I'm having problems with my foundation, I have dry areas around my mouth. So when I apply foundation ( even bb creams) in that area I looks really bad (dry patches and line occur).

have done krystal peeling and it helped a little, and now I have been considering fruit peeling...

Any suggestions what to do?

I have been putting coconut oil on my lips and around them everynight. Also try a scrub like honey sugar and coconut oil. it sounds it needs moisture.

Well make sure you use a good primer/ moisturizer that matches either the oil or water ingredient in your foundation or concealer..that's important!

Its dry skin and you need to take care if it rather then covering it! I had the same problem only around my eyes so I talked to an expert and this is exactly the same advise I would give to you.
Change your face washes to a cream based wash avoid using toners and don't deep cleanse a lot. Try using coconut oil or aveeno ( the one with the wheat extracts) and lastly one thing that helped me get rid of my dry skin is moisturizer!! When I say moisturizer I mean like 24/7

If you don't have the time to purchase these products you can simply use organic or stuff you might already have at home like butter or olive oil it's gross I know but it works ;)

This happens to me too! Use aquaphor healing ointment and or Vaseline at night before you go to sleep. :) and layer it on really thick.

Thanks girls!
I will try to treat the dry areas from now on, instead of focusing in the foundation.

thank you all for the good advices:)
