Foundation recommendations please!

Can anyone recommend me a foundation. I've been using the YSL touche eclat which used to be great and I got loads of compliments when I wore it, but then they changed it and I don't like it so much. I'm in my 50s with oily skin that's still prone to spots (great). I'm looking for something that gives reasonable coverage but isn't to heavy or mask like. Any suggestions, what works for you? Thanks.

My every day foundation is Estee Lauder Double Wear Nude Water Fresh. It's very natural and lasts!

I am in my 40s and always had dry skin, until a few years ago. Now it’s so oily. So I have had to rethink all my make up and skin care routine.
I am using Nip&Fab glycolic moisturisers, which I really like.
I use blotting sheets before make up.
I am trying Revolution primer which seems good, and cheap as chips.
I use Bourgeois CC on top, and then foundation.
I was using Dior Forever, but ran out and am going to try a YSL one that is supposed to be good for oily skin. I googled a good high street brand to tide me over until I can get to YSL counter, and it said L’Oreal True Match was god for oily skin.
So i grabbed that at Tesco and I’m impressed! For the price it gives lovely coverage for me. I still have oily skin but this does stay on quite well.
