Foundation Help!

[dani302011]

Hi Ladies-

I need advise on a good drugstore foundation for this summer. I am looking for something light but with good coverage, as I tend to have dark under eyes and redness in the nose/check area.

I have been using Maybelline Fit, which I like well enough, but it is heavier for summer and I feel like it just sits on my skin and melts off by noon. I do use a translucent powder over it (Elf perfect finishing HD powder.)

Any recommendations? I guess in theory if I can order it online it doesn't have to be drug store but I would like to stay under $15.

thanks!

I really like Missha BB cream. I order it from Amazon. I would say it has light-medium coverage, but it's buildable. It covers my redness well, but doesn't cover blemishes or dark circles completely. I like that it feels really lightweight.

I always see great reviews for the Covergirl BB. Even though it's a BB it is higher coverage like a foundation and it's for oily skin.

I like the Maybelline Dream Fresh BB cream.

Maybelline Dream Matte mousse is my favorite drugstore one

I don't personally like finishing powder as a setting powder. I don't think it sets makeup, IMO. For a drugstore loose powder, I like NYC translucent powder. My favorite is RCMA but it isn't sold at drugstores. If you live in a really big city, it may be at a specialty store. It is inexpensive considering the amount you get!

For foundation, revlon colorstay has lasting power, but I don't personally like it. Maybelline matte and poreless and L'Oréal pro-matte are my two favorite inexpensive foundations. I also want to try the Milani foundation, but don't think it goes pale enough for me.
