    Can someone reccomend a good face wash & foundation.

    face wash & foundation??

    my skin is a very uneven tone and i would like a good facewash that will help with that & also because i break out in blemishes every now and then!!

    i need a good foundation too at the moment i am using a mineral foundation which i like but im ready for a change!
    i want something that makes my skin look *almost* perfect kwim??
    also - who uses concealer? does it really make a difference??
    any help and tips would be appreciated!!!

    I use cetahil face cleanser. It is so gentle and doesnt irritate the skin or cause blemishes.

    For foundation I actualy love Covergirl true blend whipped foundation (its in a jar). It is solight and fluffy that it doesnt looked caked on when you put it on your skin but also gives good coverage. ITs cheap too. Only $15 a jar cheaper if its on special.

    I do use a concealer. I think its a ceap BYS one ($4.95) I find it makes a difference.

    However the thign that makes the biggest difference and I find that makes my skin flawless is when after foundaion I use Physicians formula mineral powder in translucent ($30). I get it at Priceline. You cant even tell you are wearing it and it covers my skin.

    What sort of moisturiser and SPF are you using? I tend to spend less on things I wash down the drain (like cleanser and shampoo) and more on things that stay on my face (moisturiser and foundation).

    What's your budget?

    AWww thanks hun

    I wear make up everyday and it lasts me probably 2mths. You dont need much of it as its all light and fluffy and spreads really easily.

    Pure cover is a great mineral foundation! Google it! It's cheap and doesn't have nasty bismuth or talc. Looks great, lasts ages.
    For facewash I use Sukin organics because it doesn't have any nasty stuff and doesn't dry your skin out.
