Answer:
Name: Bobbi Brown Moisture Rich Foundation SPF 15
Shade: Warm Ivory
Coverage: Sheer-medium, buildable
Price: around $70
Type of Finish: Slightly dewy
Recommended Skin Type: Dry
Whether You Like it? I like how moisturising it is on my very dry skin, and I like the finish, but it's a bit too sheer for me. I have a lot of redness in my face and need something with a bit more coverage. It would be gorgeous for someone with dry skin who just wants a light foundation to give them a nice smooth finish.

LIKE IT: Love it. It made my skin so dewy. I was a bit skeptical because it had bad reveiws on MUA but is really good on my skin. My skin looks glowy
Im thinking about buying the Dermalogica Treatment Foundation. A friend uses it and it looks pretty good. Im not sure what colour I would be though and want to buy it off strawberrynet. I was speaking to the beautician about the colours they had, on the phone and I said I am not exactly tanned but Im not pale either, and she said probably a 2g.
Is there any way I could work out what colour I am without going and buying it from the beautician do you think?

Question: I sweat in summer on my top lip and on brows....
I want to try Revlon colourstay does it sweat off???

Answer:

My Skin Type: Oily
Name: Chanel Double Perfection Creme Poudre
Shade: #10 Limpide
Coverage: Medium
Price: $69
Finish: Matte
Recommended skin type: Oily
Opinion: Didn't like this at all, found it did not "sit right" on my skin, fell into pores, eccentuated fine lines and flakies. Tried with primer, without primer still the same result. Exchanged it for the fluide. Not worth the money at all.
Name: Chanel Double Perfection Fluide
Shade: #10 Limpide
Coverage: Sheer-Medium
Price: $69
Finish: Matte
Recommended skin type: Oily Combo
Opinion: Great foundation which gives a fabulous matte yet luminous finish. buildable coverage. Smells a bit weird at first though. Best to apply a section at a time because it "sets" quite quickly.
Name: Revlon Colourstay Natural
Shade: Nude
Coverage: Medium
Price: $35?
Finish: Dewy
Recommended skin type: Normal
Opinion: Far too yellow toned for my skin. Very hard to remove, no oil control at all, need to blot throughout the day.
Name: Revlon Skin Perfecting Makeup
Shade: Naked or Nude
Coverage: Sheer - Medium
Price: $32
Finish: Satin
Recommended skin type: Oily
Opinion: Contains Salycilic Acid to control blemishes, quite drying for this reason. Gives good finish, goes on nicely, Is good for the price. Oily skinned gals should consider this foundation. Shades a bit too yellow based though.
Name: Face Of Australia Powder Perfect Foundation
Shade: Ivory
Coverage: Sheer - Medium
Price: $12
Finish: Matte/Satin
Recommended skin type: Oily/Combo
Opinion: Absolutely fantastic for the price. It is my every day foundation. The shade is perfect for me, but the limited shades may be a downfall for others. I find it gives a fantastic flawless finish and also contains SPF.
Name: Face of Australia Stick Foundation
Shade: Outback Ivory
Coverage: medium
Price: $12
Finish: Dewy
Recommended skin type: Dry-Normal
Opinion: This foundation is very good for the price, btu not if you have oily skin, it just melts off. I needed copious amouts of silk dust to keep this one on. It just doesn't set on my oily skin.

Is there any way I could work out what colour I am without going and buying it from the beautician do you think? I bought it off SN and I did a google search and found some colour charts on other sites that did sell them b/c SN does not really show the colour properly. I read up on the colours and I thing the g is for more yellowy skin tones. I really took a risk b/c I didn't see the colour but it turned out too match my skin perfectly. I got 3g and my skin tone is tanned but am not too dark but with yellow tones. I choose that one b/c Dermalogica also make a toner too blend with the foundation so if it too light you can buy one too darken it and one to lighten the colour if it is dark. I hope that helps if you have any other questions just PM me. Good luck

Answer:
name: stila illuminating liquid foundation 10 watts
coverage: medium (on me at least!)
price: $88...pfft as if I would pay that... $35 US that's better
type of finish: dewy
recommended skin type: all I think?
n whether u like it?: yep, my HG foundation, especially when I team it with my IPF. since I'm so pale and have auburn hair I've always found it hard to find a foundation that's not too dark, orangey or amette, and this is fabulous!
name: stila illuminating powder foundation 10 watts
coverage: medium on me
price: $55 for refills here I think, or $23US
