A foundation can only cover so much, are you using a concealer as well.
With skin as dry as your you need a hydrating moisturizer, The Body shop have some that are really good for dry skin. Also Biotherm, Cover Fx which is also very good foundation for concealing as well.
Go to www.sehpora.com as they list a large line of foundations.
Just thought of it Avene and La roche Posay are great lines as well.
Let me know if this helps. If not get back to me and I am sure I can find many others.

Hi Thiicknseskii,

I hope you are enjoying the UC Forum. Glad to meet ya!

Rose is right, Avon foundation might be what you are looking for. I have used Revlon and Maybelline but I prefer Avon Personal Match because it does not clog my pores or rub off on my clothes. It covers great, is relatively inexpensive and they ship to Australia. For ivory skin tones like yours they have colors called ivory, nude, bisque and porcelain.

Thanks for your help i dont live in america so ill pass on going to that website
the Avon foundations did nothing for me they made me break out and the colors r too dark a lady in a store applied some loreal make up on me but it was too orange and dark =[ any more help would be great

Maybe if you have dry skin, you should use a tinted moisturiser? It should even out the dry skin and give subtle colour and coverage.

The website I gave is suppose to ship internationally.

You don't say? You must be really fair skinned. In that case I hope you find something that you can use. It must be frustrating finding colors that complement your skin tone. Girlfriend, I wish you luck!
