i use the EL double wear at the moment but my skin is getting less oily the older i get and i think i need to alter my foundation to suit.

i have combination skin. no wrinkles. a bit of redness on the cheek area and im quite pale.

any ideas what to try?

The Touché Eclait one is nice.

Lancôme Tient idol.

The double wear bb glow cream is just beautiful!! Much more dewy and light but makes your skin look amazing. I'm 40 and it makes my skin look perfect. Get a sample and try it :)

i use no7 tinted moisturiser, it's good nice smell and good coverage great for summer. use dw light in the winter.

use shu uemura base that works well with it

I'd definitely go for something lighter, especially if your skin's getting drier and only has a little redness. Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk is my all time favourite, though other great ones are Bobbi Brown's Skin Foundation, MAC Face and Body and Lancôme's newest-I can't remember the name but it's very thin and watery and doesn't look like it would do anything at all but actually gives a very natural and lovely finish.

I have swopped to dior forever skin (I think that's what it's called - in my head I can't help reading it as dior foreskin!)

It's much lighter but seems to still have the coverage and staying power I liked from the double wear.

i was hoping for a clear winner! i may need to try a few by the looks of this.

although my skin is good i do like decent coverage without looking thick or cakey.

I love the Clinique cc cream - great natural long lasting coverage but with dewiness - I have dry skin and red cheeks - and doesn't settle in dry bits of cake in creases

Bobbi Brown skin foundation spf15.

The only foundation I've ever used right up and bought 3 times in succession.

BB are THE best on the high street at colour matching too imho.
