Answer 1

I had the same problem too, my problem was with liquid foundation and even with some powder ones. My face would peel but not only that my pores became very clogged and i breakout so much. Well one day i decided to by L'oreal bare minerals powder foundation and at first i did break out a bit my skin did not become dry ever and that's what i been using for almost over a year now it works great make sure you wash your face put a moisterizer with spf of at least 15 wait till it dries maybe 5 min then apply the foundation. You will really love it you don't even have to put a whole lot a little will give you great coverage will make your skin flawless. and yes i also exfoliate with st. ives every other day don't do it everyday.  

Answer 2

Exfoliate tone and moisturise!! x

Answer 3

my skin was very dry and i went to sephora and they recommended clinique super-moist foundation. it is pricey but it moisturises ur skin and its very light u don't even kno ur wearing it.

When your skin is sunburned and peeling, unfortunately that means it's actually damaged and you really need to giv it a little time to heal. you should use much less foundation if at all while this happens. DONT harshly exfoliate as this will just make it worse. Try a moisture mask that you can get in a sachet, or chat up a clarins consultant in your local dept store and get a free sample. I would switch to a tinted moisturiser if you can;t live without coverage as they will be better to encourage healing and let your skin breathe.

I would go for a good moisturiser and some bronzer instead. Play up your eyes or lipstick and no one will notice your peeling nose.

Good luck

I'm not an expert on makeup but I'd recommend that you stop using foundation on the peeling parts and instead use aftersun and moisturiser.Good luck :)

Answer 7

I know exactly what your going through. Use either, the neutrogena wave, or an electric toothbrush. Lol, you wash your face the normal, befor you wash it off, turn on your electric toothbrush and GENTLY massage it over your skin. Only use electric cuz its steadier than using a manual on your beautimous skin. As for your foundation, use powder only, with concealer where you need it.

hope it helps deary
