Benefit Playstick

A great foundation!! This cream stick offers full coverage without being masklike or greasy. It covers blemishes incredibly well. So well, in fact, that upon removing my makeup at night, I am shocked at what is underneath it. It comes in a good range of tones, too!

Bare Escentuals bareMinerals Foundation

Okay, I was pretty skeptical of the mineral craze, so it took me a long time to try it. But, it's actually pretty good! It feels lightweight and does cover up all the nasties-redness, acne; yet still looks natural. There is a bit of a learning curve, tough. Use too much and it will get cakey. I highly recommend getting the starter kit and watching the DVD first.

Retail: Foundation only, $25; kit, $60

Neutrogena Healthy Skin Liquid Makeup

This foundation is a staple of my makeup kit. I've used it on film sets, photo shoots, theatre gigs, and myself. It has the rare ability of both providing good coverage and looking natural. Not only that, it is oil-free, but never looks dry, and has an SPF of 20. It even comes in a good variety of shades!

Retail: $7.99-$10.99 On Sale!
