I tried a lot of foundations and they all look patchy and horrible at the end of the day. I have combination skin, but I moisturize and exfoliate. I even use a primer bc it was the last thing that I didn't try. what can I do and do you have any foundation recommandations?

Have you tried to spray "mosturising water" throughout the day? I found out that it helps me.

What foundation are you using? The foundation just may not be compatible with combo skin.

Maybe if you try using a foundation suited to your skin. I also have combo skin and I literally go to Revlon Colourstay for oily/combination. I'm on my third bottle it's amazing and worth trying.

I use revlon colorstay, nearly naked and bourjois healthy mix serum.

Is the moisturizer you are using thick? Thick moisturizers tend to clash with foundation. I use my heavy moisturizers at night, and during the day I use a light moisturizer.
You might not need to use a physical exfoliant. Physical exfoliants only attend to the outermost superficial layer of the skin. Perhaps look into a chemical exfoliant, which can exfoliate as far as deep down into the pores and would benefit your skin, unlike physical exfoliants.
I find my make up application to be flawless with chemical exfoliants ( which are very gentle, much more than physical. ) and it creates a perfect makeup base.
Also, make sure you are using the correct primer. If you are using a water based foundation using a silicone based foundation will clash.
Are you using any natural oils? You can apply a little bit of natural oil in your drier spots ( I favor Argan Oil with Jojoba ) to help balance it out.
