Very dry skin ... please suggest a good foundation

Over the summer I've been using CC cream, which has been great, but now my tan is fading and it's looking too orange and also a bit too light (in texture). I've tried my last year's foundation (Rimmel 24 hr one highly recommended by MNers) and my skin is just too dry around my nose to use it. I have rosacea, and the medication I use for it makes my skin very dry in this area.

I do try to get rid of the dry skin and moisturise thoroughly, but it's still there, so what I need is a hydrating, oily type of foundation that doesn't cling to all the dry bits.

Can anyone help me please??

Dior Star is excellent - could you try a sample?

I have very dry skin too and use ysl touche eclait foundation. Can I ask what CC cream you use?

I use bourjois healthy mix serum.

It's essential you get the serum if your skin is dry! I also put it on after moisturiser and after pat moisturiser over the top during the day.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Lauren15 I use the L'Oreal redness covering one (it's green) as it works well with my rosacea.
