Current Base Favourites

I like to have a few options when it comes to bases, as my skin changes from day to day. At the moment I have extremely oily patches with extremely dry patches, not the easiest skin type to match to a foundation. These past couple of weeks I've been pairing the YSL Fusion Ink Foundation with the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer and they have become a match made in heaven. 

On those days when I'm rushing out the door, I always reach for the NARS concealer, apply it to my blemishes and redness and I'm done. The shade Chantilly matches my winter skin tone so well it blends like a dream and eliminates further need for coverage. The formula is creamy (hence the name) and doesn't feel too heavy, especially under the eyes. You can get a little carried away though so I always make sure I apply it little by little so it doesn't end up looking cakey. 

On the days when I have a little more time to prepare my face, I like to have a bit more coverage just to get that flawless looking skin. When I first got a sample of the YSL Fusion Foundation I did worry how it would hold up on the drier areas of my skin. The finish is a semi-matte/satin finish so I was a little wary of it clinging to any dry patches. However, I've been very impressed at how well it evens everything out, it works just as well on my oily t-zone as it does on my dry cheeks and nose. 

The two together make the perfect team and give me the exact coverage and finish that I want out of my base. I honestly don't know what I'd do without them. 

Have you found the perfect match between concealer and foundation yet? Do you sometimes use your concealer on its own like I do?
