I'm wondering what brand of minerals / powder foundation you use?
I've been using a Revlon liquid foundation for years and have noticed that the bottle I'm using at the moment seems to be wearing off my face by mid morning. I have to wear it everyday for work, and I normally end up wearing it on weekends as well, because my skin is prone to pimples and gets quite red around the cheeks, which I hate.
Any recommendations would be appreciated!!
TIA
At the moment Clinique super balanced make up. I really like it as it's light to wear. I went to the Clinique counter and got color matched.
In the past I have used the Body Shop moisture face ones...really like those too.
I have a Mac Tinted Moistouriser I use on days I don't want to wear foundation..it actually looks like really good, even if I do say so myself :lol:
I currently use Issada Mineral Liquid foundation, it is the best I've ever used after searching for a very long time. I do not have the greatest skin & have been trying to find something for years that works well, I hate the foundations that make your face look oily, or come off onto you sunnies etc....that's yuck. This is a liquid foundation, that drys like a powder when you apply it....I got it at my hairdresser & I love it. I've also had many people ask me what make up I use as it does do a good job.
That's the one I have, and I love it.:
Thanks girls...
How much is the Clinique Super Balanced?
Do to the fact that I wear it almost everyday, I don't want to spend an absolute fortune on it...
I'm using Nude By Nature right now and love it so much. The only disadvantage to it is it only comes in 3 shades - light, medium & dark. I was just lucky that the light is perfect for my skin tone.
I use the Avon Mineral powder makeup range which includes the foundation, blush and eyeshadow. I think the foundation costs about $20 and you usually get a free kabuki brush with it. I used to use Clinique Super Balance too, not sure whether that is mineral or not though?? I was skeptical of mineral powder at first, but I havent used liquid for ages!
I buy all my make up from Avon :lol:
It was $49. You don't have to use much so it goes a long way.:
I use the maybelline mineral foundation and i love it!!
Ooh I never wear foundation but I kind of want to start this thread is good!
About $50 from memory. It does lasts a long time. Another good one is Mary Kay, I've used that in the past.
Jodi, because you live in high temp/humidity does it rub off?
Nope, not at all.
It is currently $29 AUD on Strawberrynet. This is with free postage. Best to get colour matched at the counter of your dept store/pharmacy and then log in and buy! I have ordered many times from them and always been pleased.:
Due to the strong AUD at the moment, there are some good bargains to be had. Some of the Clinique mascaras are only $17 so same price you pay for Maybelline etc
Hope this helps :D
the one I mentioned is about $70, but I've just had to buy a new one this week. It lasted me 6months or more & that's wearing it everyday. I live where it's very hot & humid all of the time & it never runs as it goes like a powder & means you don't need a powder also saving you $$$$ also.
Thanks for giving me your recommendations girls! Very much appreciated.
Taurean78, I just might have to check that website out!! :think: Very interesting.
Otherwise I might go Avon, I didn't think of them. I've never bought from Avon before, can I just buy it off their website??
I dont think so Nic, i have a catelogue & can order & post for you if you need me to x
