Looking for a good foundation...

[NicolettaRose]

I have a really hard time finding foundation and I was just wondering if any of you gals might be able to recommend one for me. The problem is, I have pretty dry skin and it has gotten drier since I have moved to the San Fernando Valley, so when I put a lot of different types of foundations on my skin, they just kind of sit there and look cakey, the same is true with powder. Since my skin lacks oil production, I was told by a couple of people to try oil-based products, these go on great, but then after a hour to in the So cal sunshine it slides off.

Can anyone recommend a good foundation? Preferably with an SPF and preferably one that is not too heavy.

Hi Nicoletta,

I think we have a thread that started with someone asking the same question--foundation for dryer skin. You might find some suggestions here:

I'm afraid I don't have any suggestions myself. I've yet to find my dream foundation, but I have heard very good things about Laura Mercier and Shiseido foundations.

Good luck!

Totally off topic (well kind of) I read "foundation" and I was wondering what a foundation garment had to do with dry skin? And then I realized I was in the beauty room. hehe.:eusa_doh:
Sorry, had to share my blond moment.
