Why does wearing foundation make dry skin look worse?

Q: I did not realize how dry my skin is until I put on my liquid foundation. Seriously, it brought out all the flakiness and rough patches. I look so much better without the foundation but I need some coverage for blemishes and evenness. Is this weird? Why does makeup bring out the dryness?

A: I would say the look that you’re noticing is most likely because our skin is transluscent. Meaning, light is dispersed through it, but it’s not really transparent. So you can see some veins but not everything that is going on inside your body. The dead skin cells are somewhat transluscent as well. When we put on our foundation, it kills the party. It’s opaque, doesn’t let light pass through as easily and it highlights every dip and curl of the edge of some dead skin and everything else. It’s even worse with dry skin because it sticks in the most awful way and doesn’t spread evenly.I have the same problem as you described. My skin has such a high turnover (you know they say your skin renews itself once a month? I think my face does it twice!) that I have to exfoliate gently every night and day! I also apply moisturizer after every exfoliation. I myself would rather wear makeup to be able to even out my skin and cover certain blemishes, so I gotta keep up on top of taking off the dead cells and keeping it as moisturized as possible.Also, maybe you want to check the ingredients of your makeup. Some can be more drying than others.. and that could aggravate the problem even more.
