In the market for a new foundation

[BananasAreEvil]

I am 50 years old, usually use ELDW. Looking for something oil free but also alcohol free I think, as my eyes seem to be incredibly sensitive to make up I have always used. Any recommendations?

Do you want heavy coverage, to replace the ELDW?

I'm early 50s and have just bought a water based Bobbi Brown foundation that I really liked in the shop. I haven't worn it yet but it was light ish and went in beautifully

I have just bought the IT cosmetics oil free foundation (you can buy a smaller tube from boots) and I love it! I am a doublewear fan as well but wanted to try something else. I love it, it’s full coverage and my skin looks great!

Thank you all. I am keen on trying IT cosmetics oil free foundation because it's got 40 SPF.
Do you know what shade I'd go for if my ELDW is Fresco?
I have also been considering Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation. Anyone tried it?

Yes I've tried that one, it's nice but find NARS Sheer Glow suits my skin better.

Have you tried the findation website? It does colour matches based on ones you already use.

Looks lovely @Uramaki but it's not oil free

So based on ELDW Fresco, I should use Light (Taupe), but there isn't a shade called Light Taupe, there's Light and Light Medium, so I guess I'd go for the Light Medium...

@BananasAreEvil I only had a option of ‘light’ at my Boots in the sample ones so I just picked that and I would say I would need light medium for summer but light would probably would for winter!

I’m DW shade 2n2 buff for reference!

I'm a huge fan of Revlon make up, their Candid foundation is really really good, I get compliments on how my skin looks when I'm wearing it, plus it comes in a tube which is easier to stash in your make up bag.
