Choosing the right makeup for your skin type can make all the difference. The right formulas enhance your natural beauty, last longer, and keep your skin healthy. Here’s a guide to picking the perfect products for dry, oily, combination, and normal skin, along with some top Magnolia recommendations.
Dry Skin
Dry skin lacks natural oils, often appearing rough or dull. Environmental factors, diet, and frequent cleansing can worsen dryness.
Makeup Tips:
- Creme Genereuse – 4-in-1 Face Cream: Hydrates deeply while acting as a primer.
- Choose hydrating or luminous liquid foundations to reflect light and give your skin a healthy glow.
- Baume Magique – 3-in-1 Balm: Adds color and moisture to lips, cheeks, and eyes.
- Avoid matte powders or cream-to-powder foundations that can emphasize dry patches.
- Use primers and limit powder to areas prone to shine, like the nose.
- Finish with cream eyeshadow, moisturizing lip gloss, or satin lipstick.

Oily Skin
Oily skin produces excess sebum, often leaving a shiny appearance. Genetics, hormones, and stress can all play a role.
Makeup Tips:
- Choose oil-free or mattifying foundations.
- Multi Function Powder Controls shine and sets makeup.
- Mineral powders help absorb excess oil.
- Use setting sprays and blotting papers to keep makeup in place.
- Avoid shimmery or glittery products that enhance shine.
- Waterproof eyeliners and loose powder shadows prevent smudging.

Combination Skin
Combination skin has both oily (usually T-zone) and dry areas (cheeks). This type requires a balanced approach.
The right formulas enhance your natural beauty, last longer, and keep your skin healthy.
Makeup Tips:
- Opt for cream-to-powder or liquid-to-powder foundations for a matte yet natural finish.
- Primer Mat Absolu – Base & Primer: Evens skin tone, minimizes pores, and controls shine.
- Apply powder selectively: more on oily areas, less on dry areas.
- Use oil-free products for combination skin.
- Mix cream and powder formulas for eyes and cheeks based on each area’s needs.
