    Netix if you love the Revlon keep using it but buy a mattifying primer. Loreal Studio Secrets primer in the little pink jar is marketed at dry skin but I've found it one of the best mattifying primers I've tried (I've got oily combination skin). They do a primer aimed at oily skin too but the pink one in the pot is heaps better in my opinion.

    Or if you want something more luxe the BECCA resurfacing primer is also excellent.

    I'm also on the look out for a new foundation even though I'm now a play at home mummy I hardly ever wear it! I've liked Innoxa (sp) in the past and was going to get that again. I currently have one of those powder brush on mineral makeup things but I dont' think that it really covers that well and I like the look of a liquid foundation that gives that dewy look rather than the matt look of a powder mineral make up.

    buffy, does the MAC give a dewy natural look or is it matt?

    Hi cherished - hmmmmm, I'd describe it as a satin finish, so it's a 'natural matte'. Not completely flat like a matte foundation though, if you get what I mean?

    For something with decent coverage but more on the dewy side, you could try the Revlon Colourstay version for dry skin or:

    Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation - this is one of my new favourites, good staying power but still looks like skin
    Jemma Kidd Light As Air Liquid Foundation (available at Kit Cosmetics, in Myer, DJs and online)
    M.A.C Select SPF Liquid Foundation

    I don't work for M.A.C, I promise - I've just tried most of their products and use a lot of it in my kit
