Best foundation from Boots/Superdrug?

Can anyone recommend one please? I use Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation, but it won't arrive until after weekend so I need something I can grab in boots. I'm pale with combination skin/oily T-zone. Thank you!

Revolution conceal and hydrate. Very good.

I really like the NYX born to glow foundation or pretty much any of the No7 ones

I was about to suggest Nyx Born To Glow! Dewy complexion and decent coverage/longevity, was impressed enough to repurchase!

Another vote for revolution here

Thanks! But dewy/glowy = oily on my face sadly. Forget the foundation can anyone recommend me a new face Grin

I went for Revolution conceal and define, thank for all your help. Absolutely no testers out so had to gamble on the shade but it's turned out ok! Also got the powder and setting spray on 3 for 2 Grin. Off for a cocktail or 3 now!

Revlon colorstay - they do one for only/combination skin, as well as one for normal skin. Make sure you choose the oily/combination one cos the packaging looks the same for both. Really good foundation.

I wouldn't say it's glowy OP. I'm 49 and I can't do that dewy look that young skins can carry off any more. I use a bit of powder blush on top and then set it with some fixing spray. Lasts all day on me.

I think Rimmel lasting Finnish is a gd everyday one. Medium coverage and quite cheap. I usually get it for about £6 think Superdrug has it 2 for £12 last time.

Another one I really like that has medium to full coverage is Milani, 2in1 concealer and foundation available from Boots I've seen it in store too.

Well you’re likely to find something suitable then, which is good. I was alabaster back when I used Skin foundation. My skin is very oily and in the future you might want to look at mineral foundation. I found it sat better on me than the Skin foundation.

Revlon in Ivory. I’m deathly pale.
