I have sensitive skin and I use adaptive by lancome. It is lovely and so much better now they have put it in a bottle with a pump dispenser, although you don't really need one full pump for the whole face. I suspect it's a trick to make you use more.
My favourite thing about this foundation is that is smells good... no painty type chemical small. I totally agree with the person who said let your moisturiser be absorbed before you apply foundation.
I'd always recommend one which has SPF too. I once heard the skin on your face has seven layers, but around your eyes only 3! That's why wrinkles appear there first. Apply using your fourth finger (usually weaker than other fingers) gently dabbing, not rubbing.

I personally like Estee Lauder. I have combinations skin and fair skin. I break out sometimes and it gives me nice cover. They have alot of choices, the ones I use from them make my makeup look so natural and it doesnt wear off. The only problem I would say I have with it is the lipstick, doesn't stay very long on me. They have newer ones but I haven't tried those yet, so I don't know about that. I really like their foundation though

I would have to say spend a little extra cash and get Bourjois brand foundation, then put on a mineral based loose powder to set it. It will last all day and it goes on so smooth! Also, it will not clog pores which is always a plus right ladies! :) Hope this helps, it's worked wonders for me! :) Good luck to you!

ok u should use a pressed or loose powder after u apply your makeup it doesnt have to be expensive and that will fix ur makeup better to your face and avoid it coming off get one in a transulent shade as this wont colour the makeup. i would use mabelline mouse or maxfactor have good foundations in warm ivory tones if u have some cash get a mac liquid foundation dare great on the skin.....

I use L'Oreal infalliable which is supposed to last 16 hours, however it does fade off but not as much as other foundation I have used. It does stay on all day and they have a good selection of shades. The one that I use is vanilla.

I use the mineral makeup from Bare Escentuals. It's WONDERFUL. I never have a problem with it melting, it gives good coverage if applied correctly, and it doesn't clog pores AT ALL. It's a bit pricey, but so worth it.

The new Revlon lightweight active foundation is incredible. It's about 10 bucks, but it's long-lasting and light-weight. It also has SPF in it. I've gone swimming with it on and it still stayed on! Check it out, it's worth the money.

hey i love the foundation called exuviance. its a skin caring foundation, so it doesnt clog your pores. it provides great coverage and stays on for 24hrs. you can get it at ulta. they can help you with any problems or questions you have about skin. also i use a powder to go over it. it settles the foundation and makes it look smoother, so it looks like you're not wearing anything.

I like shiseido tinted moist but Sisley and Armani foundation.
Also let your moisturiser sink in for 5 or 10 mins before you apply, and use a loose powder to set. Good Luck!
