have you tried any of the mineral foundations? (BE, Meow, EM..etc.) they come in a powder form and are really good for sensitive and break-out prone skin.

you might try Shu Umera's powder foundation, MUFE's wet/dry foundation, or graftobian's wet/dry foundation. All are excellent powder foundations that tend to be a bit less harsh on the skin.

Have you tried diorskin compact foundation? Their stuff never breaks my fuzzy skin out and it also has good coverage

I agree with this totally! I have oily skin & this helps a lot with the oil. Also, you can build the coverage with this & it looks so natural.

i really liked the chanel double perfection compact. it has a powder foundation, and a sponge, in a rectangular, mirrored black plastic compact. it was rather pricey, as i remember, but it had an spf 10, covered well, and went on especially nice with a foundation brush, and a buffer brush.plus, it didn't feel super-heavy like some powders do.

Clinique has a powder compact that also has more coverage, like the MAC Studio Fix. I also second the suggestion for mineral foundation, although not in compact form. I use Alima.

I don't have the Mac one to compare, but I love Stila IPF

That's what I use. I love it. It works sheer, can be built up for more coverage, can be used with a wet brush, fits in my purse, is in the gorgeous case. I can get refills for the compact too so it cuts the price down slightly, but on the whole it is expensive. Mine was £38 (roughly $60 USD)

I love MUFE's Duo Mat - in my eyes, it's very similar to Studio Fix in coverage. It wears really well throughout the day, doesn't change colour and covers greatly.
