Hi, I wanted to ask if you anyone could recommend me some foundations good for dry skin? I want to try something different! I have been using Fenty Beauty at the moment, which is great actually.

Recommendations

With having medium skin tone, when first putting the powder on it can look too fair but throughout the day it blends in really well. Also you have to make sure to use a blending sponge or powder brush to spread it across smoothly.

I have been repurchasing and using The Laura Mercier Translucent Powder for the past 5-6 years now. It has Vitamin C + E. It blurs the looks of pores and gives a smooth look to my skin. I have very dry skin but it doesn’t dry my skin out or look cakey. I have had photoshoots done with this powder on and there has been no photo flashback. Rather it gives a flawless base and feels very lightweight on my skin. Highly recommend 💃🏽🫶🏽

The downside of this lip paint is that it’s similar to paint, it can get everywhere. So be mindful if you’re going to be eating as it can get messy.

I love the Uncuffed colour in Fenty Beauty Stunna Lip Paint Longwear Fluid.
I’m sold on the colour as it’s highly pigmented. I use a lip pencil first then the applicator, which is amazing.

The cream is very runny, so it comes out the bottle quick. However due to it being light, it can easily be applied.

Sunscreen. The Roche Posay SPF50+ Sun cream is definitely one of the best sun creams that I have used. It doesn’t leave a white cast when applied and isn’t thick either.

It was a little sticky when I first put it on the skin but it dries out quick. The eye area has to be avoided to prevent irritation so it’s best to use another makeup remover for eye makeup. 

I received the Rice Active Essence Cleansing Water for free from Picky and The Skin House in exchange for my honest review.

I love the look and texture of the cleansing water especially after a quick shake. The cleanser was hydrating and it removed makeup and impurities well. I used a cotton pad to use it on my face and neck. It didn’t have to be washed off after using as it didn’t create a foam. The cleanser is fragrance free so there wasn’t a scent. This can be used morning and evening.

Final Thoughts: I would give the foundation a 3/5 as I liked the application and love the ingredients in the foundation. I’d like to try a lighter colour sample to colour match my skin tone. 

I received a sample of the new Teint Idole Ultra Wear Foundation in shade 335W and 400W. 

The shade: The 335W was more near my shade and the 400W was too dark for my skin tone. I possibly needed a shade lighter but with baking and using powder it still blended in well. 

My thoughts: The foundation has a matte finish, it’s very thin so you build your foundation base without realising that too much is on the skin as it feels breathable. It feels very natural on the skin.

Ingredients: The foundation includes Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin E and Moringa. It also has SPF 35 which is a bonus.
