Favorite Foundations and powders

Hi I’m looking for good foundations and powders for oily skin. Preferably light to medium coverage. I’m also looking for a pressed powder if there are any recommendations. Thank you!

Re: Favorite Foundations and powders

I have oily skin too & love the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Pressed Micro powder @sephora I use that over my skin care products without foundation; if I want to use something like foundation, the Paula’s Choice Super Light Daily Wrinkle Defense Sunscreen SPF 30 is tinted & works great as a foundation/primer. I also love these 2 @sephora Laura Mercier Ultra Blur loose powder or Givenchy Prisme Libre loose powder to top it all off!  And Paula’s Choice has the best sunscreens for oily skin, I have used those for years along with pressed or loose powders instead of foundation because the combo makes your skin look so nice.

DIOR Backstage Face & Body Foundation  

Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Natural Glow Foundation  

SEPHORA COLLECTION Best Skin Ever Liquid Foundation  

 

Powders..honestly I like Cover Fx, but it's not sold here anymore - check their direct site if you're interested.

 

There's also

Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear Powder Foundation - I like, not a love, it hard pans too easily, which isn't a deterrent for me, but I think the frequent panning let me go through this a lot faster than any other powder foundation I had.

bareMinerals bareMinerals Original Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 15 Warm Dark (ignore the shade), the OG powder foundation for the oily and oily-combo.  Since it's not as new, I think people have forgotten about it, but it's really good when it comes to light coverage and minimizing oils.

Haven't tried, but sephora also has SEPHORA COLLECTION Best Skin Ever Matte Powder Foundation 06Y Light (again, ignore the shade) and also their SEPHORA COLLECTION Microsmooth Multi-Tasking Baked Face Powder Foundation 30 Sand , which is more of a finishing powder IMO, but can be used for light coverage.

Re: Favorite Foundations and powders

The Fenty powder foundation is currently on sale at the direct site, FYI @mandol
