Depends on skin type, undertone, what shade you need. Generally speaking (and judging by your previous posts), this is for a pro kit. For a pro kit, I'd recommend the RCMA foundation palettes due to the ability to easily mix and the shade range.

For a pro kit I would second rcma. the shade range and versatility for skin type is there. you can easily mix it with face oils or a moisturizer and the ingredients make it less likely to irritate skin. a similar cream product that is a bit more dry if you are often working in humidity and heat is kryolan, I've also tried graftobian and found it had more slip than RCMA, I can't remember why I didn't prefer it at the time but I remember thinking it was still good... for a liquid I would suggest a few shades of face atalier and the adjusters or a few shades of makeup forever HD that you can mix to customize. there are a few brands I really like for a multitude of skin types (like ysl, Ellis faus, and the GA luminous silk) but the cost just doesn't make them worth it for a kit.

I haven't used it personally. I've known a few people who have though. I remember I didn't get it in the past when I was looking because according to most of them its good but its no better than graftobian or rcma, which I had already decided to go with. so if its more available to you I'd say give it a shot. have you looked at getting a few samples from camera ready cosmetics? I can't remember too my head of they do ben nye samples but they do samples of most other foundations.

I personally use the MAC Studio fix fluid or the Kryolan Dermacolor.
The RCMA was okay, I liked the coverage and how it looked like skin but the undertones were "meh" as far as for olive skin, the SH-II wasn't yellow enough and a bit pink. I did have a problem with it constantly looking shiny. Not necessarily oily but just shiny.
The dermacolor has better undertones for olive skin since it does offer a tad bit of green in it and the warmer shades are also nice too. It's drier than RCMA and works good on oily skin which I find more versatile because you can always add an oil to help it work better on dry skin but when you use a cream more for dry skin you're going to have to put a ton of powder.
The Studio Fix Fluid is a staple. Gives great coverage and also photographs nicely. I don't have all the shades but I have quite a few from each undertone and just mix accordingly
