Finding the right foundation

No, mousse foundation isn’t like liquid foundation. I have greasy skin, and have tried both. I can’t actually wear liquid foundation it looks caked on!! But the mousse stuff is easy to apply, just glides on dead smooth and looks so natural! Loads of brands do it but my favourite are Maybelline dream matte mousse and Avon matte mousse. Avril Lavigne does use mousse foundation, I was just looking it up in one of my old magazines. Best thing to do for dry/normal skin is moisturize before you apply so it doesn’t dry out xx

I found out what I had to do to make it look pretty natural. I use the same foundation, I just was using a shade that was too dark for my complexion. Because I’m kinda pale. So, I’m ok now. I don’t know WHY I didn’t think of that sooner. I mean it’s kinda like, the first think I shoulda tried.

I’ve used mineral power brought out my maybelline and it works get the loose powder foundation and the sheer powder to go with it and STAY AWAY FROM CONEALERS!!!

gingermouse - I agree, Maybelline Dreame matte mousse is AMAZING, and it looks quite natural once you’ve worked out what the right colour to get is :)

thnks. Is mousse foundation like liquid foundation? If so, that’s what I’m currently using.

I want skin like Taylor Swift or Avril Lavigne. You could be 3 inches from their face and not tell that they have make-up on.

I don’t know why the other girl said not to use concealer - for me it’s probably the one thing I can’t live without!! And when I tell people “I have really bad spots and greasy skin” they laugh and think I’m joking and usually tell me I must have a damn good concealer then, which I do :-) The type of foundation you use really depends on your skin type to be honest, but I’d steer clear if it’s like mine

sometimes, it depends on your skin type.

if your skin is soft and clear and tone it should go one smoothly, usually the more expensive ones work the best also.

I use a moose foundation that matches my color and I use a mineral concealer on top.

before applying this, apply an oil-free moisturizer to your skin to make it softer and spread/blend better, but you have to wait til it dries before appyling your coverup.

then you apply your moose or liquid concealer wait til it dries then apply your mineral one for a natural glowing look, and for better coverage.

then apply your blush , bronzer or what ever you use.

it might not work perfect, but if you read tips in magasines, they help.

ok firstly are you using liquid foundation? it can do that my tip for you is to switch to loose powder foundation apply a light facial moisteriser under it apply your loose powder foundation with a big soft brush and do it in big circular motions also, to help with pimples and stuff exfoliate everyday and always always always remove make-up before going to sleep! mousse foundation is similar. I had a problem with pimples showing through and loose powder foundation just made them disappear good luck :)

I looked at the Maybeline stuff, it costs too much. But my current foundation covers enough. . . .I guess.

thnks. I’ll try that maybeline stuff. How much does it cost?
