UGH I tried ANOTHER well-known 'longwear' foundation, and it was a waste of $$$. Please help if you know of one that really might work 4 me PLEASE
Hopefully someone in here might be able to help...
I’m looking for a foundation that checks as many boxes as possible because the new Double Wear formula is awful on me. The old Double Wear wasn’t perfect, but it was tolerable - and everything I’ve tried since has been as bad or worse. Dior didn’t work for me either and I was all excited about Nars, bought it, & tonight about 2 hours later I glanced in a mirror - Embarrassed.
I Need a longwear, sweat‑proof, non‑oxidizing foundation to replace old Double Wear (1C1 Cool Bone)
Here’s what I need:
- MUST be longwear!!!!!!!!!
- MUST be sweat‑resistant (preferably sweat‑proof)
- Cannot settle into lines/wrinkles - the more it blurs/hides, the better
- Cannot oxidize or turn orange
- Preferably low or no SPF (I think SPF breaks me out)
- Cannot make pores look bigger
- Full coverage or very close - I want freckles, blemishes, and lines as hidden as possible
- Preferably makes me look LESS old, not more
For reference, in Double Wear I wore 1C1 Cool Bone, but as I said, I didnt think it was as perfect as most everyone else does unfortuneately.
I know I'm asking for alot from a foundation but I see alot of older people who look beautiful & younger with makeup, so I want to be that lucky too. If anyone has found a great foundation that fits these requirements, please help me out.... Part of me is starting to want to avoid being seen BUT.... I volunteer at a well-loved nonprofit where everyone knows me each week, so I cant. lol
FYI- I'm 46 but act 30s, do alot of manual labor like unloading a box truck, Ive got red/copper blonde hair, and I guess combination skin I guess - I have lines/wrinkles (dry skin) & I noticed today how dry/almost flaky my face looks, yet sometimes randomly breakout, if that helps.
