dry skin 😑

I don't put that much foundation but when i feel like putting it on it looks good from a distance but when I look closely in the mirror my skin is all dry. I put primer, moisturizer, lotion, you name it and it still looks dry and are dry patches.. is there something that can help? I'll use the Rimmel London mousse foundation, or the maybeline fit me, but the dry skin annoys me. Any advice ladies!! Thanks
