Skin Type Series: Dry Skin

When you have dry skin, you  have to find products that will hydrate your skin without clinging to your dry patches, or dry your skin out even more. Remember to start with a skin regime that is tailored to your skin.

Primer:
If your foundation stays well without primer your can skip this step.

1. Laura Mercier Hydrating Foundation Primer
This is lightly hydrating primer that creates a barrier between your skin and the makeup, it works well with sensitive skin.

2. Korres Greek Yoghurt Nourishing Primer
This is silicone free and won't irritate sensitive skin. The primer has a cooling effect which helps tight and dry skin feel more nourished and hydrated.


Foundation:
Look for foundations that say: luminous, illuminating, hydrating, etc. These foundations will give your skin a glow, take away from any dullness your skin may have, and will glide over any dry patches.

1. Maybelline Dream Smooth Mousse
This is a creamy moisturizing formula, that glides over dry patches when applied with a moist cosmetic sponge.

2. Clinque Moisture Surge Tinted Moisturizer
If you have relatively good and clear skin, this tinted moisturizer offers a light coverage and a very hydrating formula.


I hope this post helped! As I have just started to develop dry skin, there is not as much information as the oily skin post, however these are personal favourites.

Summer Lace OOTD and Natural Makeup Tutorial

Hello everyone! Today's OOTD is my favourite summer look. Lace, loose waves, and a natural makeup look. It was nice and warm today so I brought out one of my favourite dresses. It is from American Eagle, and was given to me by one of my friends a few years ago. I like that it is strapless as when I am outside enjoying the sunshine I don't have to worry about awkward tan lines! I went with a natural and glowing makeup look today, and I even filmed it for you! You can watch the video below. It is inspired by the gorgeous Gigi Hadid. xx Jess Instagram: jessicakinnari
