Foundation for Dry skin

Can anyone recommend a good foundation for dry skin?
The skin in my chin gets so dry even though I regularly moisturise it.

I've tried that many dinferential foundation and they all just make my skin feel awful and highlight my flaws!

Try a tinted moisturiser? LM Oil Free TM gives nice coverage.

Thanks I don't think that a tinted moisturiser would give me enough coverage, I haven't got the best chin skin!

My skin has suddenly got really dry and my LM oil free tinted moisturiser is just flaking off. I’m watching with interest!

@tasmanian....I’ve found this too. Have you tried the ordinary LM TM? I too have the oil free and am finding my skin drinks it up. But then, I’m old 😐

OP, what about a radiance Serum? Bobbi Brown do a nice one. I had a sample of it and it gave my foundation a lovely glow.

Oh ok, I could try that. I need to go somewhere shopping a think. Get some samples

I like the Korean brand Laneige B.B. cushion, it gives a great glowy finish and coverage. I swear by it now.

Aren't Korean BB creams v pale tho?

I use the sand beige no. 23. Perfect for me.

I just bought Bobbi Brown's Skin serum foundation and it's amazing! It gives a bit of a glow without looking too oily.

I use Lancôme teint idole and I have dry skin.
I (sometimes) use Nivea q10 night cream as a primer which helps it last.
Go to debenhams/boots and get a colour match and a sample. As long as they have your colour match in stock as a sample the name it lasts about a week so you can give it a good test

Estee Lauder Double Wear Nude cushion stick. My skin is as dry as a bone but this looks very fresh and the coverage is good. Doesn't sit in dry bits.

Destinysdaughter · 05/03/2018 23:59

ThePrincipal oh that's good. Can I ask where you buy it from?

ThePrincipal · 06/03/2018 12:39

I first discovered Laneige BB cushions when I was living in Kuala Lumpur, since back in the U.K. I buy them amazon or yesasia because I know the exact shade I need. I don’t know how you obtain samples to work out what shade is right for you though.
