Foundation for sensitive skin (I think)

[erica_1020]

I never thought I had sensitive skin, but I think I am allergic to spf. I was using a Chanel sample and finally thought I was going to buy but low and behold I have been breaking out the last few days. I loved the color and wear of it. My complexion is MAC NC45/C7 so please any suggestions. Here is what I have tried
Px- Flawless, virtual youth, virtual matte
MAC--All except Face and Body
Chanel--Teint Innocence
Lancome---ALL that had a match
Estee Lauder-Double Wear
Clinique has crappy colors
BE- Bare Minerals ID powder foundation

I need light to medium coverage

I'm allergic to chemical sunblocks, so finding a foundation is difficult. There are mineral sunscreens and chemical sunblocks- most people are ok with the mineral (and it works just as well). I find that mineral makeup doesn't bother my skin at all (Bare Minerals anyway- I had some issues with Everyday Minerals). It's very light to medium coverage too. I know people who've used DHC liquid foundation (dhccare.com) with no problem even though it's got spf, and my derm said it was a good choice for someone with allergies. HTH

i work at The Body Shop and i know alot of my customers that use our foundation are ones that have lots of allergies and super sensitive skin. I guess TBS works for them since we use as little chemicals as possible. maybe you can give that a go?
