I need a new powder to set my foundation I already have the mac studio fix pressed powder and like the coverage but sometimes it make me look cakey :/ I was wondering if the BareMinerals Original Foundation Broad Spectrum will be the same but less cakey? or can someone tell me good product that has good coverage but makes it seem as if your not wear makeup? please help.

You're using MAC studio fix powder plus to set your foundation?

I don't think you should set your liquid foundation with another foundation because BareMinerals makes a great mineral veil! Makes your skin glow (not sparkly)! If you are going to buy any bareMineral products I really recommend buying a brush from their company. Their brushes are cut specifically to pick up their product and let me tell you first hand it makes a huge difference! Their blushes are amazing also!

Try a translucent powder to set your foundation
a good one is crystal by NARS

Okay, MAC studio fix powder is a foundation, not a setting powder, so I see why it would make you look cakey. Try the MAC mineralize skinfinish natural for setting. It's very sheer and gives you a satin finish. If you want full coverage, just choose a full coverage liquid foundation, like studio fix fluid.

I would go with BareMinerals. They do have several options depending if you are oily, combo, etc. I use a liquid foundation with their Matte which is oil absorbing. Their Mineral Veil is also great and they have an illuminating Mineral Veil to and some other choices.
