Makeup help?!!?

Hi, I need help finding a good concealer/cover up or foundation for my face. I'm particularly interested in Almay or Neutrougena because i've heard so many good things about them. I have tried Bare Es. and I loved it, but I would like to know if there is any concealer or foundation out there (a bit less expensive) that can stay on my face as if natural (not fake looking) and I don't have to worry about it melting (clumping) off my face!





Please help!





thank you : )Makeup help?!!?
Yeah I use Neutrogena, the one that HELPS my acne. It's great, by the end of the day I don't have any acne.Makeup help?!!?
If you exfoliate and put on moisturizer, like Oil of Olay, THEN use a concealer it should not clump or flake off. Sometimes it's more about prep work so that the application works at max potential.
I like to use American Beauty from Kohl's. It has a little more coverage than Bare Es., but if you use the Bare Es. Brush, its goes on not as heavy. I really like it.
I think MAC is definitely a good choice, its what i use. you may even be able to get a free sample of concealer if you just o to this site: http://shrunk.us/19 . just put in your zip code to see if the samples are available in your area.
Chanel foundation is great, it is light weight and natural looking (as long as you get color matched). Although it maybe the same or a bit more in cost than the Bare E.

I use Revlon Colorstay Active (Lite) and concealer everyday. and I set it by dusting colorstay powder. I have combination skin which is very sensitive and which clogs easily with anything. This foundation has been very very nice to my skin. No adverse effects at all. It gives you light to medium coverage. Looks and feels like you have no makeup on. I have not tried the other colorstay versions so I don't know about those. But this one is worth trying. Be sure to MOISTURIZE your face atleast 10-15 min. before you apply it. It makes a lot of difference. Otherwise it is a little tricky to blend. Apply it on one area at a time so it will be easier to blend. If you get the technique, it is wonderful. It stays put in humidity, hot weather. Read the reviwes on www.makeupalley.com
If there is a Sephora near you, I would say go there. The aesthetics specialists there can show you exactly what will work for you and narrow it down to things in your price range. They will show you how to apply everything and show you what you will look like under different lighting.
Hey! I really like Cover Girl concealer...it's cheap and it and effective. For foundation, I recommend Cover Girl True Blend...it looks natural since it really blends in well. It wont look fake and if you want it not to melt, just finish it all up with translucent loose powder (Cover Girl Professional powder is really good). Good luck with it all!


Oh and since we're on the makeup topic, if you want awesome lashes, Panoramic Curl by L'or茅al is AMAZING.


Hope I helped :D
