I currently use L'Oreal True Match foundation and I really like it, however I find I can look a bit shiny throughout the day. I'm looking for a high end foundation that has medium but buildable coverage, stays on all day, and is good for my very sensitive skin.

Also,
1. Do you find a big difference between drugstore and high-end foundation?
2. Please recommend a foundation for me

Thank you! I do have very sensitive skin but I've never really broken out from drugstore products. I used to use Marcelle and now I use L'Oreal. I love both but I want something that keeps me a bit more matte, and I hear everyone says how high-end is way better.

I agree with Leigh I love Laura Mercier, I'm running low on my powder foundation and I'm ganna go pic another one up.
I pair this with Lancome teint Idole which is extremely good for sensitive skin, non comodogenic. both this products together is awesome! and the powder stays on all day which makes the Lancome coverage do so as well.

and yesss its a huge difference! I wanted to only use drugstore but when revlon colorstay broke me out that was it for me and I researched a liquid foundation that was good for the skin and hence I picked up lancome.

it can be pricey but you pay for what you get and the lancome foundation has lasted me a yr and is still going strong!! on my lazy days I'd use just the powder which is why I have to purchase it so soon(:

any questions just ask me on this thread or my profile, hope I helped (:

Cover girl 3 in 1 foundation works wonders. Its the beet foundation I've ever used, even in comparison to high end foundation. :)

Orr shauna if you like loreals true match just pair it with the powder I told you and you won't be shiny! guarantee it. the lady at sephora put it on my face to try and I bought it right there and then my face looked flawless and I went home happy because it lasted allll day and I was matte yay!(:

Thank you so much. How much is is the foundation Hana?

And Jes, I've never really been a fan of covergirl products, I've heard they're not good for your skin.

I have used MAC foundation for a really long time and it works great. Pro long wear and studio fix are both good. $30 for each I'm pretty sure. I also recently started using the revlon 24hr Colorstay and I'm in love. It actually gives me a better matte finish all day then the MAC. It's $10. I bought the revlon for oily and combination skin! Good luck :)

I've always wanted to try the Kat Von D foundation.

I've heard good things about Mac but I honestly don't want to try it because the chemicals they use are harsh on your skin. My friend used it and it actually bleached her skin.

Omg! Whattt?! Never heard that but thanks haha. I would like no bleaching of the skin!

Yeah it's pretty crazy! I don't know if it's happened to other people. She has an olive skin tone and it noticeable left white patches on her face.

Estée Lauder Double Wear Foundation!! Stays on all day you can rub your face and it doesn't move! Dries sort of fast so move on the quicker side.
