I'm using No7 (from Boots) Intelligent Colour Foundation with SPF 6 and its hypo allergenic
I think this foundation is the greatest foundation ever because its SUPER LIGHT. Previously I was using Revlon and i feel that it is way TOO THICK and they do not have a tone that matches my skin color. My skin is relatively smooth (no pimples, only an occasional pimple or two now and then) so I think the No7 foundation is perfect for covering up my huge pores and other flaws. I was surprised when I first used it too because it is SUPER light.
When i went into Boots I was going to see if there is a better Revlon foundation but the lady suggested me to try No7 foundation. I've never really gotten anything from No7 and the brand doesn't really look good and I don't like using cheap brands when it comes to makeup. I wasn't really looking to get anything from No7 cuz I didn't think their product was good. And when the lady was trying to sell it to me I wasn't really interested until i TRIED IT and it was GREAT!
For all you people who have smooth (almost flawless, pimple free) skin, use the No7 foundation from Boots! Its called Intelligent Colour foundation.
BUT, for those who have skin problems .. you'll need a thicker foundation like Revlon, so that it covers the holes and the flaws on your skin.

bare escentuals (correct spelling) it is mineral make up and you get it in good beauty salons or qvc or the net. Cost £24 and brush £15 lasts for ages and your skin improves. Still use a concealer for the areas under the nose or for highlighting if you wish.
Im a beauty therapist and love it and say it is the best on the market with out a doubt. Go into a salon and they will be able to recommend the best colour for you. If your in the uk yell.com may have the local salons which stock it failing that try the websites.
I suppose lancome, elizabeth arden and chanel etc are all ok, really not as nice a finish.

Christian Dior
Teint Diorlight.
Its a fantastic oil free foundation that blends with your skin lovely. It is very light and doesnt 'cake' on your skin. It leaves a luminous finish. Its about £30 to buy from dept stores but you can get it on Ebay for less than half of that:-)

From a whole CRAPLOAD of experience, one of the best foundations that I've used is just the Neutrogena foundation with 2% salycic acid in it. It gives you great, smooth coverage and clears your skin without looking caky. Also you can try the bare minerals ir I.D. powder foudations. All of these work the best!! Good luck!!

I use the Dream Matte Mousse foundation-Ivory by Maybelline.It blendswith your skin beautifully and is super soft. It feels like you are not even wearing makeup and there are tons of shades for every skin color. Good luck! I hope I helped!

I love bare minerals.... it's not cakey and it is really awesome coverage without looking like you have 3 inches of foundation on your face. It gives all skin a nice glow. I love it!

i use elizabeth ardins flawless finish in honey beige.it goes on a bit thick so i wet the sponge before applying it.this covers up every spot and blemish and blends really well and your skin can breath underneath it.i would recommend it and its not expensive i paid about 15 pounds and its lasted a good 8 months
