I need a light foundation that doesn't clog pores (or atleast the least pore-clogging one). I don't want it to be the type that makes your skin "dull" looking and that "weighs" down your skin you know? Do you know of a good one along these lines?

I'd prefer a non-liquid one because those always look mask-like and make my skin dull. What other ones are good?

Mary Kay has good ones, don't clog pores, very light and natural looking http://www.marykay.com/s_azad/color/foundations/default.aspx

It is a liquid but I use Revlon's New Complexion makeup (its only been out a couple of months here in New Zealand). Its quite runny and light enough not to feel like a mask at all when you put it on but still gives good coverage (if you have a breakout or a squeezefest!) Says on back Light-as-air and non-pore-clogging, lets skin breathe - and I can actually back that up!

I like Neutrogena Clean Tint. Yes, it's a liquid, but it's a tinted moisturizer with salicylic acid acne medication in it. It's very easy to blend and doesn't look mask-like at all. It's what I wear in the summer since it gets REALLY hot here...it soaks into the skin better than a regular liquid foundation & doesn't melt or run.
I tried Bare Escentuals this weekend and didn't like it a bit...not good if you have large pores, it only makes them look larger!

I know you said you prefer a non-liquid, but it sounds like a tinted moisturizer would be ideal for you. The best one I've ever tried is by Laura Mercier (www.sephora.com), although I've heard good things about Neutrogena's tinted moisturizer. I also recently bought some of the Neutrogena Healthy Skin Creme Powder makeup, and I really like it - surprising, because I don't usually like cream-to-powder foundations because they usually end up feeling cakey and heavy, but this one doesn't at all.

Bella Rose ProMinerals by Serious Skin Care on HSN. Or Philosophy's Airbrush. They are both mineral foundations, they give great coverage. They also are finer milled than Bare Escentuals, they gave me more of a healthy look not a shiny look like Bare Escentuals did. Plus less steps.

If you don't want a liquid, I would recomend Mary Kay's Dual-Coverage Powder Foundation. It's very light and works well with most skin types.

you should try bare minerals or perfect pigment they both blend in with your skin tone and lets your pores breath and accually helps your acne and makes your skin look natural and not like you've just been made up so all you nee to do is put on lip gloss or your lipstick and you dont have to buy all a lot of products to get one look that still give you acne!

I use prescriptives and is very good they find the right foundation for your skin ....other foundations such as chanel &estee lauder are really good also ... just go to like belk to make up place & tell them what you need & they will prob find it..its much better than just buyin it from over the counter

Prescriptives is the best. They match your skin color exactly. Just go to their counter at any dept. store for a demo. It's very light in texture, too.
