CrayCray 2,636 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I have dry skin type and I'm almost afraid to put on any kind of foundation on my face. Any recommendation on BBcreams that will work with dry skin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter 5,178 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Try to moisturize beforehand as a primer and most BB creams (at least the Korean/Japanese ones) should work for you since most of them have a hydrating part to it. And if you don't want to be too shiny, always just set with powder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

☆Symptoms☆ 8,849 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I've been using Missha Perfect Cover since last year, it's a korean bb cream and it's pretty hydratating so i would really recommend you this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twiceteen 4 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 As others have mentioned, you should invest in a moisturizer. I usually use either CeraVe ($15 bottle w/pump) or Neutrogena hydro boost (jar version/$20). I don't use any BB creams, but I love It Cosmetic's "your skin but better" CC cream. It has SPF 50 and is kinda pricey ($38), but I think it's well worth the price... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But because its the fall/winter season, my skin gets drier even with serum+moisturizer. I will look into that cc cream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixsi 4,799 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Oh if its fall/winter season you should add face oil to your routine. Try argan oil/rosehip oil mix with your moisturizer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SugaJam 3,634 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Thanks for the rec I use moisturizer every night before bedtime. But because its the fall/winter season, my skin gets drier even with serum+moisturizer. I will look into that cc cream. I second that rec.. I have skin as dry as the sahara desert here and I took my moisturizing game very seriously as well. That is hand down the best bb/cc cream (in the truest sense of BB cream) in the US market (it's Korean made ahem take what you may) Some more rec - missha M signature real complete (i have try every single bb cream from missha and this one the best for dry skin, kinda liquidy, medium-full coverage, doesnt have that grey-ish tint like the rest of their bb line, a bit darker than the rest too) - BRTC Jasmine Water BB Cream (this is an old classic in the bb cream, used to be quite popular in the early days, really good for normal-dry skin, medium coverage, but is best for cool tone skin, doesnt really fit for those darker than NC20 imo) - Skin79 Oriental Gold BB cream (the purple one) or Gold (the gold one): The hotpink one is famous but these two are best for normal-dry skin. (very similar to their hotpink but light-medium coverage, feel like a semi thick moisturizer) - US drugstore: L'oreal Lumi BB Cushion (doesnt cling to dry patches, give light coverage, but can be build up to medium coverage)** - UK drugstore: Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Foundation (light and moisturizing, light-medium coverage, very natural finish)** ** my favorite.

Kerfuffle 866 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 - Skin79 Oriental Gold BB cream (the purple one) or Gold (the gold one): The hotpink one is famous but these two are best for normal-dry skin. (very similar to their hotpink but light-medium coverage, feel like a semi thick moisturizer) - US drugstore: L'oreal Lumi BB Cushion (doesnt cling to dry patches, give light coverage, but can be build up to medium coverage)** - UK drugstore: Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Foundation (light and moisturizing, light-medium coverage, very natural finish)** ** my favorite. I second some of these recs. I have dry skin too and I use the Skin79 Gold BB in the winter time - its fancy caviar extracts make it pretty moisturizing. It only comes in one shade though, which I don't think will work for anyone darker than, say, NC25 maybe. It also goes on SUPER grey, but it oxidizes to my proper skintone in like 10 mins. I also just got the Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum and so far I really, really like it. I use one pump for lightweight coverage and a nice natural finish, which is perfect for me. Downside again though is that shade range is extremely limited. Only 6 shades ranging from light to medium tones. I'm about NC20-25 and I wear shade 52 vanilla. What's your budget? If you're willing to spend a little more, then my favourite holy grail Korean BB cushion is the Hera UV Mist Cushion in Ultra Moisture. I know cushions don't seem like a good buy because they only come in 15ml, BUT this one includes a refill, so you're technically getting 30ml, the same as most western foundations/BBs. Moisturizing, beautiful satin finish, light to medium coverage that is buildable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minhyunoonaa 357 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Same as others have said, it's better to put moisturizer before applying. If my skin is really flaky I'll also use exfoliator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makeuppro 0 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 I never use any BB cream for skin hydrating, but I would recommend Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer. You should try out this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
