I use bare minerals. It has always been good to me, I haven't been able to wear any other foundation or powder without breaking out in cystic acne. I think it looks very natural and have both my mom and her friend wearing it now. You can make it as natural as you want, unlike with other foundations. With bare minerals you can either do a 1 step process of just putting it on, or you can do a more complex one where you first apply it with the concealer brush, then brush it all over, put some warmth or other bronzer on your face and then use mineral veil, the finishing powder. I sleep in it all the time (I know I'm not supposed to) and have never had any problems with it rubbing off or looking all cakey. If you have oily skin, all you have to do is use oil absorbing sheets when your face gets oily and the makeup isn't effected at all, it looks like you just touched it up only you didn't. If you have dry skin, simply use a rich moisturizer before applying it. It's the most versatile and natural looking foundation I've ever found, plus it gives me better coverage than even liquid did. One bonus too is that you get like $100 worth of brushes if you get a starter pack that's $60, it comes with the brushes, 2 colors of foundation, warmth (bronzer/blush), mineral veil (finishing powder) and usually a travel bag. So even if you didn't like the powder you'd still have ALL of that really nice stuff that you can keep using for a fraction of the price!

I've lately been going on http://www.eyeslipsface.com/. They have an "all over face stick" and I swear by it. It makes you look like you have nothing on, completely natural - but it covers up all of the blemishes. The best part is - they only cost $1. It works like magic.

um bear minerals all the way!!!

Answer 9

Bare Minerals is a great mineral foundation. Unfortunately it is also expensive. There are a couple others that you can try that work great.

Physicians Formula Mineral Wear is a great one. It is designed for sensitive skin, but is still a little on the pricey side. So if still more than you like to pay try Loreal Bare Naturale.

I use Revlon colorStay liquid foundation. And Revlon Nucomplexion duo compact powder. Choose the same color of both. Apply a thin layer of liq found, and pad with compact powder. Ask the cosmetologist to choose the most natural color for u.
