Glad you found something that works well for you. I think that foundation is a challenge for a lot of us. I have often thought I loved a foundation and then get a look at myself in the rear view mirror or the bathroom lights at a restaurant (you get the idea) and can't wait to get home and wash it off. I will say that I am really liking Physicians Formula CC cream. I actually just purchased my second one which is rare for me.

I also like the FF CC cream. I think I got the organic one.

myshell, would you say the cc cream has a weightless feel on the face?

Yes it is lightweight. I only apply one layer with my fingertips. Then, I use my Real Techniques stippling brush. I only use a little concealer for under eye circles and a few brown spots and a very light dusting of powder.

May I ask what type of powder and the maker? Smiley Happy

I have been using Paula's Choice Resist Satin Finish Powder. I like it but the last couple of weeks, it keeps getting a film over it. I am kinda tired of having to keep wiping it off to use it. I just purchased Physicians Formula Translucent Pressed Mineral Powder today and will be trying it out. I do NOT recommend the CC powder from Physicians Formula. I got it in light/medium and it left me looking like a ghost.
