Here's the tricky part - are you supposed to be using powder when you already have dry skin? The answer is, yes!

Having dry skin doesn't mean you can't use powders, you just have to choose the right ones that can help set your foundation without drying out your face.

This cult favourite, Laura Mercier Mineral Powder SPF 15, is the one you should go for. It is infused with minerals that will allow you to set your makeup with a radiant finish so that you can have dewy looking skin!
