So I've never worn foundation because I could never find anything ever that worked for me.
It all sat really strangely on my skin. My skin has a texture to it, and large pores in places, especially on my nose. I also had the problem where I couldn't find the right color for me, it always being too pink, or too yellow.
FINALLY.
I found the foundation that was PERFECT. Key word, was.
The Benefit Stay Flawless in the lightest shade was an EXACT match, and it was so light on the skin that it didn't look like I was wearing foundation. It didn't sit in my pores and turn a weird color either. And since it was an exact match, I could use it only on the parts of my face that needed it, rather than all over.
But the last few times I've worn it, it's starting to look like what the other foundations did, not to the same extent, but it is. Like I applied it in one even coat and it all sat on the same level of skin, but it seems to crack apart (not literally crack, but separate slightly enough to notice it. Kind of like what happens when makeup sticks in dry patches)
I want something that covers well enough to hide my redness (there's a lot), but not heavy enough to sit on my skin weird. I don't want to come off as I'm wearing foundation as alot of them are very apparent. Something blendable enough to where I can only wear it where I need it rather than all over.
I have combination skin,
Any suggestions?
I like the sounds of the new Bare Minerals Bareskin foundation, but with the texture of my skin, I have found that brushes usually aren't the way to go as it roughens it up more, and sponges usually give the best finish.
