I've worn Double wear light with mac mineralize skinfinish for a while now. I love that its got great coverage and lasts but I feel a bit full in it at the moment.

Any recommendations?

It often depends what condition my skin is in which usually depends on degree of coldness/heat/sun exposure. Of course what works during the height of summer is too dry for winter and that's before I even get to the dazzling range of colours needed over the course of 12 months.

But right now from my collection the one which is working for me is Shiseido -looks incredible with the remnants of a little sun-kissing and has enough moisture to deal with blustery autumn days.

Once my skin has lost enough colour I'll be back on aqualumiere (love Chanel foundations).

Max factor CC cream. Brilliant stuff. Have been converted from my usual Dior.

Bare minerals. Add a little bare minerals warmth and you are good to go.

That's harsh, Betsy!

What's the story with the Bumble and Bumble?

Was on Doublewear Light. Changed last week to a Clarins Comfort one. That with the beauty balm underneath - well I am just glowing and dewy !

I have very very very dry skin. It cannot get enough water.

No 7 Intelligent Colour here as well.

I can't bear feeling claggy, and this is so light, but gives enough coverage (over scars, spots, thread veins etc) that people don't run away screaming in the street!

Thanks for all of these suggestions! My phone wasn't working yesterday so I'm only now seeing them. Not sure where to start really!
