Kat Von D recently sold all interest in her cosmetics company, so don't be surprised if formula changes occur.

Kat Von D is officially stepping away from her longtime makeup brand, Kat Von D Beauty. The company, which was founded by Von D 12 years ago, has been completely acquired by Kendo and is, effective immediately, rebranded and renamed as KVD Vegan Beauty

@Nana4x The best full coverage foundation is supposed to be Estée Lauder Double Wear. High praises from beauty guru Wayne Goss and others. I agree, it is the best on the market. Also, try looking at Catrice foundations, No. 7, and NYX "Can't Stop Won't Stop." I also have one by Makeup Forever that is fantastic. HTH

@Nana4x - I'm currently using IT Cosmetics Full Coverage CC Cream w/spf 50 that I purchased here at the Q. I use a damp sponge (Real Techniques) for application so I can get a not-so-full-coverage look. The damp sponge also gives me an air brushed look that really like.

I have combo/oily skin & everything breaks me out.

I use Becca Ever Matte Shine Proof Foundation when I need full coverage. It is the most matte foundation that I have ever used, so if you are not oily I wouldn't use it.

@Nana4x Oily or dry skin? Like a dewy or matte finish? High end or drugstore pricing?

@Mimi 1883 Wayne Goss is correct. Double Wear suits most women and has many shades. I try to talk women out of full coverage foundation in exchange for light to medium and use a concealer in same shade for touching up. Very few women actually need full coverage all over the face. Ears, neck, etc. usually have to match chest, hands or the entire picture looks false. Heavy coverage can be overkill.

I've been experimenting with the new IT foundation, both in the regular and oil free versions, and a few others. For more coverage, these days I like the Kim Gravel, Belle Beauty, Hover Cover.

I like L'Oreal Infallible Fresh Wear 24 hour. I have dry, sensitive skin. It's not perfect but I get a perfect color match, and I'm exhausted trying to find a foundation I like. Some are so tacky and never set (no CC creams for me!). I recently tried Hourglass and I had to put so much powder on top it was crazy. Same with Lancome, MAC and Clinique.

@Shanus So true to everything you said. Right now, my go to foundations are the Dior Airflash, Catrice, and Makeup Forever. Since purchasing, I've changed to "cruelty free" products, so I won't be repurchasing the items that are not. I like the Hourglass products I have, but haven't tried their foundations yet.

ITA - Estee Lauder Double Wear is by far the best full coverage foundation. Started wearing it in the '80s and haven't looked back. Lisa Eldridge mentioned in one of her videos that this is her #1. That's saying a lot coming from her.

@pommom Many times, she and other artists cut it 2/3 foundation to 1/3 moisturizer for a more natural look unless it's a special occasion. You'll begin to see less full coverage foundations in the market as skincare becomes the focus.

I have been using EL Double Wear for about three years now and it is my favorite. I rotate between other foundations but DW is the one I use most and always for special occasions. I am 63 and use it just where I need it which is mostly the center of my face. I do not apply any around my mouth or the sides of my face. My t zone is oily and the DW holds up throughout the day. I apply it sparingly and it does not look heavy or cakey.

Kevyn Aucoin balm foundation is the best for my complexion.Another good one with full coverage is Dermablend in the round jar.

Katcat1 — Mon, 16 Mar 2020 07:00:53 GMT

That's a loaded question. There are so many. Bobbi Brown offers several, Estee Lauder, Charlotte Tilbury, Chanel, Dior. Take your pick or better yet go to your local Sephora and try out several different brands. Some offer better choices in shades and undertones and also finishes.

@pommom I've never watched Lisa Eldridge, but will take a look. I do subscribe to Mel Thompson (amazing) and Mrs Melissa M (a really sweet lady.) I truly love the Makeup Forever Blurring Powder Foundation.
