as of right now, im using mineral makeup and i would like to give myself more choice in what i can use yaknow? so i would like it if someone can recommend a really great cream foundation and/or concealer. my price range is from free-about $30. i would also love if the product is non-comedogenic, doesnt make the ';matte'; appearance, adds A LITTLE shine, moisturizes, and any other benefits. if you guys recommend brushes to use along with the product, please let me know. thanks!What is a great kind of cream foundation/concealer?
Try Clinique Moisturizing Tint....it is great for sensitive skin, gives you a glowing color without making you look like your makeup is caked on. And I think it even has SPF in it, which is very important. Wear your mineral powder over the moisturizing tint or wear it alone.What is a great kind of cream foundation/concealer?
i would always say m.a.c products are really nice and last long.
they cost around $30
also if you want a cheaper brand i found that rimmel works good, but i'd still say m.a.c. is the best. and you can just apply with your fingers with give a natural look.
also m.a.c. adds sunscreen to their foundation, i think its 20 spf though, which isnt bad.
heres the link to m.a.c. make up for the face so you can have the link to concealer no problem.
Try the MAC mineralize skin finish. It has medium coverage and it looks nice and dewey.
Another choice is mac tudio fix fluid and set it with some Mineralize skin finish. The SFF will give a matte look but the MSF will give a nice glow.
Revlon colourstay liquid foundation is great. It does not dry matt, rather leaving a more natural, dewy finish. It is non-comedogenic and is around $30, maybe a little more.
i absolutley love mary-kays make up its great and doesnt clump!!
try this site marykay.com/tammy48
and you can buy the foundation brush wow does it make ulook good haha:)
its also in your price range:)

What color of foundation and concealer should i use for my skin tone?
I'm Ecuadorian and I have not so dark skin and not so light skin but every time i try to buy any coverup concealers or foundations i can't seem to find one that matches my skin tone.Is there any website you guys know where i can compare my skin tone to a graph like they have in stores or what should i do have acn marks and scars on my face that i would love to cover up.What color of foundation and concealer should i use for my skin tone?
I had trouble with picking my foundation too. i don`t know about any graphs, but i like covergirl so i tried taking this quiz that they had. you tell it your hair color, skin tone, eye color, and what colored clothes you wear on a daily basis. then, when you submit it, you can search anything on the entire site and it will gave you your best color match besed on the quiz. here is the link: http://www.covergirl.com/registration/What color of foundation and concealer should i use for my skin tone?
You should look into the Lauren Hutton Aqua Elements Loose Powder Foundation... works real well and leaves you with a very natural look.
On the Lauren Hutton site: https://www.laurenhutton.com/aqua-elemen鈥?/a> there is a section where it says something like ';determine your skin tone';... click on that link and it will bring you to another page where it explains how to choose the best color foundation for your particular skin tone.
Hope this helps you out.
I just purchased Almay Foundation it is white and you put it on and it matches your skin tone.

What is the difference between foundation and concealer?
Are both needed and how? what do you recommend or which brand is best?What is the difference between foundation and concealer?
Concealer is a thicker product.. that hides blemishs and dark circles under the eyes..
Foundation is a lighter product that goes all over your face.. or the areas needed to be cover..
You put your concealer on first so on any blemish and dark circles.. and then foundation over the top :)
To Me the best brand is Mineral power by Maybelline :)
Just a tip also..
With concealer always buy a shade lighter then your actual foundation :)
hope i helped :) xxWhat is the difference between foundation and concealer?
Concealer is used to 'conceal' and cover blemishes and spots etc, and foundation is used for complete coverage of your skin and to get an even skin tone and a more even appearance. I use a light concealer over any blemishes and then a powder all over as I find foundation too heavy :)
concealer can hide blemishes, wrinkles, dark circles under eyes, and freckles. foundation can hide wrinkles and freckles. they're not totally the same but they're really close.

concealer is more of like 'spot treatment,' like to hide eye bags and foundation is used all over the face.

What is the best kind of make up foundation and concealer?
I have tried different kinds and I don't think Im pleased yet. I need something that wont rub off and will last all day and keep my face looking soft. Something very light not heavy feeling. What is the best concealer to cover up dark circles?What is the best kind of make up foundation and concealer?
Hello kms,
How are you? My name is Cassandra Lane, I am a Certified Beauty Advisor with Avon. I recommend Avon's BEYOND COLOR Skin Smoothing Compact Foundation. Here is the description:
Instantly skin looks %26amp; feels firmer %26amp; more radiant. Smoothes on with creamy full coverage, dries to a soft powder finish. Evens out skin tone. .31 oz. net wt.
For the best concealer that covers dark circles, I recommend Avon's IDEAL SHADE Concealer Stick. Here is the description:
The perfect cover-up. Seamless, skin-true, full coverage. Visibly conceal under eye circles %26amp; blemishes. Preciselight Technology.
Eyes look tired? Gently pat concealer along under eye circles from inside out, then blend. Now you're out-the-door ready with spot-on confidence. .07 oz. net wt.
Beauty Tip by Jillian Dempsey...To cover dark under eye circles, choose a concealer shade a touch lighter than your natural skin tone. But don't go too light...or you'll spotlight the area you want to conceal and end up with raccoon eyes. There's a buy1, get1 half off sale going with this item.What is the best kind of make up foundation and concealer?
My favorite concealer is between Rimmel Hide-the-Blemish concealer, and MAC Studio Fix. Both cover under eye circles and minor imperfections amazingly well and since they have a creamy consistency, they don't budge throughout the day.
Are you looking for a liquid foundation? mineral? whipped? cream? For liquid I recommend Revlon ColorStay. It's tons cheaper than high end brands but is just as good. It's got a huge variety of shades and formulas and medium to full coverage. For whipped, I like CoverGirl Tru Blend whipped foundation. For mineral, I strongly recommend Maybelline Mineral Power.
I swear by Maybelline Liquid Minerals, it goes on really well and is kind to your skin, plus i like the fact that it's liquid rather than those annoying powdered mineral foundations. It doesn't contain talc or oil like most foundations, resulting in dry or greasy skin. Eurghhh
As for concealer, you really cannot beat Touche Eclat by YSL. It's expensive, but really worth the money. I got it on special offer so i bought two! seriously, you just whack it on under your eyes and it instantly brightens them and makes you look as if you've had 8 hours sleep even if you've been up all night.
Try looking for it on ebay, or on discount beauty sites such as www.beautyrocket.com, you might just get lucky!
Best of Luck! xx
Not really sure what I would recommend to you. There are so many products out there so what I end up doing is starting with the less expensive and trying out several products.The review site is pretty good at http://www.brandsmakeup.com visit and see what everyone recommends.
it depends on what type of skin you have and wat color it is. do u have dry skin, oily, combonation, or pimply?
i fin rimmel lasting mineral foundation the best in bot foundation and concealer.
i hope i hellped

Revlon ColorStay beats all other brands. It's good quality and inexpensive. You can also use it as a concealer.
M.A.C
bare minerals is what i use.
its mineral so wont clog your pores and you can wear a lot without getting it to look caked on

What's the correct way to apply liquid foundation and concealer?
My foundation always come out blotchy and the concealer never really covers any pimples and it creates dry patches on my face. How do I fix these things?What's the correct way to apply liquid foundation and concealer?
Use a makeup sponge to apply foundation for a clean and even coverage.
If you have some pimples try Neutrogena Skin Clearing Oil Free Makeup
Purpose: It is oil free so it won't clog pores and worsen acne. It also helps to conceal redness. I love this one especially because it is affordable and contains salicylic acid, one of the most effective pimple-fighting ingredient.
For dry skin try Almay TLC Truly Lasting Color 16 Hour Makeup Skin Nourishing Longwear SPF 15
Purpose: It comes in a cream-like texture and contains antioxidants to make up for the lost H2O in your skin. Your skin will look non-greasy and moisturized the whole day.
As for concealer...what I use is the foundation I put on. I know this sounds strange but if you take a little bit on your finger and blot it several times on you pimple it actually hides it and it blends into your face.What's the correct way to apply liquid foundation and concealer?
Shake your foundation and concealer before you squeeze it out of the tube, that way when it's out, it's uniform throughout. Squeeze it onto the back of you hand before applying onto your face, that way, it will warm up the foundation or concealer a little bit, so it's not junky and dry.
Always apply moisturizers before apply any concealer or foundation, so it sets as good base and smooth texture. For liquid foundation, I prefer using a facial sponge or sponge wedges or a foundation brush. (that goes to concealers as well). I sometimes use a plastic bottle filled with water and spray a little on my face after I applied the foundation and then smooth it out more, that way, it will be less drying and smoother.
There are also products that are great for these kind of things like the MAC fix + spray and finishing sprays for makeup.
Hope that helped!
Before putting makeup on you should always wash %26amp; moisturize it so your face is fresh and manageable
if your foundation comes out like that, maybe you should try a different brand. I use MAC Studio Fix and I love it!! but for any liquid foundation, you should shake it good. If you're using a foundation sponge to apply it, shake the foundation out onto the sponge or onto the back of your hand, then dab it onto your face in sections. If you're using a brush, put the foundation on the back of your hand or a plastic container and dab the brush into it, then dab it on your face %26amp; brush on in little circles.
Then you should always use a powder over your face when the foundation is dry, it gives you better coverage and sets the foundation to stay on all day! just use a powder brush and brush all over your face :)
Try a diff brand. Revlon is great and cheap and surprisingly good quality. Try using their foundation n powder in 1 kit. It works like heavy-coverage foundation but comes in a compact and moisturizes. For liquid foundation- dot it on ur nose, cheeks, forehead, chin...the simply connect the dots and blend. Also, u gotta find the right color- ie one that blends well w/ur skin tone.

What brand do you think is the best foundation and concealer?
Right now I use maybeline concealer and clinique foundation. What do you use that is good?What brand do you think is the best foundation and concealer?
I use YSL Touch Eclat and foundation. It may be expensive but it leaves my skin looking completely flawless. My job means it is important to look immaculate all day and this looks as good at the end of the day as it did at the beginning.
xxWhat brand do you think is the best foundation and concealer?
i would have to say either bare minerals or sheer cover :)
The best, easiest foundation is Bare Minerals. I Like Bobbi Brown concealer, but it can be pricey!
I love my bee luscious liquid minerals and concealer its the best I have ever used.
ok...physicians formula concealer if youre not worried about price...but if you have some moo-lah get Boi-ing...its by benefit.
the foundation? i use neutrogena glow sheers.
Its amazing!!!
that new color match from almay works good,
but for really great coverage and one that stays on ALL DAY, you're better off using a mac cosmetics foundations. they're expensive but i think its worth it.
