Today I am going to be talking about my favorite and most trusted top foundations for Indian skintone for dry skin. I have Indian skintone ( duh!) and I have dry skin; and over the years I have tried many founations. So I know what works for me and what doesnt. This post is going to be a mix of drugstore and high end foundations, so it’ll give you a nice idea as per your requirements and needs. So lets begin.
-
Maybelline Fit Me Matte and Poreless INR 525 : This foundation is meant for oily skin due to the word matte in it. But honestly it works absolutely fine for my dry skin and its not a flat matte foundation either. What it is, is a medium to full coverage foundation with a semi matte finish. And if you have oily skin you can definitely use it and if you have dry skin you can still use it. Its one of my favorite foundations of all time. Its pocket friendly and I love the finish of this foundation. I am in the shade 230 Natural Buff.

Colorbar Ultimate Mousse Foundation INR 800 : This is a mousse foundation which is light weight and mostly targeted towards normal to oily skin, but its my summer time foundation for my dry skin. What I love most about this foundation is that its almost weightless but at the same time it provides buildable coverage. It has a matte finish and it blends seamlessly into the skin. I am in the shade 002 Cafe Misto.

Milani Conceal + Perfect 2 in 1 Foundation + Concealer INR 1250 : Phew thats a big name and this foundation has some tall claims. The best part it lives up to most of them. I have deep dark circles so I cant double this up as my concealer but if you have light under eye darkness then you might not need a separate concealer. This is a full full coverage foundation and it makes your skin look flawless. Thats not even the best part. The best part is ITS NOW AVAILABLE IN INDIA . You can buy Milani products from Nykaa.com now. I am in the shade 06 Sand Beige.

Maybelline Dream Satin Skin Foundation INR 700. This is again a moussy texture foundation which has very light coverage. I use this foundation when I want very light coverage like on a no makeup makeup kind of day . I also prefer this during summers since it has added SPF and is very very light weight on the skin. But the only down side with this foundation for me is that its not high in coverage. But other than that I love the texture and feel of this foundation.

Kryolan Supra Color Foundation : If you have seen my youtube videos then this shouldnt be news to you that I live for this foundation. I use this as a concealer and foundation. I have this foundation in four colors. I like to use it for my cream contour and highlight as well. It is as full coverage as it gets. This foundation however is strictly for dry skin, it would be a nightmare for oily skin. I love this foundation and I am yet to find a concealer that would replace this.

These are my drugstore top foundations for Indian skintone for dry skin. I shall do another post mentioning my favorite foundations that are high end. Also in this post I mentioned the foundations which are available in India . Couple of other noteworthy foundations which I love but are not available in India are :
Loreal Infallible pro matte : I am in the shade 108 Caramel Beige. Its matte and its full coverage and it doesnt oxidize on me and stays on forever. I love this and recommend this if you can get your hands on it.
Wetnwild Photo Focus foundation: This is the newest addition in my collection and has quickly made it to my favorites list simply because its amazing. It is light weight and has a satin matte finish and leaves the skin with a natural skin like feel.
These are my top foundations for Indian skintone for dry skin.
