Question

What is a good brand of foundation (higher end brand)?

Answer 1

I use aularale.com/7002.  It's water based and fragrance free; matches my skin tone perfectly, doesn't come off easily from normal touching and I never feel it on my skin.

Answer 2

they have this CARGO stuff at Sephora. It lasted a really long time. In fact... I bought it in February and just ran out. It works really well. Its kinda thick though.

I love it.

Answer 3

M.A.C. Studio Tech for Dry skin $30.

M.A.C. Studio Fix powder for oily skin

Answer 4

I love Clinique Almost Makeup. It is very light weight and includes SPF. They also now have an Almost Makeup Powder version that includes SPF and is very sheer and light, it almost makes you look airbrushed..covers everything and evens out skin tone. Better yet, you can buy them next time the have their Bonus Week and get a free gift!

Answer 5

I really like Physician's Formula Mineral Foundation.  It is like a regular foundation and not a powder type and I absolutely love it.  It doesn't clog my pores (as I have sensitive skin) and it has excellent coverage.  It's about $10 per tube, but it does go a long way!

Answer 6

i use a combination of mac foundations and bare minerals.

i really like studio fix fluid from mac and on top of that i use the bare minerals medium beige as a concealer and i use the feather light mineral veil as a powder to set it all.

also, mac studio tech is a really good foundation and it's super easy to take with you on the go!

they also have this mineralize powder at mac that is really good, and i reccomend that you check that out too.

if you are thinking about getting the bare minerals i would suggest getting the starters pack since it comes with everything you would need!

:]

Answer 7

I use L'oreal true match super-blendale makeup

it is sooo good

it gets rid of all my red marks from spots amazingly and evens out my skin tone, also covers up alot of my little blemishes.

its oil free, doesnt make me break out.

and im acne prone. but my face has cleared up so much. sometimes it seems whenever i wear foundation, then take it off it clears my face up alot, probably cause when i take off my foundation it helps bring out alot of the dirt that possibly got trapped too and stuff.

but yeah :)

Answer 8

I heard that Nars foundation is good but i havent tried, although i have tried sheer cover and it is awesome. I love it !!

I got it at target for about $30 for a starter kit

Answer 9

Make-up Forever at Sephora! its a light foundation..stays true to your color..it is waterproof sweatproof..covers every blemish..and it looks amazing in pictures! it looks like im not wearing any make up! you would need to buy the Finishing Powder if you want it to look really good on your face.

Answer 10

My skin is more acne prone, so I've tried TONS of different brands.  Typically, there are three different types of foundations:

-liquid

-cream

-powder

I used to use MAC Studio Fix liquid foundation, but the girl matched the wrong color and I didn't have time to apply it like how they taught me.  So then I tried the MAC Studio Fix powder--made me break out like a mother!  

I have a few friends who have dry skin, so they really like liquid and cream foundations.  I have one friend who has a lot of acne scars too, so she uses Shu Uemura's cream foundation.  I have found that I really like their liquid foundation.  The girl told me it has 40% water base that has lots of minerals and it has 3 different kinds of algae to help hydrate your skin.  

Then there's powder foundation--which is easier to use but has a different kind of coverage that I didn't like as much as a liquid.
