I have super dry skin and can’t seem to find the perfect combination of products. I also only wear concealer no foundation. What do y’all use for skincare, primer, and concealer?

You might need a hydrator and a moisturizer... use the hydrator wherever you get really dry and a moisturizer everywhere. A hydrator is going to go deeper into the skin (into the dermis) while a moisturizer only adds moisture to the outer layer (the epidermis). My personal favorite hydrator is the Clinique moisture surge because I have extremely send skin. A lot of Clinique products irritate my skin but not this one.

if you feel like you don’t need anything heavy, maybe try a BB cream? i like this one because i do struggle with acne but i’ve heard that the regular one is just as great if you don’t need that salicylic acid!
@jen im literally wearing it right now, its the best 💯

Hi! So I’m trying to find products to better help my foundation stay on and stay matte. I have very oily skin and have tried so many different foundations and have tried mattifying primers too. They either make me breakout or they just flat out don’t work. I’ve even tried the IL Makiage ‘find your perfect shade’ foundation, it’s better for summer and when I’m more tan, but it most definitely didn’t live up to its promise of staying even after using a mattifying primer. I’m also trying to look for products that aren’t crazy expensive.

I LOVE this primer! ALSO if you want to go the extra mile use Milk of Magnesia before it; works like a charm!
