Other than powder, is there any way to make Foundation last longer? Like for 8 to 10 hours?

Answer 1

Try using a primer. Smashbox makes a great one. And if you need to deal with oil, use blotting sheets instead of caking more powder on.

Answer 2

Mary Kay makes awesome blotting pads- it really does extend the length of your foundation especially when you have oily skin. Also as mentioned above you could always start with a a primer- usually used more for the eye area.

Answer 3

Well there are primers that you apply before your makeup, and that will create a smooth canvas for everything to go on perfectly. Then after you are done with all of your makeup, you can set it with a makeup setting spray, which will help your makeup stay in place and not move around throughout the day.

Answer 4

Go to www.sephora.com and use a foundation that's in a compact, like Goddess. It lasts a long time. The more expensive, the longer it lasts -- unfortunately.

Answer 5

There are also primers that can go under foundation to make them last longer.
