Drugstore foundation: do I have any problems with my skin or how hard to find a good foundation.


I'm this kind of girl who won't spend a tone of money on make up. But anyway, I like make up. So today I'd like to tell you about a foundation problem. I was trying to find a good new foundation for about 3 years, I guess. The first foundation I've ever tried was Maybelline Affinitone and it was great. Then I bought another pack of the same foundation, but it wasn't good. I decided to find smth new. Here're my last attempts(which I don't know why decided to save):

1. Maxfactor Smooth Effect in shade #55 Buff Beige
2. L'Oreal Alliance Perfect in shade #R3-C3 Rose Beige
3. Rimmel Stay Matte in shade #100 Ivory
4. Garnier BB Cream in shade "Light"
5. Maybelline BB Cream in shade "Light"

1. Maxfactor's foundation is old(I bought it without checking the date), so it's dry, looks and feels terrible on my skin, although the shade is pretty good for my complection. Unfortunately, no.

2. L'oreal's foundation is the best that I have right now. I heard about it on youtube and the girl said that it's pretty close to Bobbi Brown's one, so I went straight to the shop and bought it. I don't know if it's really close to Boobi Brown's one, but it works for me very well. Definitely yes.

3. Rimmel's foundation was good for some time, but then I didn't use any foundation for a month and when I tried this one on my face it looked aweful. I don't know what's happened to my skin, but it became dry, I had even some redness after applying it. After that I haven't use any of Rimmel's products for some time, but now I like this brand. But for foundations, no.

4-5. I definitely don't understand people who love BB creams. Or I have a weird type of skin that doesn't like such things, but I don't see any difference between when I apply BB creams and when I have nothing on my face. I tried these two several times, thinking that something can change, but no. It doesn't work for me. No.

I hope it can be useful for someone. Also, I'm always open for any suggestions :)
Have a good day :)
