I've tried all different kinds of foundations from: Maybelline's Super Stay, Maybelline's Fit Me Foundation, to Loreal's Infallible. I need something with really good coverage, but I don't want it to look cakey. I also need something to match my skin tone.. I'm very fair. But, sometimes I just mix my foundations to find the right shade. I can't seem to find a foundation that doesn't rub off on everything, or too oily for my skin. Help? Suggestions! :) Thanks girls!

Try the Covergirl NatureLuxe foundation... I happen to LOVE that foundation, and it seems to be extremely long lasting for me, especially when you use pressed powder on top of it. I'm pretty fair as well, and in the winter I use the shade 905, which I think may be the lightest.

Hi Kerri! If you are looking for a good foundation that can be found in a drugstore I would suggest trying Revlon Colorstay. It provides full coverage that lasts up to 24 hours. It is oil free and you have the choice between combination/oily and normal/dry skin. Identifying your skin type will help you determine what foundation type will fit you best, so you dont look oily or cakey. It comes in 20 different shades, I beleive, and stores like Ulta have testers our so you can find your perfect match.
Hope this helps <3

Your foundation is suppose to blend with your skin and then get concealer to cover up problem areas. I have fair skin, but it has a lot of ruddy undertones. I use a foundation that matches my skin but use concealer to cover up the redness on my forehead and cheeks. Try using oil blotting pads and a translucent powder over makeup to set it.
