Can you please recommend a light feeling foundation for combination to oily skin?

Estee Lauder Doublewear Light? I got a sample from Debenhams but the colour was wrong. Revlon Colourstay is pretty good but defintely not as 'light' feeling.

YSL Fusion Ink. Pricey but worth every penny. Ask for sample to get the right shade- they have fab little pots with a week's worth of foundation in them. Amazing stuff!

I have oily skin and use Chanel Vitalumiere. It has good coverage but a light feel and is long lasting. I believe Vitalumiere Aqua is good for oily skin too.

I've tried the double wear light but couldn't get good colour and it still looked very made up. I will get samples of the ysl and chanel. Thanks ladies Flowers

I use bare minerals ready powder foundation. Goes on so quick & when I'm in a rush I don't bother with finishing powder & it still lasts well.

I user Garnier BB Cream (for oily/combination skin - the one with the blue label). It's available in two shades: light and medium.

Usually about £10 but is often on offer at a third off.

I use the Garnier BB cream for oily skin too and it's been great.
The coverage is good and it's doesn't clog up on my skin or feel too heavy. I've always had oily skin and hate heavy foundations on it. This one seems to min amuse the oil too.
