smashbox is my FAV foundation. it is $38 dollars and well worth every penny. it is an ';hd'; formula that reflects light and makes your flaws disappear. i have horrible skin and yet when i wear it people actually comment on how good my face looks and then say - you don't wear make up, do you???
having said that, i do like the neutrogena soy based foundation. i used that for quite awhile before moving up to smashbox.
in addition, go to sephora and they will recommend something for you in your price range and you can test out many kinds and find the perfect one for you. if you are not ready to buy, ask for a sample to take home with you, and they will make a little jar up for you. that way you can test it and see if it works for your skin.
one last thing - light reflecting foundations are popping up at the drug store. try checking one of those out.Brilliant drugstore liquid foundation and other makeup?
As far as drug store products, try looking into the newer types of makeup like Mineral Makeup...i think covergirl and maybelline all came out with thier own versions. You have to use a specific brush for these types of make up, but honestly they are the very best at natural coverage, no cakey feel, and they actually improve your skin and make it glow, and it stays all day no touch ups.
If you have large pores you shouldn't use a liquid foundation unless it has a matte finish. You are so young, can't you just use powder ? If not I would try a powdered foundation. I prefer L'oreal myself. I did see one on TV the other day that they poured over a golf ball and it didn't settle in to the holes, so maybe you could find out what that is and try it if you do prefer liquid.
I recently picked up a bottle of Almay's Nearly Naked foundation and I really liked it. I'm actually surprised that I like it so much. It's not a ton of coverage but it's lightweight and leaves your skin with a beautiful dewy finish. It's fantastic!
Not really sure what I would recommend to you. There are so many products out there so what I end up doing is starting with the less expensive and trying out a few different ones.This is a good review website at http://www.brandsmakeup.com visit and browse the reviews.
In my opinion maybelline is the best drug store make up but if you can dish out an extra 5 dollars why not buy clinque or another department store brand. They are better quality and last longer because you only need a little bit to do the job.
Not sure about foundation, but DEFINITELY try Cover Girl Lash Blast mascara....its in a fat orange tube and it has a rubber brush! Everyone thinks I wear false lashes because of how amazingly long my lashes look with this mascara on. All of my friends use it now!
Try Mary Kay products, you will love them plus you get free shipping and free gift with purchase
