Quiz: Which makeup products best suit your skin type?

You wouldn’t choose your skin care products without thinking about your skin type, so why should your make-up be any different? Taking time to consider whether your skin is dry, oily, normal or dull when choosing your base products can be the difference between an average result and a glowing, flawless complexion. So which make-up should you be using? Take our quiz below to find out!
IF YOU GOT A...
Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation and Rimmel London Match Perfection 2-in-1 Concealer and Highlighter.
IF YOU GOT B...
Rimmel London’s Lasting Finish 25 HR Foundation with Comfort Serum and Rimmel London Lasting Finish Primer.
IF YOU GOT C...

My advice was "so try Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation, it blends with skin’s real tone instead of masking it, while soft focus powders help to blur the appearance of pores (hello picture perfect skin!). What’s more the built in moisturising complex leaves skin feeling hydrated for up to 24-hours and includes an SPF 20. Add a little Rimmel London Match Perfection 2-in-1 Concealer and Highlighter to any pesky imperfections that creep up and you’ll be glowing and gorgeous all day!"

The quiz is accurate because I do have oily skin but I've tried the Rimmel Stay Matte foundation before and didn't like it!

I have no idea because it refused to open once I'd clicked.

My result was C, which is probably fairly accurate.

I'm wondering if you have bought and worn this foundation. If so, we're you happy with it? I'm pushing 60 & if you're at the other end of the spectrum that makes a (huge) difference. All the same, would you recommend this product?

I'm 53 and foundations don't look the same compared to when I was younger!

I got C this time. I think it depends on time of year/health. But I'm only owning one foundation at a time!

I got Normal/Combination. I think that's about right, but my skin looks fairly dry. I like hydrating and moisturising things.

I got a C. I have already used Rimmel's 'Wake Me Up' foundation, and am happy with it. I am going to try the concealer next time I'm shopping.

I got B! I really like the interactive quiz, but it seems as thought this whole foundation segment is an ad for Rimmel?

I always need one to help me with my combination/oily skin

Interesting quiz I got a A but I am definitely not normal combination skin as my skin is very dry dull and dehydrated and wrinkled so maybe I could try it again or it's just a very rough estimate

I got D which sounds correct for me. I have used the primer before and I use the same type of powder foundation but I have not used that liquid foundation yet.

A! I never really think about my skin type, I just buy the products people reccomend and I have heard are good!

My primary problem is actually with rosacea (and I imagine quite a few other people have this concern). It would probably improve the Quiz to incorporate this somehow, I mean, I know how to use CC products and what not, but it's just a suggestion :-)

Good read. I love learning new things via this site :)

I think I get too caught up in getting the right the colour rather than worry about the type of foundation that is right for my skin type. Perhaps if I got the right foundation for my skin type I would have less trouble finding the right colour.

I got B, and I was just watching a review on it , so that has definitely sparked my interest

I got A, and I do think it is right. My skin is combination normal, oily in summer, normal/dry in winter.

I got C- but feel as though my skin is more oily than combo- still might try this out!
