Foundations/ Concealers That DO and DON’T Oxidize *THREAD*

Hey guys! I’ve been having problems finding a good foundation and concealer that don't oxidize (or not too bad).  I thought we could create a list of foundations and concealers that do and don’t oxidize to help our fellow beauty lovers find their perfect match!

 

* I got a lot of free foundation/concealer samples from Sephora (online orders) that I've never used.  I guess I can put these to good use now.

I’ll start:

DO Oxidize:

- Fenty Beauty Foundation original formula (oxidizes a lot)

- YSL All Hours foundation (not too bad but noticeable in sunlight)

- Urban Decay Stay Naked Weightless foundation (worst of all tested, don't even think about buying it omfgwtf)

- Clinique Beyond Perfecting Super Concealer

- Clinique Stay-Matte oil free makeup (horrible)

 

DON’T Oxidize:

- NARS All Day Luminesces

- Kat Von D Lock it Foundation

- Bare Minerals Bare PRO 16 Hour Full Coverage Concealer (slightly noticeable but not bad)

- Lancome Skin Feels Good (not bad)

 

I find that most of the foundations and concealers look ok indoors but look horrible in natural sunlight.  For most of them, I would recommend using 1-2 shades lighter and ALWAYS ask for samples and test them before buying!

Also, I mix my foundations to create my own color.  Sometimes I mix 3-4 shades and have been doing this for years.
