Does anyone have a DRUGSTORE loose powder foundation that they can recommend? I've searched the forum and can't find any current threads that address LOOSE powder foundation. I am 55 with combo skin.

I know Coty makes one. I have never used it but I hear good things about it. Good luck.

I was going to say the same about Coty. It must be good: it has been around for decades!
Coty Airspun. I even like the n ame.

We owned little drug store and we sold Coty. It was the high end stuff at the time. Good memories. That was the early 60’s. Yes it has been around a long time. I know it’s fairly inexpensive too. Don’t remember what it cost then. I do remember our nickel cokes however!

That Coty airspun has been around a loong time. My mother used it,it looked nice on her. I've never worn powder,powder is not my friend.

Thanks, everyone! I found the Coty on Wal-Mart's website and three of the colors that might work are available at my local store. Inexpensive, and I can take it back if I don't like it. I absolutely love Lauren Hutton's aqua elements loose foundation, but it hasn't been made in years, and I am about to the end of my stash. I've tried liquid foundations with primers as well as pressed mineral foundation, but they always end up settling in my lines and wrinkles.

@Ainhisg I would also look at Loreal and Neutrogena. You can always return any product you are not pleased with.

I have one from Cover Girl that is nice. Also, I know Almay has one, but I haven't tried it, although I do like just about every Almay product I've tried.

Hi @Ainhisg,
I know you said loose powder, but this one is a pressed mineral powder and it's all I use for a foundation. The coverage is light to medium, not full, and is buildable. There's no drying talc and the powder is very finely milled so it goes on like silk. It gives a semi-matte finish that doesn't turn shiny by the end of the day. I buy mine in a 3-pack from Amazon for less than $20. I had to buy a couple of different shades before I found the right one but the cost was so reasonable it was worth the few failed tries. Comes in a bunch of shades, more than I've shown here:
L.A. Colors Pressed Mineral Powder

Before I used Clinique loose, I always used Revlon Colorstay (pressed) or Loreal loose.
