The skin becomes drier in winters and hence you need extra care to keep the skin moist and supple. If the skin isn't in good condition, applying make-up tends to cause more harm to the skin. Hence, it is important to have moisturised skin during winters. Here are a few tips to keep in mind when you apply make-up.

Foundation for dry skin

Foundation is supposed to be the most important step in the process of make-up. But if you have dry skin, you may find it hard to apply the foundation and you may find some patches all over your skin. Opt for liquid formulas that are oil/ water-based. Using foundation in powdered format will just complicate and you will notice patchy skin. This is one of the most crucial make-up tips for dry skin.

Opt for Cream Blush

Whether it be your bronzer or blush, go for cream-based make-up. Powder-based make-up will make your skin dull. Liquid blush is not only smooth, but it also lasts longer. Also, use a setting spray instead of powder.

Stay clear off Matte Lipsticks

Lips have a high tendency to make your skin and face appear dry and dull. Start by using lip moisturiser that will help keep your lip foundation strong. Opt for glossy lipsticks that will help you master your make-up. This is one of the best make-up tips for dry skin.

Refresh your Make-up throughout the day

For dry skin, it is important to check up on the make-up after every few hours. If your skin starts becoming flaky or having dry patches, it is time to revive your skin. It is then very important to moisturise your skin at this point as it needs nourishment. Moisturing the skin will also make make-up look a little less dry and cakey.
