Complexion Perfection!

[Shelley Minson]

Hi dolls

I was just wondering what foundation all you lovely ladies would recommend? I am always on the look out for the perfect base product and with my skin being so pale it can be hard to find. I have kept coming back to Lancome Teint Idole foundation for the last nearly 10 years but I would love to update to something even better!

Thank you in advance!

MAC studio fix fluid. AMAZING. It is a water based semi matte finish foundation. It gives a medium to full coverage. This foundation photographs beautifully and wears really well!!!

Thank you very much Roxy and Sarah! I found the links very helpful and I have got a list going of foundations to try out! : )

Not sure what type of coverage you are looking for, but when I need medium to heavy coverage, I always reach for Cinema Secrets cream foundation. It covers EVERYTHING, while still feeling light on your skin. I always have a problem with drugstore foundations never having a shade light enough, or always looking orange on my porcelain skin. If you're interested you can probably find it at any local theatrical shop, or purchase online. I buy mine ar:

FYI, my shade is 501
Let me know if you have any questions!

I started using a new foundation a few months ago, and I swear it is the most perfect one I have ever used. It would take something truly magic to get me to switch. It's DiorSkin Airflash. It's a bit pricey, $60 a pop, but worth every penny for how good it looks, how well it sits and how well it stays. If you ladies get the chance, go into Nordstrom and have them put it on you. Wear it all day and you'll see how amazing it is. So far it has lasted through Viva, Disneyland, Ink n Iron and numerous days and nights.

I had your same problem finding foundation for fair skin. I swear by the MAC Studio Fix. I've been using it for over a year now and love it! It feels really lightweight and doesn't make my skin break out like many of the foundations I've used in the past tend to do. 

Good luck on your search :-)
