What's the best kind of foundation for dry skin?
I have been having very bad acne, so my skin is dry from the treatments. It's getting better, but I want to know which type of foundation is best for dry skin (something that doesn't make it worse). I have very sensitive skin, so drugstore varieties probably won't work. I've tried Arbonne, Borgese, Neutrogena, and am currently using Bobbi Brown.
Thanks!

Try a foundation primer like Philosophy clear present to moisten the skin. I have dry skin with the occasional acne and this helps hydrate the skin. Then I use bare escentuals, it doesn't irritate my skin or the acne. It covers the redness and scars. If you are allergic to bismuth then try a different minerals foundation that doesn't contain bismuth. Just stay away from cream foundation because it will make the dry skin more noticeable.

An "Awake" liquid foundation might be worth a try, it's one of the best foundations out there. Awake is a japanese company and their make up is extremely well made. It's very expensive. It runs about 45 dollars but if it doesn't work you can always return it. I know neiman marcus sells it.

Try a tinted moisturizer instead of foundation. or use a mineral foundation. the chemicals in most liquid foundations can actually dry out your skin.
