We enlisted the help of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qvcuk.com\/bobbi-brown\/beauty\/_\/N-1z141viZlfm0\/c.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bobbi Brown&#8217;s<\/a> Senior Pro Artist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/bbpro_amyconway\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Amy Conway<\/a>, who told us what to look for when searching out the best foundations: &#8220;Water-based products are so great for combination skin types because it boosts the skin with water as opposed to oil, which helps to balance both dehydrated and oily areas.&#8221; she says. Amy&#8217;s go-to for combination skin is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qvcuk.com\/Bobbi-Brown-Liquid-Skin-Foundation-SPF-15.product.237202.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation SPF15<\/a>: &#8220;It&#8217;s perfect as it&#8217;s a water-based formula that controls oil whilst hydrating, for an all-day wear that is natural and fresh-looking. I love it for an everyday foundation as it&#8217;s so seamless on the skin.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If you have combination skin, Amy also recommends using a brush to apply your foundation: &#8220;Applying with a brush is always best for combination skin types to ensure you get an even finish that will last throughout the day.&#8221; If you&#8217;re wondering which type of brush, Amy adds: &#8220;a brush like the <a href=\"http:\/\/qvcuk.com\/Bobbi-Brown-Full-Coverage-Face-Brush.product.218534.html?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Full Coverage Face Brush<\/a> is great for this as the bristles give a buffed-in application and creates that airbrushed look to the skin.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>With Amy&#8217;s advice in mind, we rounded up the best foundations for combination skin below.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you have combination skin, you&#8217;ll know finding a foundation that suits the varying oilyness and dryness which makes up your complexion can be tricky.
