What she thought: Cheap this is not, but it is amazing. It goes on sheer, but let's you build coverage as needed and it seriously makes pores and fine lines disappear. And while it does help your skin stay matte, it's less of a chalky, I-used-too-much-powder matte, and more of a softer, naturally grease-free kind of finish. Add in the relatively high SPF (for a foundation) and the fact that it's never made me break out and I think I've found "the one."
I only need about a pea-sized amount to cover my whole face. If I really want it to last I'll mix it with a drop of Napoleon Perdis Auto Pilot Pre-Foundation Primer before I apply, but even on its own it'll last through a day at the office.

Good variety of lines and price levels. I want to try the Laura Geller now. The review for the Lancôme was so good, I'm tempted to try it too. Well done!

So I have to try the "Laura Geller Real Deal Foundation Stick," it looked so interesting! I had to look at this article and the worst foundations article just to see if what I use was on either list (it wasn't).

I love the revlon foundation powder because when applied ISPs cooling the only problem is u have to get another brush to use. I also love loreal lift foundation it goes on like a Serum.

I like that you consistently give a range of products with prices everyone can afford. I didn't see my favorite foundation, however--Lancome's "Dual Finish Versatile Powder Foundation." It is never, ever cakey but just leaves me looking like my skin is flawless. It blends seamlessly. And coverage is buildable. I can't go without it.

Cool article. I would add to the list Maybelline Airbrush foundation. Use it with a stippling brush and your foundation will look - flawless-dewy but flawless. Milani mineral foundation was a surprise to me.-interesting.
