Answer 3

Bobbi Brown is awesome for Olive colored skins. It's pricey if you are willing to spend for good quality.

Answer 4

if you want to save money CG

but since you say your a olive tan color i suggest you go to MAC and ask them to mix a foundation for you so it matches your skin tone more evenly

hope i helped

Answer 5

try prescriptives, or physicians formula, or something organic,from Whole Foods- (they sell great organic makeups/shampoos/condition) to cover your face. alot of those minerals whatever in makeup actually cause more damage than they cover.

Mac makeup is great for colors-eye/lips/cheeks, nail polishes,etc, but I would not recommend their foundation

Answer 6

mac is wonderful but it is very expensive

cover girl isn't good

I recommend u chanel it is great and cheaper than mac

Answer 7

MAC is so over rated and hyped it isn't even funny.

CoverGirl isn't any good either...it is thin and runny and turns orange.

Mineral is not the answer either.  That is just as over hyped as MAC.

Check out Revlon Colorstay.  They have a good color selection.  I have also heard good things about the Maybelline mineral foundations, both the liquid and the powder.

Answer 8

GIRL YOU SHOULD GET WITH WHAT IS IN, MINERALS. I PURCHASE MINE WITH RAW NATURAL BEAUTY. ARE U AWARE THE COVERGIRL CONTAINS PARABENS AND PETROCHEMICALS. THAT DOES SO MUCH HARM TO YOUR SKIN.

Answer 9

Mac broke me out. Revlon Colorstay is great for a long lasting finish, but it breaks some people out and can look masklike because it is full coverage. I like the CG whipped foundation because it is very light. If you want minerals, go with Everyday Minerals because you can get free samples from them and try it out before commiting.

Think about the coverage and finish you want and check out makeupalley.com for reviews.
