Neutrogena skin clearing foundation and powder?

Question

I want to try this make up but I am a bit hesitant. I'm used to the covergirl "clean" foundation and compact (the blue ones), and i decided to try something new. I do like my cover girl but i have been breaking out a bit lately.

For cover girl i use Buff beige foundation and the Classic Ivory powder. I just put a little bit of the foundation and finish off with some powder. I dont need heavy coverage.

When i was looking at the neutrogena foundation yesterday i found that Natural Buff was the closest i found to buff beige. The powder only comes in three shades (light, medium, and dark) so i was thinking of going with light because medium looked a little too dark for me.

im like the sunlit color on this chart

Has anyone used both cover girl and neutrogena? which did you like better? were you able to match your color easily? what were your experiences with neutrogena? ect. Thanks!

Answer 1

How about trying a tinted moisturizer instead? First, in answer to your question, if you insist on foundation, then go with Neutrogena, but tinted moisturizer really does work better, and both the Laura Mercier and the Clinique ones work amazingly, you won't even notice it's not foundation, and it looks a lot more natural....

Answer 2

Covergirl used to be a crappy cosmetic company, but now, the products are great. Neutrogena on the other hand has always been recommended by the dermatologists and it is pure and up to code. I would go for Neutrogena.

Answer 3

I used neutrogena, and it builds pimple... i try cover girl, and its turns oily.. both of them is oxidized..

chanel foundation, and its powder is really good... trust me..
i use chanel foundations for years now.. it have a lot of colours, not oxidized, no pimple, stay up for long.. and look very natural and smooth
