Can somebody help me? I have tried so many foundations and concealer a but I think it's my technique or brush? I have dry skin around my nose and on my nose and foundation does not cover it.. It makes it more visible. Can anyone help me with a technique or something?

Do you exfoliate before?
a good routine is exfoliate, moisturize, prime foundation.

Make sure you exfoliate twice a week and apply a heavier moisturizing cream to your dry patches twice a day. I use nivea cream on my cheeks because they Peel like crazy. I apply quite a bit at night then a little when I wake up then apply my normal moisturizer on top. when o use a silicone primer it also seems to help. for foundation stay away from matte. I love the loreal true match lumi. it works the best at not making it look worse.

Its definitely important to exfoliate at max twice a week and apply moistrizer and a hydrating primer underneath your foundation. How are you applying your foundation? make sure you are buffing your foundation in and not sweeping. A flat top kabuki is perfect for blending foundation in. How much are you putting on? I recommend starting with a small amount of product and slowing building it up accordingly. Also to achieve that dewy skin look try a water based
setting spray like ud all nighter or chill

Exfoliate around twice a week and put vaseline on the places where its dry and scaly. Also get a foundation thats moisturizing.

Since everyone has said exfoliate I don't feel that I need to reiterate lol but it is important! Also moisturizing!
But after that, make sure you are not using a mattifying foundation. Or anything that'll dry you out.

Good skin care regimen is crucial as you may have read, I like adding hydrating masks to my routine, especially for this time of year! My favorite is glamglows hydrating mask <3 Another thing my skin can't live without is Josie Maran Infinity Creme infused with pure argan oil (: that stuff is the bomb.com and as it hints in the title has "infinite" uses.

Moisturise with a good moisturiser - invest in clinique "supermoisture foundation" it is heavenly. It is for dry skin! It hydrates and gives you a dewy look. It's amazing!!

I have dry skin too and I really like Nivea Daily Essentials Hydrating Express Primer or E45 cream before foundation :)

You should exfoliate and then apply moisturizer.

Exfoliate with a hot soaked towel, tone with witch hazel, apply aloe vera gel, apply thick moisturizer. Let it soak in, and apply thr foundation with a damp sponge. Work in thin layers at a time to avoid cakiness.
