Hi - maybe someone can help me with a foundation problem I'm having lately.  My foundation has been separating and "polka-dotting" in the pores on my cheeks and nose and nothing I do is preventing it.  I have tried using mineral foundation, powder foundation, liquid - nothing is working - it's all separating and polka-dotting.

I've been using Olay Moisture Rich Cream Cleanser and Olay Sensitive Skin Moisture Therapy Lotion.  Then I've been applying either mineral foundation or a liquid (I have Neutrogena Visibly Even and Cover Girl Clean Oil-Control - my skin is more combo) and I also have Maybelline Pure Stay powder foundation.  I tried skipping the moisturizer, using a different moisturizer that I can tolerate - nothing is helping.  I still get separation and polka-dots.

I am limited in my skincare options - I have finally found a cleanser and moisturizer that don't irritate my skin, so I don't want to change that.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  Any good foundations that don't separate?  I need something that wears like iron - I work in a daycare chasing toddlers around all day, so I don't have a lot of time for touch-ups.  Anyone?

Thanks!

Beth

P.S. - everything I currently own is oil-free - would that make a difference? Should I try something with a little oil in it?
