I'm on the search for a good foundation. I have oily skin that is very sensitive. I want something thats not too heavy because I don't really care for the "made up" look. I want something thats gives me glowy natural flawless looking skin. I was breaking out really bad so I stopped wearing anything other than sunscreen for months, but I think I'm ready again.

Any suggestions?

Best foundation for oily skin

Oily skinned girls?

Chantecaille Future Skin

Maybe you should go with a tinted moisturiser. Try Laura Mercier, Bobbi Brown or Prescriptives Traceles..

I would recommend either a tinted moisturizer that is oil free, Bare Minerals/mineral foundation, or maybe MAC's Studio Tech foundation or Studio Fix...

I was gonna recommend Estee Lauder Double Wear but i see that you want light coverage so forget about that one! A few of the girls on here love Chantecaille Future Skin but its pricey so i'm not sure if you'd be willing to spend that kind of money. If you could try a sample first it would be cool!

Does diluting the DoubleWear with a moisturizer/highlighter make it go oily after a couple hours? I am so interested in this foundation thanks to you!
My mom has always used EL foundation since I can remember, she uses Double Matte, tho.

Have you tried Clinique or Aloette? I too have oily skin and am acne prone and very sensitive. The Aloette products are aloe based. Just a suggestion.

Is BE the same as bare minerals? I tried bare minerals and thought it was too powdery looking for me. It looks really nice from afar but i don't like how i look close up with it.

Ok guys. I am desperate for help, he he. I am 2 hours away (with a 3 year old daughter at home with me) from a store that sells prescriptives. Therefore unable to get a match for a foundation. I need your help in picking a color for the Flawless line.

In Clinique I wear: 05 Nuetral Superfit Foundation, or 08 Stay Nuetral Stay True Matte Foundation

In Lancome I wear: Bisque 0 Tiente Idole Foundation

I guess I'm light/medium skin tone.

Anyone????

department stores usually cost more than drugstores because they actually have people sitting out there testing out the colors for you to try to make it perfect. i think if you willing to fork out the money, you should go get your money's worth by letting them find the perfect match.

btw, for prescriptive, they give you a week worth of free sample for the foundation if you ask for it. sometimes you try something at the store and you go home and it looks completely different. i'd ask for the sample and give it a try for a week to make sure.

ure so lucky you get samples in the US. i asked for a sample when i got my px foundation and they said they dont have any. i have a hard time believeing that though.. they are really stingy with samples here

I really like my Prescriptives Custom Blend. They custom make it for you and you can even choose what type of coverage you want.
