Powder foundation recommendations

chiclet · ‎03-19-2010

I am so sick of trying to find a foundation that matches my skin, works with my sunscreen, does not emphasize my lines and wrinkles, and works with my combination skin with pores. Since I have to use powder I might as well find a powder foundation and save a step. I have tried Bareminerals and it does not work for me so no use mentioning that one. Would appreciate any suggestions that would work with my skin type.

I use this on occasion and am satisfied. Please note that the reviews are mixed on this product.

@chiclet I love Laura Geller Balance and Brighten because it gives the skin a subtle glow and doesn't emphasize pores or texture, the way some liquids do. It also doesn't look like powder on the skin. It just looks like healthy, more perfected skin! Shade matches are also easier with the B&B because each pan is a swirl of colors that blend out on your skin, rather than one flat shade. I wouldn't wear foundation for the longest time because liquids showed my texture and pores, while other powder foundations looked chalky and dry. This one was a winner for me.

I like PUR 4-in-1 pressed powder foundation. Hsn carries it. It doesn't have any drying talc and it contains some active skin care ingredients plus shea and vitamin E. Many shades to choose from. There is a shade finder on the PURCosmetics dot com website on the banner at the top of the homepage under DISCOVER.

Pur 4-in-1 Pressed Minerals is great.

I also like the Pur 4 in 1.

I also like and have the Pur one but I find it just doesn't give the same "life" to my face as the B&B does.

Lancôme Dual Finish is what I consistently buy again and again and again. It's the best.

I have used several powder foundations, but the one I have been most loyal to is Pur 4-in-1. I find this foundation does for me all of the things @chiclet wants a powder foundation to do.
