I've been using Fit Me by Maybelline for months, and i've loved and still do just not as much. My skins starting to get dry around my eye brows/fore head and occasionally gets greasy near my chin, I'm looking for a FULL coverage drug store product? Any suggestions?!

Alsooo, any powder suggestions? again full coverage please :)

I would suggest trying Revlon Colorstay. I was a big fan of the Photoready and still am, but I got the Colorstay since its a crowd favorite, and now its my favorite as well. It gives great full coverage and doesn't feel too heavy. It stays put all day as well if you set it with some powder. It really helps to tone down my freckles and makes me feel more flawless. I have it on in my current user pic if you want an idea of the coverage.

For months, I've been wanting to try Revlon Colorstay, but I kept ignoring that little voice of mine. This weekend, I finally decided why not, since it is cheap. And I'm so glad I did. I wore it to work on Monday and on, and every day I've been getting compliments that I look different in a nice way.

I have very oily skin, and I hated how my foundation (all that I've tried so far) has transferred onto my blotting sheet, tissue, etc. So I picked up the foundation for Oily/Combination skin... and my gosh, this stuff is great! It stays put, and it feels like second skin.

I tried the photo-ready, but I didn't like the shimmer in it. It just doesn't go well with oily skin.

Just a word of advice, the Oily/Combo formula sets really quick, so you should do your foundation in sections (right cheek, left cheek, etc.) However, I use a damp sponge (just any triangle sponge from the drugstores) and it gives me enough time to apply the foundation (to layer it even), before it really sets.

Another co-sign on Revlon ColorStay. It's a great drugstore foundation and the coverage is fabulous. I imagine any powder would do, even something sheer or translucent since the liquid is easily buildable to full coverage.
