As someone who suffers from both eczema and extremely dehydrated skin, getting my makeup to last all day without flaking or smudging seemed impossible until recently, when I started adding a setting powder to my entire makeup routine. Whether you prefer a “no-makeup” makeup look or a face full of glam, a setting powder is the key to locking in your liquid foundation and base products and letting them last all day. <\/p>\n

However, if you have dry skin like me, you’ll be well aware that choosing the wrong setting powder can feel like a disaster. In fact, if you choose the wrong powder, it can have the opposite effect on your makeup, just like setting powder does.<\/p>\n

And with so many powders available in the market meant only for people with oily skin, how do we know what will actually work for us? Well, to make things easier for those of us with dehydrated skin, I decided to contact <\/strong>Jordana Tissia<\/strong><\/a>Makeup artist and founder of <\/strong>Jordana Tissia Cosmetics<\/strong><\/a>To answer my burning questions about how to find the best setting powder for dry skin. Keep scrolling to see what he had to say.<\/p>\n

Tisia<\/strong> says, \u201cA setting powder is designed to lock in your liquid base products, such as foundation and Concealer, in place, helps extend all-day wear. It works by absorbing excess oil, reducing unwanted shine and smoothing the appearance of the skin.” <\/p>\n

“For me, it’s never about making makeup last longer. While that’s a huge benefit, there’s no point in having long-lasting makeup if it doesn’t actually look good; if anything, it just tempts you to take it off even sooner. It’s really about how the skin looks up close and feels throughout the day. The best powders should blur the texture and soften fine lines, never be heavy. Without being visible or sitting on the skin. I find that powders automatically look dry or cake-y, which is not possible anymore.”<\/p>\n
