I used to love Dior Forever but my skin has changed and it's starting to look dry and patchy on me now and is accentuating my fine lines.

I prep my skin well and I've tried various primers - it helps a bit, but once I finish this bottle I think I need something different.

I like a slightly dewy finish, but my skin's quite shiny with moisturiser and serum on, so nothing too glowy.

I've been using the Vichy Aqualia serum too, it's really good isn't it? Not mad on the fragrance though. I haven't tried the Superdrug one, I'll hunt that out too, thanks.

Is it going on patchy, or is it getting patchy throughout the day? The latter would indicate your skin is dehydrated, rather than actually dry.

My skin is like this, I use Estee Lauder Double Wear, and apply with a beauty blender BUT I add a drop of oil to the foundation before I apply.

The oil doesn't affect the coverage, but it does make it glide on much more easily & doesn't clog up.

I also use Estee Lauder cleanser for dry skin (which I also use a couple of times a week as a moisture mask)

I've recently tried Bobbi Brown Serum Foundation and really rate it. Great coverage and didn't stick to my dermatitis.
