I have combination skin and by my forehead my foundation keeps braking apart but by my nose it gets oily any suggestions of how to prevent this or suggestions of foundations so that this won't happen??

1- Good skincare (cleansing and using a great moisturizer)
2- Primer, use a good primer for combo skin (I have dry but if you filter settings on Ulta, you can check combo skin, and primers that are good for that will show up).
3- Good foundation and application is key. What are you using now? For combo skin I would try Estee Lauder Double Wear, Makeup Forever Face and Body or Mat Velvet, Urban Decay Naked (not very full coverage though). I personally only like using brushes (looks streaky if you don't wash brushes often enough though!) I use Sephora Pro Airbrush #56. Alot of people use the Beauty Blender but I personally hate it lol but it might work for you.
4- A good setting spray or powder.

So I use a primer and hav a good skincare routine foundation I've actually tried all of those and they broke apart by my forehead any other suggestions??

Switch up products obviously. You can't let using a product that didn't work for you, such as primers and moisturizers, define how every other moisturizer and primer are going to work for you. What are you or have used? I've learned with skincare and makeup though, you basically just have to play around for a while to figure out what works best for you. A good way to do this is by trying samples because trying so much stuff can get really expensive! What foundations have you used? Any of the ones I mentioned?

What do you breaking apart? Acne? Or foundation not staying on your skin because thats a big difference! I thought you meant it wasn't lasting, on a side note, my other comments would still cover the same thing.

Also you said you use primer and have good skincare, but you're still having the issue, clearly what you are using isn't working...
