I just have to set with powder and use blotting papers around hour 5-6 but then again my skin is super oily! I apply it with a damp beauty blender and it makes my skin look great!<br />In the summers I end up switching to a BB cream with Meow Minerals powder foundation over it. It's much better than B.E, none of the itchy ingredients. I also use a green color corrector under the bb cream on days where my rosacea flares up.

I have combo skin with pretty intense extremes - huge pores, really oily T-zone, usually need to blot after 3 hours, and really dry patches on my cheeks and chin and around my nose where product tends to cling. I just started using the Jouer Matte Moisture Tint and so far I'm impressed - it truly sets, doesn't look cakey, blends in well even when my skin tone changes a bit, and stays matte into the afternoon! I used to looove the L'Oreal Magic BB cream because of its pore-blurring abilites, but it never really set and I had shine break through really quickly. I'm appreciating my splurge!jzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12712186912440701768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-87943640556194318082016-04-14T09:30:16.598-07:002016-04-14T09:30:16.598-07:00My skin is pretty much normal these days, where I ...My skin is pretty much normal these days, where I used to be a bit oilier in the T-zone. I probably use the Rimmel BB cream with the orange cap (for radiant skin, evening out tone, etc.) the most, since it's a good match for my skin and performs well (not too drying, etc.) and if I sweat I don't look like a melting wax figure. I also like the Physicians Formula Youthful Wear Spotless CC Cream. I've been doing more BB and CC creams lately because I get a bit of moisturizing and sun protection with those. Now and then I'll use mineral foundation (MBA Cosmetics has an allegedly healing one I like that works well for me), but it's mostly BB and CC cream paired with concealer. My main goal is to get my skin looking better so I need as little makeup as possible come summer.

I recently finished 3 foundations (they were hanging around with 50% or less product) and currently hating how my foundations looks on me (trying out 2 new ones I purchased in the last month). I am so tempted to go to target and buy the Loreal True Match because I love that and finished it back in November..

I can't get enough of that glow, lol. But recently I got a tube of the IT Cosmetics CC cream as I've been really curious about it, and I LOVE the way it feels on my skin. I'm very fair and burn easily so I wear sunscreen every day, usually underneath my foundation because I like to use at least 30 spf and most foundations don't go that high if they have anything at all. Because the cc cream is 50 spf I can skip that step when I use it, and it's like I'm not wearing anything at all, my skin just feels silky soft and like it can breathe. It's awesome. <br /><br />For drugstore foundation I generally stick with Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum foundation.

That being said, the last prestige foundation I bought was MUF Ultra HD. I've wanted to try MAC prolongwear. I went for color matching and a sample and the lady said I was NW20. It looked fine in the store, but seems rather light at home in my own bathroom. I might go back for the next shade up.
