It seems like everything I try drys out my skin, including the "mosturizing" make-ups. I put on lotion first but still no luck. I'm not looking for the cheapest make-up here, but reasonably priced (maybe under $25). My skin is dry but can get a little shiny. Almost no breakouts, but a little blotchy so I need medium coverage.

Hi dear. Don't give up! There are products out there that will help you. First, you need a day creme or moisturizer that is water based. Lotions that contain mineral oil sit on the top layer of your skin like saran wrap and just get wiped off over time. Water based products will penetrate the dermis and deeply condition your skin leaving it looking and feeling hydrated and healthy.
I recommend Arbonne as they formulate all of their products, including cosmetics, with natural botanicals that are beneficial for all skin types and will not cause dryness or irritation. They are formulated without any chemicals, wax, dyes, fragrances, animal products or bi-products, alcohol, acetone, or mineral oil.
The line defiance foundation is perfect for people with dry skin. Arbonne also has a mineral powder if you wish to give your skin a nice flawless look after foundation. If you love the products, you have the option of purchasing them at 35% off which will save you a lot of money. If you're open to trying a free sample of the day creme, I'm happy to send one to you. If you would like more information on the cosmetics, contact me and I'll get you the info. Good luck.

If your skin is dry as in flaking and feeling like it is tight all the time, I would go with Mary Kay's Full coverage foundation. It has additional moisturizer to help the dryness. If you have oily or kind of in between I would go with Mary Kay's medium coverage. It is my favorite!! I have used it for 3 years now (all oil free). They will stripe you for the correct shade and make it match perfectly so there are no lines across your jaw line. This foundation is only $14.00 a tube and lasts a minimum of 6 months! Enjoy!!

You should try Bare Minerals... it works great! It provides full coverage and is all natural so it should help with breakouts. Also, make sure you are using a moisturizer after you wash your face. Sephora, Ulta and QVC all carry the line.

moisturize well in the morning & at night. don't forget to exfoliate. we all have skin problems especially during the winter, it's just important to moisturize more during the cold months. try using liquid foundation instead of powder or even try a tinted moisturizer. laura mercier makes great tinted moisturizers so does la mer. both are definitely worth trying.

Try a liquid moisturizer from Benefit. Its like $27 but it makes the look come together and makes your skin look hydrated. Its called YOU REBEL
