Foundation that doesn't lock pores

Hey, 

 

im looking for good foundation that will not clog my pores and don't make orange skin looking face... you know what I mean? Something light but with kinda coverage and not Matt. I tried houselabs but completely didn't work for me. 
what would you recommend ? 

Re: Foundation that doesn't lock pores

Orange oxidation issue is almost always an undertone mismatch combined with a formula that skews warm. For non-comedogenic formulas, avoid anything with "isopropyl myristate, coconut oil derivatives, or heavy waxes" high in the INCI, these are the most consistent pore-clogging culprits. Look for a water-based formula with "dimethicone" buildable medium coverage, and a satin finish. For undertone look for shade descriptions that specify "neutral or cool".

What have you tried @mainkaish ?  Because foundation is sitting on the skin, if  you're sensitive, oily, acne prone, etc you want to align your skin prep as such.
