When choosing foundation for eczema-prone skin, look for products with these beneficial ingredients:

• Hyaluronic acid - helps improve skin barrier and hydration
• Ubiquinone (coenzyme Q10) - helps reduce inflammation
• Glycerin and other moisturizing ingredients

It's important to select foundations specifically formulated for sensitive skin that are free from fragrances, preservatives, and harsh chemicals. Look for products with the National Eczema Association Seal of Acceptance. Many MyEczemaTeam members have found success with higher-end makeup brands, though price alone doesn't guarantee a product will work for you. Always patch test new products before applying to your face.

Pro tip: Using proper makeup tools like facial sponges or brushes can help the foundation last longer. Just remember to clean applicators regularly to maintain healthy skin.

If makeup makes your eczema worse, it's perfectly fine not to wear foundation. The priority should be keeping your skin healthy and comfortable.
