    I love Loreal "Magic Smooth" or any other good matte concealers...this just happens to be the cheapest matte out at the moment. It's about $25.

    My skin is dry and I wouldn't recommend using a matte concealer if you have oily skin.

    I use Mary Kay Matte foundation ($20) and don't usually need a powder. When I do need a powder I use Mary Kay pressed powder.

    Bare Minerals. I always found my skin very shiny and greasy with other foundation but after this was used on me for my wedding I've been converted!

    I really like the new Revlon Colorstay mousse. It goes on nice and even after getting a little sweaty at work, my face doesn't look ruddy or blotchy. I do use powder, whatever I have. I have a Rimmel Stay Matte and also a Benefit Get Even compact that I will dust with
  • Bare minerals also. I have combo skin, oily t zone and dry cheeks, the bare minerals powder is perfect for me.

    I agree with one of the above posters. Make up for ever HD foundation is amazing! It's great if you want full coverage, without the heavy, caked on feel. For concealer, I use Urban Decay's concealer stick.

    tarte (high end) or revlon colorstay (drugstore)...I use MAC mineralize skinfinish on top of both. i get shiny tzone mostly in the summer but lean more towards dry because I am over 40.

    I've been using Maybelline's Dream Matte Mousse/Powder/Blush for a couple of years now. It's ok. I like the full coverage and the price.

    when I wear makeup, I use Bare Minerals. I could really use a better concealer. I guess I've got to find one.

    Bare Minerals! & when I run out of that, I use anything from Olay as a backup. (:

    I just started maybelline BB cream....I like it, and I use Vichy derma blend for hiding my acne and scars just on my chin area, and whatever powder I have on hand, but really like clinique setting powder, so expensive

    I rarely use foundation but when I do it's either Urban Decay or Lily Lolo mineral foundation. I used to use MAC mineral concealer but now they're testing on animals for China I'll probably try something from Urban Decay.
  • I use bare Minerals as my foundation/concealer. I have acne-prone combination skin. The bare Minerals doesn't make my skin break out and doesn't slide off. I'm also extremely fair, so I've had trouble finding good shade matches, and the fair shade of bare Minerals works perfect for my skin. I also use mineral veil to take shine off throughout the day. Bare Minerals can be pricey. The foundation is usually around $25 and the mineral veil is about $20. Old favorites from before my skin went crazy are: Maybelline Dream Matte mousse and L'Oreal True match foundation.

    L'oreal Visible Lift. My skin is slightly oily. I don't use powder.
