Need a new all in one powder/cream foundation - what do you recommend?

[FossilSister]

Am too lazy to use liquid foundation and have always used Clinique all in one powder/cream foundation - used to be called City Base but they've changed it. I now find it too dry. Can anyone recommend a good one? Not too greasy tho. Normal skin (ish!) I love Vincent Longo but it's too expensive for every day. Anything similar?

I was really impressed with Benefit's one, which is called something poncey like 'Some kinda Gorgeous'.

I wouldn't use anyother foundation than Chanel. I use their Mat Lumiere liquid (ideal for oiler skin) they do a cream compact too. I know lots of MNers swear by the Vitalumiere (dryer skins) which comes in liquid and cream. Wel worth the £25, you won't be dissapointed.

Thanks.

Bobbi Brown Moisturising Creme Foundation is lovely

philosophy supernatural is very good. its a mineral powder, but i've ot dry skin and you just don't know you're earing make-up. if you really want to you can mix it with moisuriser to make foundation or water to make concealer. really fab.

Am going shopping this am and will try the Benefit and the Bobbi Brown as I like their stuff. Thanks all.

I'd go for MAC Studio Fix.

chanel double perfection is cream to powder finish... ideal for combination skin- i love it

chanel very good at giving a sample of all there foundations for you to try at home...

Virgin Vie one step face base is good.

I just bought some Dream Mousse (L'Oreal...Maybelline..? ) from Boots. I am very impressed. I HATE most foundation as it feel really heavy.

I like this though.

Powdery ones aer very ageing and cracked looking vitalumiere is good if you can afford it Clarins do a really natural one too but not sure of the name

Good thread! I also was a devotee of Clinique City Base, the "replacement" is just not in the same league. Have taken notes....
