The choice of a foundation is made according to our desires, but also and especially of our skin type.

The goal ? Avoid having a rendering that is not natural with an unsuitable product, or even contraindicated, for oily, dry or mixed skin.

Cream foundation for dry skin

Dry skin must be sufficiently hydrated to maintain its flexibility. Cream foundations are perfect for nourishing the skin while sublimating the face.

During the winter, the cold is particularly aggressive for the skin, so we do not hesitate to opt for formulas enriched in oil.

The brush application is ideal for this type of foundation and skin, because it allows the moisturizing agents to better penetrate the epidermis. For this, we take a little material and then stretch from the inside to the outside of the face.

Dry and sensitive skin can opt for the silicone sponge or the Beauty Blender , applicators easy to handle.

Foam textures are not recommended because they are dry. Similarly, the powders are not suitable for dry skin because they may cause plaques.

A fluid foundation or powder for oily skin

To eliminate shine, oily skin can move towards a matifying product "non-comedogenic". On the other hand, oily formulas are to be avoided: too nourishing, they risk aggravating the phenomenon, even to favor the appearance of pimples.

Fluid matte textures are ideal because they are comfortable and easy to use.

For a very natural rendering, we fall for foam foundations. Very light, they are pleasant and allow to unify the skin with transparency.

Compact powders are also perfect for correcting imperfections and masking excess oil.

Foam and BB cream foundation for normal to combination skin

Mixed skin must favor a non-greasy foundation based on water, which provides a matte effect without irritating the dry areas.

Fluid textures are perfect for illuminating the face with lightness and transparency.

For a zero defect complexion, the application of a compact powder may be necessary in case of marked glosses, as is often the case on the zone T.

The BB cream is also a very good option. Ideal to take care of the skin while respecting it, this magic product makes it possible to illuminate the face while correcting the imperfections.

With a little covering texture, it can be used every day as a makeup base.

Finally, the cushion cream , a foundation with a very airy texture, is also a practical product suitable for normal skin.

A foundation covering for problem skin

If you have a naturally clean skin, you can settle for light textures such as fluids or some mosses, not very covering. They unify more than they mask.

In case of redness or more pronounced imperfections, the foundation cream or powder is more suitable.

Attention, the use of too much product tends to tarnish the complexion. To banish the plaster effect, do not hesitate to correct the imperfections areas locally with a stick foundation.

For a perfect finish, we finish the beauty of the complexion with a touch of concealer .
