Foundation
14 Answers
I'm wanting to change my foundation and would like to know if someone can advise me. At the moment I'm using Estee Lauder Double Wear which is good as it lasts all day but it doesn't really brighten my face up if you know what I mean. I'm quite pale and always wear blusher but would like something to wake up my face.

Just use this under your foundation, it works wonders. :)

The new Healthy Mix Serum foundation from Bourjois is supposed to be amazing at brightening up your complexion. It is only really suitable for people with normal/dry skin since it is a serum, hence why I haven't been able to try it :( Here's a link... http://www.bourjois.c..._mix_serum_foundation
They do have just a normal foundation version of it which may be better if your skin is a tad on the oily side.

I use Double Wear, too. It's great... but it's also quite thick and so it can look a bit dull.
They do a double wear light, which my sister has just bought. It's almost like a tinted moisturiser, but still gives the coverage of a foundation.
I don't think Estee Lauder foundations are the best for looking "dewy".
I sometimes use MAC, but again these can be quite thick.
When I've changed my foundation in the past, I've often found the cheaper makes (compared to Estee Lauder) to be a lot less "cakey" and therefore more fresh looking.
I recently used one by 'Soap and Glory', called 'Good Face' (?) and it was really light and fresh, and also had a built-in primer. You can get that from Boots, too.
