The best foundation is the Temptu Airbrush System. It does not penetrate pores, and imparts a beautiful luminous finish.

I love Revlon Colorstay. I just don't like that I have to mix two different shades to match my skin.

My first ever foundation was by Prescriptives. I'm not sure why I ever stopped purchasing it.

I really enjoy the articles like these because when I run out of foundation and start looking for a new one, I can look for some here!
