Good serums for under makeup?

Hi everyone! I have combo skin but currently am leaning a little dry. I'm looking for something to brighten and hydrate my skin and sit beautifully under my foundation. I read recently in a refinery 29 article that you can prevent your foundation from losing moisture to your skin and looking like it's sitting on top of your face by using a moisturizing serum underneath. Wondering if anyone with similar problems has any tried and trues! Thanks!

Re: Good serums for under makeup?

Something with hyaluronic acid as the main ingredient would work well!  That will combat the dryness and deeply hydrate the skin.  You'll want to try a few and see what works best under the foundation you use.  Sometimes the ingredients don't play well together and start to pill or look weird throughout the day - it just depends on the product combination. 

 

That said, I love the Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench serum (the moisturizer is good too).  It has a super light gel texture that would sit nicely under foundation.
