Which type of foundation is best for combination skin?
The best foundation for combination skin should combat oil and shine, while soothing areas of dryness and irritation. Our STUDIO FIX FLUID SPF 15 is a great foundation for combination skin because it controls shine and provides lasting coverage for 24 hours. The breathable formula is smooth to apply and easy to blend, plus the SPF 15 will keep you protected from UV damage during the day.
If you have combination skin, we recommend using one of our specially-formulated primers before you start to apply any makeup. This prepares the skin, resolves oiliness, and makes foundation easier to apply. If you’re looking for a full coverage foundation for combination skin, we recommend a lightweight liquid foundation with a matte finish.
How do you prepare combination skin before makeup?
After cleansing, prepare the skin by moisturising and using a primer. PREP + PRIME SKIN is a great option for anyone with an uneven skin tone, as it actively works to reduce redness. Your skin will be smoother and softer, and your foundation will be less likely to cake or sink into fine lines.
What is the best primer for combination skin?
Another great option for combination skin is our PREP + PRIME FIX+ mist. This primer gently refreshes the skin and finishes makeup – plus it’s packed with nourishing vitamins and minerals. The green tea, cucumber and chamomile blend is perfect for soothing irritated skin, plus it will keep your skin hydrated throughout the day.
