The Best Makeup Atelier Paris Products for Different Skin Types

It's no secret that even the best foundation won't look good if it's not chosen correctly for your skin type. Therefore, before choosing, it's important to consider not only the desired coverage, shade, and consistency of the foundation, but also your skin's needs. It's essential to take daily care of your facial skin, always remove makeup in the evening so that your skin is moisturized and healthy, making it easier and simpler to apply makeup that enhances both your skin's beauty and your most wonderful features.

Dry Skin

Dry skin often feels tight and can flake, and an improperly chosen foundation will further accentuate dry areas, especially by the end of the day. For such skin, moisturizing, comfortable texture products are recommended that provide a natural glow and do not dry out the skin. Make up Atelier Paris pearls include their primers, which are recommended for daily use before foundation, and their foundations, all enriched with skin-friendly vitamins and minerals.

Dry and Dehydrated Skin

Although these terms are often confused, dehydrated skin primarily lacks moisture, making it appear dull, tired, and fine lines more visible. In this case, after your facial skincare routine, before applying foundation, first use the intensely moisturizing Base Eclat or simply the moisturizing Base. The most suitable foundation for dry skin – depending on your needs – is the very light AIR HD foundation or the more covering and hydrating, glow-effect YOUTH Effect foundation.

Combination Skin

Combination skin typically features an oilier T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin) and drier cheeks. For such skin, balanced formulas work best, as they don't weigh down the skin but help control unwanted shine and maintain a fresh makeup look all day. After your morning facial routine, we recommend an oil-free primer, BASEO, and if your T-zone is particularly active, the BASEA anti-shine primer. These help control sebum, preventing the skin from becoming shiny too quickly. Afterwards, the SILK Effect foundation is recommended, which provides a matte finish and excellent coverage. Of course, it's always good to set your makeup with a compact or loose powder.

Oily Skin

For oily skin, long-lasting, matte-finish foundations are recommended, as they help control sebum production and reduce shine. It's important that the formula is light, doesn't weigh down the skin, and allows it to feel comfortable. So, the advice is similar to that for combination skin owners: after your facial routine, use the BASEA anti-shine primer and then the ideally suited SILK effect or the completely matte long-wear foundation FLW. As with combination skin, oily skin requires setting with powder and touch-ups with powder throughout the day.

Even the best foundation won't reveal all its benefits if the skin isn't properly prepared. Daily skincare, hydration, and a foundation (primer) chosen according to your skin type will help your makeup stay beautiful for much longer. Additionally, we recommend not applying foundation with your hands – use a brush or a sponge.

A correctly chosen foundation not only looks better but also allows the skin to feel comfortable all day long. Listen to your skin's needs – it will tell you what it needs most.
