Help! Terrible makeup?
I have combination skin and I've tried moisturising with an oil based moisturiser + an oil based foundation, and I've tried moisturising with a water based moisturiser + water based foundation….but always at the end of the day my face feels tight and my makeup is half gone and it looks 'dotty', as if it has clumped up in some areas.
I apply with a sponge, make sure everything is blended…I've even tried clinique's moisture surge spray (if im wearing water based makeup), but still it gets blotchy/clumpy after about 1 hour.
I HAVE to wear makeup because I have a bad case of hyper pigmentation
. I believe I am really beautiful, I love the way I look, but my skin doesn't bring out the best of my beauty. I don't know what to do, I'm always hiding my face, and my skin feels terrible and I can't concentrate on my college work…when I get home, I check my makeup in the mirror, and you can see my pigmentation…it looks all grey, and my makeup is all over the place, hard and clumpy (even though its a nice golden colour when I leave the house)
What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions of a foundation for TERRIBLE skin like mines?
I need a high coverage that doesnt cake up or dry up.
Why does makeup look perfect on everyone but me?

Best Answer – Chosen by Voters I always get comments on how great my skin looks. I dont buy my makeup at wal mart or any other stores like that. Its either too expensive or too cheap. I use Avon because a lot of their foundations are not oil based, which is what causes skin to become irritated. I like the mineral foundation. I use that and it looks wonderful. I also sell Avon and the mineral foundation is not nearly as expensive as others. If you are interested in taking a look at different products go to my website at http://www.youravon0o0com/deniseganz and type in foundation. You will find tons of different kinds at great prices (better than Wal-Mart and cheaper then Macys) and it will make your skin look and feel a heck of a lot better.

Have you ever tried Merle Norman makeup? They have something called "Total Finish" it gives really great coverage and is great for dry skin! Go to the store in your area and just tell them your issue and what you've tried and tell them that someone suggested you try their Total Finish foundation and just let them put some on you so you can see the look and feel of it.(I know how you feel, I went through TERRIBLE acne and always felt like makeup looked better on other people and not me…)
Allantoin is the best thing to make your skin stay young and beautiful. The only thing is that it is found only in our urine more than a week after it has been passed. This is because the uric acid slowly changes into allantoin through oxidation. The strong smell is attributed to this and it is not dirty at all. This is the best kept secret of many a model and beauty queen, not to mention the secret ingredient of most expensive beauty and skin care products.
revlon colorstay has is great if you want full coverage.. you can also buy it in the combination kindi like clinique superbalanced because it looks natural and is good for combination skin but it only provides medium coverage so i would recommend benefits erase paste its really goodalternatively mineral foundation can also give heavy coverage…i recommend these brands:everyday minerals (US)lily lolo (UK)
Use mineral make up from Echium Skin Care. Mineral make up has a better quality compare to regular make up because mineral make up suits to face perfectly. Besides it is naturally done and no chemical process. So, it is healthy for our skin and won't harm or damage the skin. Echium Skin Care is also giving vouchers. So, you save a lot of money.

Go into a big department store like debenhams and talk to the girls there. They should know how to help you and give you a free trial. Keep going back til you find one that works!
Benefit's "hello flawless" works for me, hope it will work for you!
i know exactley what ur talking about! ihave that problem too what i use is an oil free mousse fundation im not sure who its made by but i beleave its cover girl…anyway it stays on for hours and doesnt make skin oiley. Its very light and feels like ur wearing nothing! and just a tip for applying ur makeup try using a foundation brush it blends makeup 10x better than a sponge and it doesnt soke up the makeup making ur makeup last longer and save money
i hope that helped!
You need to check out Aveda brand of natural care for skin and hair.That company is probably one of the best ones in the world that actually creates miracles for your skin.If you find their salon, ask someone to help you find the right skin care for you (plus their stuff is so concentrated it will last for months if not more). I absolutely love their foundations. They are all plant based. The foundations do not oxidize and last without a primer (unless if your skin is very oily and it's summer and you want the extra protection). You can pick anything from a medium-full coverage to sheer, but whatever you pick it will cover everything. Plus get their concealer, the stuff is amazing, the best concealer i've ever tried (and I spent waaay to much money on other concealers). If you can't find their salon, go to their website http://www.aveda0o0com And if you sign-up through their website, as a gift you'll get a free shipping.
