What is the best powder foundation to use?

I am 13 and i have been using liquid foundation for a while and ive only realised that its not so good for your skin! I have a bit of acne on my face and i would like to cover it up. I live in Ireland and if some people colud tell me what is the best powder foundation,that would be great!!


Thanx!!! xxWhat is the best powder foundation to use?
It's great that you wanna wear mineral makeup instead of liquid! :D I really reccomend that you get Bare Minerals. I live in England and have found it in selfridges stores (I'm not sure if you have them in Ireland) Also, It's on tv shopping channel QVC, though I'm not sure if you have that either!


Here are the stores you can get it from in Ireland: http://www.bareescentuals.co.uk/shop/sho鈥?/a>


Here are the shades: http://www.bareescentuals.co.uk/id/prod_鈥?/a> If you want to see the shades ON people then click the button that says shade selector


Once you have found your shade then you could get it on amazon/ebay etc.


Bare minerals will cover your acne, and since it only has 5 ingreiants (and no nasty chemicals) it will help your acne get better. It's also great for young skin (I don't wear foundation anymore buy I was in LOVE with this one, and I'm nearly 15 now). I realise its a little expensive, but it is really good and the tub last FOREVER! So it works out in the end. So yeah, its awesome! Hope I helped!! :D





EDIT - I just noticed someone wrote that bare minerals dries out your skin. Well I used it for ages, and my sensitive skin didn't dry out, it was fine. I guess it really depends on your skin type, but I don't think it dries it out.What is the best powder foundation to use?
Mineral foundation is the best, fortanatly the main brands seemed to have cottoned onto this so most make-up brands make mineral make-up now, these are free from harmful ingredients and oils so healthier for your skin. Mineral foundations give very good coverage but don't feel heavy or clog pores as other foundations can, if you suffer from spots this is perfect as it covers the spots without causing more. Try Bare Minerals SPF15 Foundation http://www.bareminerals.com it's not too expensive and lasts a long time, or I'm currently using Maybelline Pure Foundation Mineral which is a nicer texture to some of the other brands. Maybelline also do a pressed powder and liquid mineral foundations so whatever type of foundation you like to use they'll have a mineral version.





Another suggestion if you want something light and natural is to try tinted moisturizers, they are hard to find as self-tan moisturizers are more popular, but Nivea Visage Young Be Beautiful is great and cheap too. Use this as moisturizer, then use a light brush of mineral foundation, it evens out tone without being heavy, then powder sets your make-up and prevents shine.
i use smashbox halo.


its better than bare minerals, because bare minerals drys out your skin.


samshbox doesnt. also makeup forever is really good, because it really does last a long time and makes your skin look flawless. it just doesnt let your skin breathe as much as smashbox does.





hope that helps :D
