bare escensuals i.d powder.  you can make coverage as light or full as you want - its a mineral powder and doesnt clog pores and is so light you dont even notice it on your skin.  you can also use powder as a concearler with a smaller brush.  

you can also use ontop of that mineral veil - its like a top coat and keeps shine at bay and really does even out skintone - i often wear that alone!

most QVC channels stock it and it has its own website also.

I swear by it.

i personally like Laura Mercier, their foundations are amazing!!

here's the website, http://www.lauramercier.com/products/fla...

there are also other great powder foundations you could check out on the website as well.

i think it should be sold in Australia, or you could get it online...

good luck searching!!

Gawd ppl those arent drugstore brand names. Neways try neutorgena, it's much more healthier on your skin, however i am currently using Revlon Custom Dial. Its a foundation but when it goes on your skin it feels smooth, kind of like a powder. My complexions not bad but i do have slight redness to cover up and this does a great job. I like it alot and i recommend it.

Answer 5

Urban Decay makes a lovely powder foundation that fits your description. You can order it online.

It's called Surreal Skin Mineral Makeup and runs about 29 US dollars. Lats a long time though! Oil free, fragrance free, and great coverage... it covers up my acne scars.

MAC's Mineralize loose powder foundation is great, so is their Studio Fix powder. The studio fix can look a little cakey sometimes but it depends on the kind of brush you apply it with. I've had the best luck with a "kabuki" brush like MAC's 182 buffer brush. You can also prevent the cakey look with most powder foundations by setting it with something like MAC's Fix+ spray. You can spray it on the brush with the foundation on it to make it go on more smoothly. You can also spray it on a brush, dabbing it onto your face, or even directly on your face after you've put the powder foundation on to set it and give your face a more natural finish.

I've also heard great things about Make Up For Ever's Duo Mat powder foundation, although I've never tried it myself. It's also a bit more expensive than the MAC stuff, but overall it's an excellent brand too.
