5 Moisturizer and Foundation Combinations That Will Save Your Skin This Winter

Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation + Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream

A powerful foundation deserves a powerful moisturizer for prep, which is why we always like to start with the Ultra Facial Cream before a heavy-hitter like Luminous Silk. Not only does this moisturizer prime your skin nicely, it also works to enhance your natural dewiness to make this foundation look even better.

Lancôme Skin Feels Good + Youth To The People Adaptogen Deep Moisture Cream

Lightweight face makeup doesn’t get much better than this! This moisture cream contains natural extracts from herbs and mushrooms that serve as a great base for this buildable coverage foundation that’s super light to the touch.

IT Cosmetics CC Cream Oil Free Matte + CeraVe Moisturizing Cream

For major hydration with a natural finish, look no further than this CeraVe and IT Cosmetics combo. While the moisturizing cream will do heavy duty lifting to make your skin a whole lot less flaky, the matte foundation will work to keep you shine-free but still hydrated.

Maybelline Fit Me! Matte + Poreless + First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream

This Ultra Repair Cream underneath a medium coverage formula like Fit Me! is another one of our favorite combinations. Your skin will feel revitalized after the moisturizing step of this duo, and will appear blended and smooth once you layer the foundation on top.

NYX Total Control Drop Foundation + Glossier Priming Moisturizer

Achieving that perfect IG-worthy selfie begins with a great set of products, and that’s where Priming Moisturizer and the Total Control Drop Foundation comes in. This light, airy moisturizing product will hydrate your skin without making it feel greasy — and leave it completely ready for a blendable velvety matte formula for the complexion of your dreams.
