When you’ve spent an hour creating a meticulous makeup look, you want it to look flawless all day long. But if you use the wrong face cream underneath, the staying power can suffer. While hydration is key in any skin-care routine, there are certain moisturizers we recommend for layering underneath makeup, and others we, well, don’t. To find one that’s right for the job, read on for six of our favorites.Kiehl's Ultra Facial CreamUltra Facial Cream is the lightweight moisturizer you need as the final step before SPF in your skin-care routine. It contains glacial glycoprotein, which helps your skin look healthy, glowy and hydrated and it absorbs like lightning.Lancôme Absolue Velvet Cream SPF 15This luxe moisturizer will literally make your skin feel like velvet. It contains a combination of glycolic acid, salicylic acid, hyaluronic acid and shea butter to simultaneously slough off dead skin cells and help strengthen your moisture barrier.

With continued use, it works to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and brighten the skin, plus it pairs well with any kind of makeup.Tula Face Filter Blurring & Moisturizing PrimerFor a moisturizer that also acts like a makeup primer, we recommend this Tula formula.
