Best foundation?

[theflake]

Howdy y'all! I am the matriarch of my mostly-trans-femme dorm room and my 'expertise' only takes me so far. Let's start with some basics (cuz I'm gonna be a recurring feature here probably). What do y'all think is the best foundation for people assigned male at birth? They both appear to have clear, not over-oily skin (a blessing). They are also both very fair. Also need to look into orange (?) concealer for stubble or shadow. Thanks a ton everybody!

I also love the Lancome, it's my favorite! But other great options are the Makeup Forever and Fenty - these all look very natural and blend well with lots of shade options. If you're looking at drugstore options, I really like the Ordinary makeup - though it's not at a drugstore it has the right price and have heard good things about Maybelline Fit Me though I've never used that one personally. Hopefully these options help some!

For color correcting, the sephora brand is a great option but personally I like the Urban Decay skin correcting fluid the most.

Both of these are silicone based, right? I've only dealt with silicone based foundations as sticks so far. This is one where you basically NEED a beauty blender, right?

Hi @theflake,

I personally like the Lancome Teint Idole Foundation. It's medium to full coverage, and really blends well into the skin. Also pretty long lasting!

For orange pigments/concealers, may I recommend the Cover FX color corrector or the MUFE version. It all depends on the coverage you need!

The more info I have (coverage preferences, etc.) the more tailored I'm able to make my responses! Feel free to respond to this post (make sure to @ me) or send me a PM and I'd be happy to assist further!
