Try Bare Minerals. My niece uses it and her skin looks beautiful. No liquid foundation with that all powder.

No, it isn't true that all liquid foundation is unhealthy for your skin, or that it will cause wrinkles or make you look old. What WILL make you look old is sun damage (estimated to cause 90% of premature aging/wrinkles) and there are many foundations out there with a good sunscreen in them that will help to protect your skin from aging. There are also some crappy ones with pore-clogging ingredients and ingredients that will irritate your skin, so you do need to shop carefully.
A good one to try is Neutrogena Healthy Skin Enhancer, it has UVA/UVB blocking sunscreen, antioxidants and a sheer color. If you're looking for a little more coverage, L'Oreal True Match is good also.
I have noticed on here that there are lots of people who love BareMinerals products and who picked up on their advertising and think nothing else is good for your skin, however, that's not true. BareMinerals is not bad for your skin, it's just full of sparkle which means it doesn't look bare at all, and should be washed off every night like any other makeup. L'Oreal's Bare Naturale is fine if you decide to try a powder foundation.

There are a lot of different kinds of liquid foundation. The heavier kind, that cover up everything, can clog pores unless labled that they won't. The sheer kind work well, for evening out skin-tone, and they are much better for the skin. Just make sure you apply foundation to a clean face and wash your face at night, every night! A good option is a tinted moisturizer, they provide sheer coverage and give the skin the moisture that it needs! Good luck!

no makeup is best for your skin, true. but a good water based makeup can be okay. the most important thing to remember is clean you face a couple of times a day with something mild like cetaphil ( you can get at any drug store) Never sleep in makeup, use sun screen and take good care of you skin while your young, you will be glad you did later on in life.

clinique, almay, neutrogena, prescriptives,chanel have good liquid foundations. Stay away from cheap cover girl, wet n' wild, and nyc, liquid foundation that can mess up your skin. You should look for liquid foundations that say Hypo-allergenic. If you have oily skin look for liquid foundations that say water based.

its fine for u i use it but make sure to get the right tone for ur skin because if u have fair skin and u use something that makes ur skin look really dark it will look orange and make sure to a little below ur chin and up to the tipity top of ur forhead almost touching ur hair so u cant see the lines of the different color shades.

yeah its really not good for your skin. it could leave your skin really oily which can cause you to start breaking out. you might want to just try applying light powder.
