Foundation reviews/pros and cons.

Rimmel Stay Matte: PROS- it has great coverage and blends beautifully. I find that it blends better with a stippling brush/flat top kabuki rather than with a beauty blender. CONS- It slides off you're face sometimes pretty easy. Not a big color selection. If you use to much it can be very cakey. OVERALL REVIEW- I really like it, it works for me. It seems to work better when you by the primer that goes with it, but even with out it I feel it's awesome. I am on my second tube of it so yes I feel it is a good repurchase.
Tarte Amazonian Clay Full Coverage Airbrush Foundation: PROS- Omg where to begin lol. Light-full coverage, build able, bendable, stays on, color range is amazing. CONS- I'm honestly not sure if I have any major cons for this one, you do need to buy the brush separate and that's between $25-$30 (I can't remember lol) and that part sucks but I really love this foundation. It seems to be my new favorite right now, I got it back in May for my birthday and I love it lol. It is a powder so I don't recommend it if you have dry skin, but with my oily acne prone face I like it. OVERALL- The idea of a powder foundation kind put me off but it still enticed me. The more research I did the more I needed to have it, I'm glad I purchased it. I must say I was pleasantly surprised!
Cover girl Stay luminous: PROS- Sadly I have none CONS - Made me super shiny, color selection sucked, and it basically say on top of my skin so I'm calling it cakey. I wanted to like it I really did but it didn't want to like me back. It now just sits in my makeup case and every time I look at it I think I should try it again but I tried it for an entire week and it didn't work for me, at all.
I hope this helps, if anyone has questions feel free to ask, I'll help the beat I can :)

For the tarte is it good for sensitive skin in terms of being acne prone? Been eyeballing this for a while.

I'm honestly not sure at the moment but I can check for you if you'd like.

There are some reviews on Ulta that say they have sensitive skin and that it was ok, I say try it and if it doesn't work then you can return it. however it is a lot of money, sorry if this isn't helpful.

Nono was helpful! I just break out a lot and my current foundation is clogging all my pores so I was looking at this since it has a nice buildable coverage from light-full.

I have sensitive acne prone skin and none of the tarte products have ever given me problems.

Thanks Mia! Do you think the amazonian clay one would work for combination skin too? Maybe over a drugstore bb cream?

It might, sometimes I get dry spots and I just make sure to moisturize better in those particular spots.
