Combination skin foundation ranking – best combination skin foundations of 2023
Combination skin is a combination of dry and oily skin. For this reason, it requires two-phase care - moisturizing dry areas and mattifying oily areas of the face. That's why a good foundation for combination skin should mattify the skin, moisturize it, and cover up any imperfections. It should blend perfectly into the skin, regulate sebum secretion and not cause a mask effect. Ideally, its texture should be very light so that it does not weigh down the skin. The shade of the foundation for combination skin should be a half-tone lighter than the complexion. This will give you the most natural visual effect. If you have this type of skin, check out our ranking of the five best foundations for combination skin.

Nutridome's light foundation with covering and mattifying properties is designed especially for combination, oily and problematic skin. It provides perfect coverage with a powdery finish to prevent the skin from shining 👏. Our testers admitted that the Nutridome foundation covers up all imperfections, blends perfectly into the skin tone and, most importantly, does not cause a mask effect 😍. They also paid attention to the skincare effect of the cosmetic. Thanks to the content of glycerin, which moisturizes and regenerates the skin, the foundation is also suitable for people with dry skin. The formula is enriched with mica content, which makes the skin of the face subtly illuminated and, as the testers stated, even radiant 🌟. The application of the foundation is trouble-free, it is very easy to apply and it does not require any touch-ups, as it stays on the face all day 🤩. Nutridome foundation is available in 5 different shades to make it easy to match your skin tone. For example, shade 03 is recommended for olive 🌿 skin tones. According to our testers, this foundation deserves a 5 grade with a plus!!‼️, even despite the limited availability.

Pierre René's Skin Balance Cover waterproof ☔️ foundation has won the sympathy of our testers for its properties that perfectly cover imperfections, perfectly match the skin tone, high durability and for its skin-caring formula 💕. The composition includes vitamin E, a skin tightening complex and plant extracts that increase skin elasticity, moisturize it and improve its firmness 👏. The foundation is enclosed in a very elegant black bottle, and the dispenser in the form of a pump, according to the testers, improves the application of the cosmetic. The Skin Balance Cover foundation is characterized by a specific cookie 🍪 scent, which, however, is not to everyone's liking. The cosmetic is available in 7 shades. Unfortunately, you can't get it in every brick-and-mortar drugstore, and its price is quite high.

Total Cover by Golden Rose is an opaque foundation and concealer in one designed for people with combination, oily and problematic skin. According to our testers, the cosmetic works much better when applied to the face 🥰 than to spots on areas that require coverage. A large number of testers stated that when used under the eyes 👀, it does not look aesthetically pleasing and is too heavy. A big advantage of the Total Cover foundation is the content of SPF 15 😎 and vitamin E, which inhibits the aging process of the skin, as well as its durability 👍. Some of the testers pointed out that the foundation darkens on the face after application, and despite the availability of 7 shades, most of them fall into pink tones.

The Studio Fix Fluid foundation by MAC is designed especially for people with combination and oily skin. It contains substances that regulate sebum secretion and a protective SPF 15 filter ☀️. After application, it provides a powdery, matte finish. The first thing that the testers noticed was the very unpleasant smell of the cosmetic, but fortunately after some time it becomes less intense. The light formula of the foundation does not cause a mask effect and does not weigh down the skin 👍, although some testers have found that it does not stay well in the T-zone and shines quickly on oily areas of the skin. Studio Fix Fluid foundation is quite expensive, but it is available in so many color variants that you can get dizzy from the number of colors 🤪.

The Scenic Make-Up foundation created by the well-known actress Krystyna Janda is designed to perfectly cover the imperfections of combination and oily skin so that the face looks flawless even in the glare of the 📸 camera. Well... according to the testers, the coverage after application is average and the foundation does not cope with masking, for example, enlarged pores, and additionally oxidizes. The Stage Make-Up Foundation is based on a ⛩ Japanese formula enriched with an optical concealer. The light, creamy texture spreads well on the face without causing a mask effect 👍. The testing group complained about the availability of only three shades of foundation and its average durability.
