My skin care routine - I use tropic either x1 or x2 daily
Cleanser, exfoliate 2/3 times a week, toner, moisturiser and a face oil. My skin is very dry/sensitive and this is the only brand that works for me.
I have always suffered from my foundation flaking or creasing so, exasperated, I’ve tried a number of things like using primers specifically to suit my skin type, foundations for my skin type and nothing so far seems to work! I don’t understand why no matter what brand of make up or primer I am using it doesn’t sit well on my face.
I recently read something about silicone and water based products clashing with each other, so I’m wondering if anyone has any advice on which water based products foundation and primer wise are the best?
I am currently using nyx bare with me primer but it seems to clash with my fenty hydration Pro filt’r foundation.
Foundations I have tried-
Maybelline dream satin liquid
Fenty pro filt’r hydrating longwear
Nyx born to glow
L’Oréal infallible total cover
Smashbox bb cream - has been the best so far but they never have my colour in stock
True match
Maxfactor
I don’t contour or cake myself in make up as I prefer rocking a subtle/natural look. I don’t use too much product as I really don’t like the feel of a lot of layers on my face.
I am really desperate to find a brand that works for me as it gets me down and I’m constantly paranoid about how it looks to the point where I’d rather not wear it or go anywhere as I just hate the way it looks on my skin. It’s never smooth or dewy looking it just looks awful and it’s embarrassing.
