What kind of foundation is best for me if I'm having trouble with dry patches and come coverage issues?

I never had this probem until the past year or 2. I use moistureizer religously, also! I have been using Cover Girl's Aqua Smooth compact but, get dry patches and sometimes it seems like my forehead doesn't get much coverage(expecially between my eyebrows) and just looks dry. I then tried Cover Girl's CG Smoothers Aqua but, it didn't blend well at all and still left dry patches all over. I tried the Cover Girl mousse or whipped foundation(whatever it's called) and got dry patches. I tried the Cover Girl matte powder foundation and still had problems with dry patches and that coverage thing. It seems like no matter what I use I get dry patches everywhere and it looks HORRIBLE!!! It's so embarassing. I use moistureizer everyday so, that's not the problem.


IDK what to do or what to use, now. I looked at Clinque's new moisturizing foundation but, I don't want to spend $20 on something that might not work.


Any help would be greatly appriecated. Thanks!What kind of foundation is best for me if I'm having trouble with dry patches and come coverage issues?
first off the problem could be your moisturizer and skin care. Many commercial products (loreal, neutrogena, almay, dove etc...) use chemicals in their products that are known to cause contact dermatitis and dry skin (yes even moisturizers claiming to help dry skin) your best bet is to get either a natural/organic moisturizer to start or get a bottle of straight jojoba oil or grapeseed oil (great for all skin types, especially acne prone) once you get to that point you must also know that the same companies who use these chemicals in their skin care also use the chemicals in their makeup products, therefore really aggravating your condition. Clinique, estee lauder, Mary kay etc... are just as bad and will eventually make your skin worse over time. My advice to you as a professional makeup artist and skin care specialist is to switch your products to the organic/natural based ones and you will see a tremendous difference. Trust me, celebrities use organic/natural products and their skin is very important, they may advertise for (estee lauder, clinique, revlon, loreal etc...) but trust me, they don't use it. I personally use on myself a very prestigious brand called faerie organic. They sell skin care and mineral makeup. Their makeup is top of the line (better than bare escentuals etc) and I use it on all my clientel) it blends beautifully and they make custom products so if you tell them what your problem is they can formulate something just for you. You can see their site here......http://www.faerieorganic.comWhat kind of foundation is best for me if I'm having trouble with dry patches and come coverage issues?
dermalogica moisturiser and toner is brilliant. its expensive but it is brilliant and lastes for ages.


maybelline liquid foundation is good. it comes in an oval shaped bottle and when you shake it you can hear the ball in it that keeps is from going hard or thick
Try puritycosmetics,co,uk. It is really good!
