As the new year is approaching here is a list of my favorite foundations I have purchased for 2011 and so far my list hasn't changed. I love these foundations because they work for me, since I have dry sensitive skin I tend to go for foundations that are more dewy instead of matte but if I do buy a matte foundation just out of not knowing it was a matte texture. I would use my Hard Candy Sheer Envy Skin Perfecting Primer and the foundation goes on a lot smoother and doesn't feel drying. Please keep mind not all foundations work the same for everyone.
1.I really love this foundation for its not there feeling. It feels like I am not wearing foundation at all. This is a light and can build to medium coverage but I like it for those days I don't feel like wearing foundation but have to. This foundation has a scent of cucumber, if you don't like cucumber scent your not gonna like this one.
2.Almay Line Smoothing Makeup SPF 15 # 220 Neutral
I don't have a pic but this is my favorite foundation its similar to the CoverGirl natureluxe it feels natural and both foundations have cucumber ingredient to make the skin feel refreshed. Everytime I put on this foundation I feel cool and refreshed and I like how its dewy and its medium to full coverage it can build to full coverage.
3.This foundation is intended for people with dry skin, I really like this foundation it leaves my skin looking nice and I like the coverage on this foundation it doesn't feel drying on my face. It blends easily and using a flat top kabuki brush it looks even better.
4.This foundation is becoming a favorite of mine. This foundation is a creme foundation it blends nicely and creme foundations tend to look better when taking photos which it really does. Its a dewy foundation
its anti aging which is great for women who are 25 and older. I really like my foundations to have SPF to help protect against sun damage. This foundation is light to medium coverage.
5. I really like this foundation it blends nicely and its also an anti aging foundation. I wouldn't say it gives great coverage but it gives you more of a concentrated coverage. If your looking for a full coverage foundation this isn't the one but it goes great on my skin it gives me a healthy looking appearance. Plus I like the ingredients in this foundation.
6.Maybelline New York Fit Me foundation SPF 18 #225 Medium Buff
This foundation was everywhere on T.v commercials on every woman's magazine this foundation was all the hype when it first came out. Tempted to buy this foundation its pitch was a natural looking coverage with gel and pigments not weighing your skin down but making it feel light with the sense of feeling like your not wearing foundation. This is light to medium coverage this isn't full coverage. Its dewy which is for people with dry skin.
7.Now this foundation I bought on a whim I didn't know it was more of a matte texture until I saw reviews on YouTube that this foundation is for women that have oily skin. Its a pretty expensive foundation for drugstore. I use this with a face primer and I pretty much love the texture, it blends effortlessly. For women with oily skin its great, for women with dry skin please use a face primer because it can be drying.
8.This foundation is a liquid mousse texture giving you an airbrushed finish. Now this foundation will not give you the illusion of an airbrushed look but it will leave you with an even coverage, its a light to medium coverage. I really like this foundation it leaves my skin looking nice. It blends evenly!!
9.This foundation is said to be one of CoverGirl #1 selling foundations. I tried it without a face primer well it covers really well even covers my imperfections but it started drying me up in my nose area. Then I figured it does have a matte texture. This foundation will not settle into fine lines and wrinkles which can be the reason it feels matte. This foundation does not give a dewy feel which is great for women with oily skin, women with dry skin it will be drying, wear a face primer, makeup will go on smoothly and it won't be as drying. It is an anti aging foundation with a moisturizer. Coverage is medium to full.
10.This foundation is supposed to be an exact match of your skin tone. Which eliminates the process of trying to find a foundation that is an exact match of your skin tone and being disappointed that the foundation ended up too light or too dark. It makes the process quick and easy. I choose medium it isn't the best drugstore foundation out there. Its nice it doesn't feel cakey. It comes out white and turns to a medium shade. It has a cool concept, if your a beginner in makeup and want to try something not so intimidating this is good for that. Comes in shades light & medium from what I have seen in stores.
