I was looking for a nice natural finish foundation that isn't full coverage, so like sheer buildable to medium. I found these two to have great reviews, but as always I'm looking to beautylish for real reviews as in those who have used it for more than a week lol. What are your thoughts on these? I am combo oily with a medium olive skin tone. Which shades would be right for me as well since I can't really try it in stores :( thank you in advance!

Yes I am sensitive to talc. Do these foundations have it? Lol gosh. I just found out the mufe ultra hd has talc in it :/ I get little bumps all around my have whenever I use things that have talc in them. For example if I use blushes bronzers or highlighters it's even more in those areas.

Thanks Jacqueline I will skip the koh gen do!! I don't even know what to do with my mufe lol. I was wondering why my skin didn't look good at the end of the day when I wore it. Anyway, I'm really interested in the giorgio now! Except that they don't sell them in stores :( I have no clue what shade to try! I'm torn between 5.75 and 6.5 I'm not really sure if the GA foundation cater to olive skin tone? The only other foundation that really matched was mufe 123 and the nars Barcelona (right tone, tiny bit darker but it's wearable ) do you know which shades would be close to my tone?

Lol Jacqueline okay can I just fly myself to you right now! Haha, Sephora sells it online but is nowhere to be found within 100 miles of me. lol! I can always return it in store though. I forgot about my Shinto series. I haven't worn it in a while. Number 2 completely disappears into my skin which means it's my shade and tone. I understand that by saying I'm olive I do give out some sort of green undertone which is why I have the most terrible time finding the right shade. Yellow based looks terrible and peachy tones just looks so off. Whenever I wear mufe 123 though I feel good. Lol. Anyway thank you so much for your detailed answer! I'm excited to try this foundation <333.

Wow! I don't think I'm ever going to mix my own foundation lol! No wonder olive skin tone girls have a hard time finding foundations. It sounds pretty hard to make! Haha! Once again thank you Jacqueline for allllllll of your in depth answers!

I just ended up ordering 5.75 it looked like the safest bet to make as it is also described medium warm I don't do well with neutral tone as the 5.5 is described, it gives me horrible gray face lol!! Anyway thank you all
