saying bye bye to loose powder

[southeastastra]

what can i use instead? seems to be too drying now ?

do you need to use anything ? I presume you mean on top of foundation to 'fix' it ?

Can you mix a powder with a moisturiser?

yes to fix it, i put on powder then spend ages trying to make it look invisible iykwim!

how about just using some mineral powder foundation ?

I use Benefits Dr Feelgood followed by foundation faker
here

Tis Good

I have dry skin and I use
moisturiser
sometimes benefit primer
vitalumiere
benefit dandelion powder

the Laura Geller range is amazing, it's basically baked creams to a powder finish.

Very soft, no different in application to powder apart from it never looks cakey or dries into crags lines as it was liquid and is now powder.

from QVC - watch one of her shows and you will see how easy it is to apply - it's incredibly popular in the states

I don't use foundation in summer just her balancing powder, a very weird looking swirly colour of brown, orange, pale tan which when applied looks like a light tan/balanced complexion (I am super pale like Nicole Kidman and it works great for me if applied lightly). Again, it's one of her baked cakes.

I heart it

i dont use pwoder at all

ooh lots to try out thanks, never tried the mineral stuff that sounds intriguing.

the laura geller stuff looks interesting too will have to watch out for it on qvc

MAC blot powder compact - just pat it where you need it - 'tis wondrous & invisible.

MAC Mineralize, really good (speaker as a reformed loose powder addict who has had to relearn the rules!)

body shop do a face base it is a pressed powder but you do not need any foundation

I love lillylolo mineral foundations and powders, eye make up and blushers.

All good, and you can get tiny little tester pots before you buy a big one for about 50p.

They are all SPF15 as well. Excellent.
