Dry skin is a huge problem in the winter season and draws attention to the patchy areas of the face. Therefore applying the right product, like foundation is important for not just coverage but also hydration. As dry skin can get quite flaky and textured, you want to select a foundation that will not only give a much-needed boost to moisture levels, but also one that will not settle into lines and dry areas as this can make skin look patchy, older and dull. Here is the list of best foundations for dry skin, which are sure to cover imperfections without making your skin look patchy, scaly and dull.

The glycerin in this foundation is a humectant, and it works to moisturize the skin by drawing water from the air into the skin’s outer layer. While it also serves as a protective layer that helps to prevent moisture loss. If dryness has left your skin looking as drab as it feels, its complexion brightening formula which includes a vitamin C derivative to nix discolouration and turmeric extract to even skin tone can help bring it back to life.
