I'm looking for a powder foundation that have at least medium to full coverage. I don't want to look powdery at all. I have combo/oily skin, I was thinking if chanel's double perfection is good? I tried MAC's studio fix powder & Make up forever mat duo, both of them breaks me out =(

Hey girly, I tried both too, and I broke out really bad. I've been suffering from acne and very oily/sensitive skin for over a decade now.

Unfortunately, at this point in my life, I have to use really affordable make up or drug store brands. With that being said, right now I'm using up my sample of Meow Cosmetics (you can google them, as they are an online ONLY company). Their samples are pretty cheap or a reasonable amount of mineral powder ($1 samples). Another poster, Mandy K., previously recommended this line to another poster.

My break outs had died down in the past week or so (just re-entered this mineral make up game), so right now I have a lot of scarring. But this brand provides the coverage like any other medium/full coverage liquid foundation I was on prior to doing mineral (again) and after doing compact powder (MAC and MUFE).

I just bought Smashbox's Self-Adjusting Powder Foundation and I realllly like it. When I put it on dry it came out a really nice heavy coverage powder and wet it goes on nicely. Another person reviewed it in the review section and said she liked it better than Mac Studio fix but that it would be best on oily skin (so maybe it would work for your skin type). I've only tried it once now- and I have pretty dry skin- but so far I really like it. Cargo also makes a good heavy coverage powder foundation.

My favorite foundation of the moment is Chanel's Vitalumiere Aqua. It seriously feels like i'm not wearing foundation. It feels like a moisturizer, but still gives me good coverage. I set it with MAC's prep and prime or MSF natural.

What about a mineral foundation such as Bare Minerals? Those are really nice as foundation and are good for the skin.
