Recommendation for a foundation that doesn't rub off onto collar of jackets

I am looking for some recommendations for a foundation with medium coverage that doesn't rub off on the inside collars of coats and jackets. I hate that grubby look when the inside collar is stained with make up. Any suggestions much appreciated

Revlon colourstay works well for me. Having light skin I found my basically white foundation rubbing off on to my black work polo looked awful. Bought this and it stays perfectly all day with a bit of translucent powder over the top, and good coverage without looking cakey or anything x

Do these even exist? I think an extremely matte foundation possibly.. But throughout the day mixed with the warmth of your skin, oil and sweat, its inevitable.

I think the trick is to get a foundation that matches your skin tone perfectly and put it on your face down to jaw line only. If you go beyond the jawline into neck territory then it will rub off. Do you wear powder or bronzer - I find it's that that marks the most so am extra careful with it when wearing white shirts etc.

My coats and jackets are destroyed with bronzer

I've changed from garnier bb cream (lovely finish but didnt stay put) to the lovely minerals complexion rescue (thanks to the mumsnet trial) the bare minerals is significantly better, a very even cover and lasts a full day into evening but its not 100% colour fast. If I blow my nose, dab my mouth with a napkin a small amount will offset.

Pre this bare minerals trial I was chatting about the problem with the Clarins counter consultant to ask about using a powder to fix the cream but she suggested whats actually needed to fix it in place is an undercoat (primer).

On one of the swap threads a wilkinsons primer at £3 was recommended so I thought that wasn't too much of an investment to see if it solves the problem.
