Foundation help! Can anyone recommend a really good powder foundation?

[Allnatural]

I need something that is easy to get hold of, will keep oily skin matte, has yellow undertones and will not give a white cast in photos.... Does this product exist?

 

[DirtyPlum]

Yes, MAC Studio Fix is amazing and will tick all your boxes

I recommend La Prairie's Powder Foundation, it's the only foundation that hasn't broken me out, it's dual, so you can use it wet or dry and coverage ranges from sheer to full coverage. It's pricey, but if you have acne-prone skin, it's worth the no break-outs. If you have sensitive skin, you should stay away from Studio Fix in my opinion and also, the few times I was photographed wearing it, the flash was reflected by the foundation on my face. ^^;

have you tried a mineral foundation?

you have to take care to avoid those with talc and bismuth, but you might find what you're looking for there.

I agree with DirtyPlumStudio Fix

*bump* Summer is here and my face is melting! I'm looking for a powder foundation with the exact same qualities the OP wanted (like she said, if it exists lol). Any more suggestions would really be appreciated

In the summer you can actually use concealer for your prob. spots & use MAC blot powder & really buff it in. I use a stippiling brush. You still get that airbrush look from a powder & looks like your not wearing anything.

I really don't like to wear foundation in the summer. I use the concealer & powder. Contour w/ #43, then I use blush baby or prism & over that lightly I may use pink swoon or a MSF. It gives you than nice sun kiss glow.
Hope this helps... Good Luck

If you have a sephora nearby try Make Up Forever's Duo Mat or Stila Illuminating Powder (LOVE!). I find studio fix gives off that white cast b/c of the spf/titanium dioxide.

I'm NC35 with strong yellow undertones and the best I have used is Laura Mercier's powder foundation. The one and only negative factor is the small quantity of product you receive for the extremely high price.

Next in line is Stila Illuminating Powder foundation which is more economical.

Givenchy's Prisme foundation is great for yellow toned and oily skin girls.. lasts all day too!

Sephora: Givenchy Prisme Foundation: Powder Foundation

Laura Mercier Mineral Powder Foundation. Best mineral foundation out there.
And I have to disgaree with Laura Mercier's products not having enough product for the price. It is definitely expensive, but her foundations last me several months. I guess it just depends on how you use it and how much you use.
