Top 5 Foundations for Dry Skin ♥


 
YSL Touche Eclat foundation
MAC Studio Sculpt foundation
Boujois healthy Mix foundaton
Revlon Age Defying
bareMinerals Original Foundation


L-R: MAC Studio Sculpt, YSL Touch Eclat, Bourjois Healthy Mix, Revlon Age Defying
Centre: bareMinerals


 
 The YSL Touche Eclat foundation is definately my favourite for every day use, its fragrance free and not irritating at all. It doesn't have the heaviest coverage and it is quite a runny consistency but it is nice and buildable with a dewy finish, it also doesn't set or exaggerate them dry bits which is great. I have so much love for this foundation!
 
MAC Studio Sculpt foundation is my favourite for a night out or that special occasion, the coverage is ammmazing and hides all them little lurking blemishes!! Its a gel formula so its not drying, although it is quite thick so i find its a bit to heavy for every day wear.
 
The Boujois healthy Mix foundation is a heavier coverage than the YSL but much lighter than the MAC Studio Sculpt. It does have a slight fragrance to it but its not irritating at all. This doesn't last as long as the YSL or MAC studio sculpt but its still one of my favourites to date!
 
The Revlon Age Defying is pretty similar to the YSL really, it has a very dewy finish with quite a light coverage - maybe a little less coverage than the YSL. It does have a slight scent too. It doesnt last all that long which is why i prefer the YSL, it lasts better with a little powder but that kinda defeats the point of the dewy look.
 
The bareMinerals Original Foundation is a recent find of mine, i was always worried to try it as i had read some really bad reviews. I have the most sensitive skin ever and i have never had a reaction to this. Although it's a powder it doesn't look all cakey and dry which is what i was expecting. I often use a little bit of this to settle my liquid foundation, it leaves a bit of dewyness behind which i love.
 
 
I'd love to know your favourite foundation?

  1. I love the Bourjois Healthy Mix too :) I have also been loving the Garnier BB Cream oily skin version lately, but I don't know if it would suit your dry skin :(

  7. MAC Studio Sculpt foundation is perfect for special occasions. I like the coverage as it is perfect for hiding blemishes. It does not have a drying effect.
