My Foundation Quest

I quit my foundation routine last year of summer because my skin is behaving really well. All I need to do is a touch up of powder foundation which is Palladio and Maybelline Dream matte powder. In short I don't need to hide blemishes at all. Started Fall last year I've been into drinking coffee which is organic of course but still I break out before my monthly period on my forehead  a zit or two which left a scar horribly and I'm not use of it. At night though I use Revlon Photoready foundation and my MAC studio fix fluid which I'm happy about. I felt that I'm not satisfied anymore and I feel ugly with those scars. So for the last 2 or 3 weeks I've been testing these liquid foundation everyday.

MUFE

ESTEE LAUDER

SHISHEIDO

LANCOME TEINT IDOLE

CHANEL VITALUMIERE

MUFE - light to medium coverage, I like it, long lasting, didn't cover my zit scar though, easy to blend

ESTEE LAUDER - gets dry easily but glides smoothly, light coverage, accentuate my dark under eye

SHISHEIDO- I got the darkest shade I thought it didn't much my skin tone but it blend well after 10 minutes. so so to me, smooth and glides easily, didn't cover my blemishes

LANCOME TEINT IDOLE- I think I keep wearing this, I like the coverage, glowy finish, last long to me. I got the shade of Bisque 4W and 6W and blends well on my skin tone. Plus it covers my dark under eye which I didn't notice on the other samples I have

CHANEL VITALUMIERE-  light to medium coverage, glowy finish, so so to me

Now, I won't stop searching until I will find what I'm looking for. I want to try the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk but Nordstrom in my place doesn't carry it, on my day off if I find time I need to drive an hour to go to the other Nordstrom store......

FOR REFERENCE MY MAC SHADE IS 37 TO 40, NORMAL TO DRY, WARM UNDERTONE.

Wish people have the same skin makes life easier and not to go search out in the planet to find a piece of needle...........I will update which foundation I will buy in regular size. I know for sure that I need different foundation in the summer and during the cold weather......
