Hello everyone.
I purchased the Loreal True Match foundation in the shade Ivory a few months back.At that time my skin was pretty oily so the foundation was great for my skin type.
But now since I am taking a treatment for my acne,my skin has turned kind of into a combination skin.
It is okay otherwise,without any makeup but when I put this foundation on,my skin looks really bad and dry.
I moisturise really well before applying it but it doesn't help at all.
Moreover I feel that the shade is a little too light for me. :(
I don't want to buy another foundation right now because the bottle is pretty full and I can't even give it to anyone because no one has the same skin tone.
Please help.


I have uploaded a picture to give you an idea of how it looks like.
It might look okay-ish or not that bad but in person it looks really cakey.

Mix it with your daily moisturizer and use it as a bb creme may be?

And since you're taking treatment for acne you should be using heavy products on your skin
You should let it breathe. Do you use foundation daily?

Well then may be foundation and your medication or what you use for acne may be reacting to each other I mean they don't go together that's what I feel

Try to use 2 light layers of moisturizer instead of one! :)

I would look into purchasing a new foundation, like you I have combo skin and I use the Covergirl Outlast Stay Fab 3-in-1, and it has a whole bunch of colors and Ivory is one of them, and it is my holy grail!!
