 I use the lancome over estee lauder double wear liquid foundation, I also use estee lauder pressed powder.  I will have to give the MAC a try.

I just received Tarte amazonian tinted serum for days I stay home, I am retired so usually only do a full face once or twice a week but it would be nice to have a little coverage when I am at home.

@spumoni99   please let me know how it turned out for you when you get it down the road.

@Pink123 I tried it for the first time today, it has pretty good coverage for a tinted serum.  I still put my powder over it just because it seems a bit wet without powder.  Its nice to have coverage without heavy makeup on for casual days.

I've been using powder only since I grew up.  I just never got used to liquid and didn't like the feel on my face.  I'm from Southn Florida and it's just so hot and does not feel good on the skin.

I used Lancome Powder foundation for over 30 years now but when I was in Madrid last year a salesman at the store showed me MAC plus powder foundation.  I said ok and gave it a try.

I ended up loving it and so does my skin.  I even think it glides on better for some reason than the Lancome.  It looks drier at first but doesn't stay that way once on.

If you wear either one which do you prefer?  I'm a convert and just ordered my second MAC one.  My shade is NW20.  A pale beige.  I never thought I would leave Lancome.

I brush it on around my face with one of those short fat brushes you hold in your hand.  I'ts from MAC too. Around $50.00 I think.  I like that one too.

On your recommendation @Pink123 @I ordered this in NW18. It is amazing! Just wanted to thank you. Best foundation I have tried in years!

OMG @Trinity11  I'm so happy you like it as much as I do.  I just reordered and I think this is my new powder forever.  Yay!

We are close.  I'm NW20, you could be lighter than I?  I'm the type that can blush easily, etc.  It must be close..

I might try yours but I think I'm ok.  

PS.  as a matter of fact just thinking we are so close maybe I could use NW18 too?  I'm going to website.

OK @Trinity11  I just checked.  MAC NW18 is a "light beige neutral" and NW20 which is me "a rosy light beige neutral".

I think it's the pink in my skin and very little difference.

IIt's too funny, I bought this in Madrid last year when my handbag got stolen.  the sales guy suggested it and here we are.

Like yourself I used Lancôme @Pink123 . It was more powdery and somehow the coverage sometimes brought out dryness especially in the winter months. 

Thanks for posting because I haven't been able to find anything even close for many years since another brand discontinued a similar product.🥰💐

@Trinity11  here is the brush that the salesman in Madrid sold me.

I love it.  I just purchased a new one.  I't s so soft and wonderful on the skin.  I just roll it around with the powder.  It does not take much for coverage.

@Pink123 MAC calls it a buffer brush.

I've been using Bare Minerals Powder Foundation since one year after it was introduced on QVC.  Slow learner, I guess.  I haven't ever been tempted to go to another.
