I bought fit me maybelline and that broke me out pretty bad so I returned it. The loose powder I use is by Lancome but I bought that years ago so I am not sure if that broke me out too because it's old?

Please list some good high end foundation and powder that I can buy at Ulta.

Ashley - do you have acne prone skin? If yes, you don't have any problems with breaking out using the products you mentioned?

Watch out for the Urban Decay Naked Skin foundation...I tried it when it first came out and the color I was matched to made me look ashy. Tried the next color up and it gave me the same ashy dry look. The undertones in the darker shades really aren't WOC friendly which is a shame. If your ULTA has a Lancome booth I would investigate their foundation color range and applying a few along your jawline and chin to find out if its a true match. I say the chin because many WOC tend to be a lil darker in this area (at least I know I am). Its easy to correct but if your foundation looks ashy all over then the undertone is right for you. Hope this helped a little.

Sorry for the late reply. Yes I have extremely oily, sensitive, and acne prone skin and basically everything breaks me out but I've never had any problems with this making me break out. I still do but I can wear no makeup and still get acne.

I've never had issues with Chanel Perfection Lumiere, Lancome Teinte Idole or Bare Minerals. MAC made me break out. Look for foundation that's non-comedogenic.

My skin is combo oily, sensitive, and acne prone: I use the Sephora 10 Hr Foundation...it's 20 dollars and you get a lot. It's also oil free and non-comedogenic. It gives a nice dewy finish and (when primed) it doesn't slide around my t zone.
I use it with MAC pro longwear concealer, and they mesh really well. That concealer has never broken me out, but I wouldn't ever use any other mac foundation or concealer haha...

I have acne prone skin and when I wore foundation, I wore MUFE HD. For the past few months I've just been wearing concealer to cover up my dark spots, blemishes, and other imperfections and it works wonderfully. I use MUFE Full Cover Concealer. It never breaks me out and covers amazingly.

I have very sensitive prone to mild acne and the foundations I've tried that didnt break me out are lancome teint idole ultra, mac prolong wear foundation, estee lauder double wear, Clinique even better and no7 super light foundation. Rimmel, maybelline and revlon break me out pretty bad so I stick to the ones I've just mentioned.

Thank you all so much. I really appreciate it. I think I'm going to try the urban decay. If that's not successful then I'll go on the others that was mentioned in this thread. Thanks ladies.

It cosmetics! I have the most sensitive skin and am fine with their cc cream and celebration foundations (powder). Both have light to medium coverage. Also their bye bye redness is amazing! QVC will likely be releasing Christmas specials soon.
