Foundation Series: Dry/Mature Skin

With so many options available, which is the best foundation for dry/sensitive/mature skin? I’ve found a few excellent foundations over the years. These formulas fit the bill with beneficial ingredients that will moisturize your skin all day. There is a mixture of light, medium and full coverage to suit different needs. Seek out foundations with natural oils and humectants (moisturizers) imbedded within the formula when choosing. It’s also best to choose a cream, liquid or gel foundation, since powders can dry the skin even more. One important thing to note is steer clear of mineral oil. It will clog your pores, and your skin will not be able to release toxins. It really is the worst ingredient so make sure to look out for it!
