Okay I have dry skin. It flakes and cakes around my pores and spots when I apply ANY foundation and concealer. I have tried many types and different ways of application.

My spots are dry and scabby and hard to cover. I am 25 years old and suffer from polycystic ovarian syndrome so my acne is hormonal.

What UK products for both skincare and make up would you recommend to get rid of problem and to cover up for flawless finish.

I also have dry acne prone skin. Actually, the more dried out you get, the more you break out. It makes your oil glands go into over drive. I just did a blog post on tips and products to help dry skin.

One tip for acne, and consult a doctor first, is take 50mg of zinc daily, or leading up to your cycle. I started taking a zinc supplement for other reasons and it has *really* cleared up my skin. Again, standard disclaimer, consult your physician before taking any vitamins or supplements ;-)
