ACNE-PRONE SKIN

• Lean towards a foundation that is non-comedogenic whether it's a liquid or powder. Non-comedogenic products have been formulated to not clog your pores, which won't cause breakouts.
• I'd go with a powder foundation formula vs a liquid one, as liquid foundations generally have oil in them.

DRY SKIN

• Stay away from oil control/ waterproof foundations as they will enlarge any imperfections and dry the skin out more. 
• Find a foundation with a lot of nourishing ingredients like Aloe Vera, or any kind of oil.
• Don't forget though to apply a rich moisturiser and hydrating primer before you apply your foundation. 

OILY SKIN 

• Look for foundations that say oil-free, long-wearing or mattifying.

AGEING SKIN

• When you start to age your skin becomes dryer.
• Stay away from anything that's too thick, or too mattifying on the skin. 
• Make sure to use a foundation with a SPF in it. 

NORMAL SKIN

• You are super lucky as you can choose whatever coverage, finish or formula you want. 
• If you want something lightweight, I would go for a BB or CC cream.
