My favorite foundation suddenly looks so dry and patchy. How did you change your makeup when your skin got dry?

I recently turned 42 and my skin has completely changed. I used to have a great routine, but lately my face is so dry and patchy, especially when I try to put on makeup. Every time I apply my usual foundation to go out, it just clings to all these dry spots I never used to have.

Did you have to completely throw out your favorite makeup brands when your skin started aging? Or is there a trick to prepping your skin beforehand so things actually stay smooth?

I love looking put together, but right now my makeup is just making my skin look worse. I would love some simple, easy recommendations for hydrating skin tints or primers that actually work for textured skin.
