Unless I'm using bb cream, I cannot get foundation to look right on my nose! It either gets peely (even when I scrub before) or makes the pores and hairs REALLY apparent, just basically looks unnatural. I already have several primers, so I'm set there, and I don't have any foundation problems on the rest of my face.

Has anyone dealt with this before? Let me know!

That happens to me as well. I don't know what to use. It does it with pimples as well. What does BB cream do for you?

Omg I thought I was the only one Who went thru that but since I've used bb cream it's been good! I say jus use the bb cream! Lol.

For me making sure moisturizing well makes a difference and also a foundation that doesn't have a matte finish.

I would stick to bb cream, but it doesn't really cover the redness on my nose very well. Not the worst problem to have, though.

Also, vielka, what foundation do you use? In your profile pic your skin looks amazing!

Rose, I use macs matchmaster foundation! I love it! It's medium to build able coverage and it doesn't accentuate my dry skin!

Moisturize well and let it absorb for at least 5 minutes, you could also use a pore minimizing primer.

I don't have this particular problem but I just wanted say I really do love this app because it makes you realize that your not the only one who goes through the most insignificant flaws.

Haha! Yeah, I doubt anyone's going to come up to me and point out that my face hairs are really apparent, but I'd just thought I'd ask because I have really odd make up problems that google can't answer, lol.

Try applying the foundation in circular motions. Gossmakeup artist on YouTube has a video about this. :)

For the hair, apply your foundation in the direction your hair grows.
