Second that! Plus you can stretch your foundation that way. I really like Studio Fix Fluid with The Body Shop's Vitamin E Cream. It's amazing in the winter time over the top of some prep and prime skin. Then Blot powder for the mid day t-zone shiny's!!

i just mix a bit of my moisturizer (or sometimes my strobe cream), my prep+prime spf 50 with my liquid foundation on the days i want minimal coverage.

I've tried so many over the last few years and just keep coming back to mixing foundation with my moisturizer -- more moisturizer makes it sheerer and more foundation makes it more opaque. The ability to control what you're putting on from day to day is really nice for me. The only two that I purchased outright from the stores that I would consider purchasing again were Aveda's and Stila's.

I tend to also break out and I use Laura Mercier oil free tinted moisturizer. I love how light it feels. I have also had good luck with Shu Uemura UV Under Base, which is techinically a makeup base with sunscreen, but it is tinted and provides a sheer light coverage. Hope that helps.

mix a drop of foundation with your moisturiser! and put the money u save to buy some other makeup stuff

I just got it last wk and love it. it gives a dewy look too, I think there are tiny pearly particles in it.

i use marcelle cream beige when i want a simple day-to-day look, and marcelle luminous beige when i want a glamorous glow (which can be a day-to-day thing, too).

i haven't tried any others yet...
is there anything out there that is fairly non-oily yet moisturizes well enough?
