foundation

[annette_tr9]

right, i need a new foundation......i don't mind paying a bit for it, maybe up to £15......

can anyone suggest a good one?? i usually just buy what's on offer but should really find one i like and stick to it.

i need to have quite a light colour and want a matt finish, i would put powder over it anyway...........

i probably should go out shopping more and not rely on the internet but then i would spend more money!!!

I have you tried the mineral foundations at all????

They are great and are actually good for your skin...they give a natural, matt, flawless look too. They are starting to become big over here now...couple of the main make up brands have started selling them - have a look in Boots next time you are in.

I use Bare Escentuals mineral make up, but its quite pricey. Avon, I hear sell, have started selling pots of mineral foundation for approx £7.

How come they are good for your skin then?

Because it contains nothing but pure minerals...none of the rubbish (chemicals, dyes or fillers) that make up normally contains.

Sounds very good, I dont reall wear foundation, but want to start wearing something cos I look so pale sometimes

I've just started wearing foundation
I wear Boots No.7 Intelligent Colour Foundation
It's really good because it adjusts to your skin tone.

I have light skin so need the lightest foundation anyways
So I have "Light" lol

Its around £13.something
But I think it's worth every penny

Hope that was a little bit of help.

I have MaXfactor lasting perfomance which is good because I don't have to reapply every 5 minutes I have 102 pastelle. I also use paler powder on top, removes any shineyness and evens out the tone on the face I can't remember how much it cost..can't have been that much because that day I got the powder, foundation and an eye pencil for £19..

thanks for all the suggestions, i shall have a look around the internet for them today. the colour change one sounds good, i am going on holiday in a few weeks so if i take that one with me it should change colour if i get a bit of a tan.....

I use L'oreal true match minerals cause it doesn't dry out my skin and you don't need to reapply so many time.. it is really good, worth trying

I LOVE Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse. I have 020 Cameo. It's not particularly light, but not overly dark, either. Every other foundation I've tried doesn't seem to agree with my skin; so maybe you could try that range if you've had any problems with some foundations.
