I have hyperpigmentation and redish skin not to mention any blemishes! I am a long time devotee to Jane Iredales pure pressed base. It gives great coverage and i only need to use a little concealer. Also this powder is great for irritated skin ie sunburns irritation...it wont break you out. Whenever i go to my derm for a chemical peel she applies a thick coat of this powder after my treatment and i can tell a huge difference, such a relief!

Bare Minerals gave me trouble too. I like Neutrogena's powder foundation. I just do a little spot treatment if I have super red spots and cove.

@mint p. i don't really consider dream matte powder as POWDER FOUNDATION, it seems more of a setting powder.

May sound crazy... but I love Mary Kay mineral powder foundation.... just kinda smoothes everything out.

I also have combo skin. I used BM for about 3 years, with no adverse skin reactions but it was always too yellow on me, even in its lightest shade. Hearing all the raving about MAC's Mineralize Skinfinish Natural, I bought it as a setting powder for under eye concealer..but ended up using it as that and powder foundation - it works better than anything ive ever tried. Coverage depends on how dense the brush you use is- I use BM's flawless face brush, so it packs on the powder a bit to about medium coverage. Covers my pores and uneven skintone caused by rosaecea beautifully and the finish is like a semi-matte.

Mac studio fix powder

The ones by MAC & MUFE are awesome. But I must agree stay away from Bare Minerals.. there seems to be such a high percentage of people that it just doesn't work for.

Macs studio fix powder foundation! its full coverage,but you can make it sheer to medium!

Mac studio fix - if u want full coverage use a makeup sponge, medium coverage use a kabuki brush and buff it in - for light coverage use a powder brush. This powder is incredibly versatile. Best for oily/combination skins. If u find it looks too powdery wait 3 mins and it will settle in nicely. If you are impatient spritz some mac fix + lighly for a nice dewy finish and this eliminates the powder finish instantly.

Mac studio fix, and BM are not photo ready, they contain mica and spf. Try MUFE duo mat if youre oily or smashbox halo powder.
