparation is key with this skin type too. Foundation won’t gather on dry patches if they aren’t there to begin with. It all starts with a really good skincare routine. With drier skin types, you want to ensure that you’re using things like a hyaluronic acid serum and the best moisturiser for dry skin. If you do have a lot of dry flaky patches and your skin feels rough, then make sure that you are exfoliating regularly. Something like a gentle at-home face peel twice a week should do the trick.
