I'm so cheap when it comes to foundation. I swear by Revlon ColorStay for combination/oily skin.

I use MAC foundation. Studio fix powder is perfect for photos since it gives this flawless looking skin but it's too "flawless" for everyday use because it can look fake if you put too much.I prefer MAC's Body and face foundation for everyday.

Musq is quite a nice foundation. Comes in a powder form and a cream. But I think it's only Australian... They might ship overseas! But then you won't be able to see if it's the right colour, and it is quite expensive. I used to use Shesheido, it was amazing, but I got acne and couldn't use it anymore because it kept going funny... Great for someone who lives in a cold climate!

Maybelline 'fit me,' which I really like the light coverage of, but I find goes oily after about an hour, unless I powder lots. Which defeats the purpose of light coverage.

Honestly Revlon Colorstay iv heard is the BEST drug store foundation and i must admit its really good with coverage and has great staying power. It dries matte and it comes in 2 different formulas for everyone's skin. Revlon Photoready has sparkles. If i had to pick high end it would be mac pro longwear foundation.

i just got some Smashbox primer, concealer and foundation and I love it!! but it's kinda pricey. I don't usually like to spend a lot on makeup. But I also use Maybelline's mousse souffle foundation, or whatever it's called and I love that for most days. It goes on silky smooth like powder and it's really lightweight but covers well. I also like MAC's foundations and concealers too :)

I use BB cream by etude house. The texture is lighter than foundation, but works almost like any other foundation, with better result.

I used to use Revlon Colorstay and it was awesome, it has great coverage and really stays put on your face. The only thing I didn't like about it was that it was so hard to scrub off. I stopped using it because it was irritating my (sensitive, acne prone) skin, now I use Rimmel 25 Hour Lasting Color and I like it a lot. I would recommend one of those two!

I use Bourjois foundation.
I've used various others in the past but I find Bourjois to have a good level of moisturising and stay on rather well.
My current one is 'Healthy Mix Serum' {my favourite yet} in Light Vanilla. I have such dry skin on my face at times, so I need one that goes on soft and smooth.
I see Revlon Colorstay has had a lot of recommendations - I may have to try that next!

I use Clarins Everlasting Foundation. It's heavy coverage hides your blemishes and open pores, but doesn't clog your skin or look too thick, so your skin looks pure and healthy, not like you've been caked with make up! It's a bit pricier then I'd like to pay for makeup (£25 a bottle) but it's really worth it, I wouldn't go back now!

Mac I would say is the best, the only makeup that i can wear that doesn't irritate my skin , its a little pricey but its worth it as it lasts a long time. and they do like practically every colour !

CoverGirl Clean Liquid Foundation for Oily Skin in ivory, I think. It does it job, it keeps me matte looking, it doesn't cake up my skin, and gives me a flawless complexion.

I don't wear foundation but i do use tinted moisturiser which i got in a sale for about £1/£2 it's normally around £7 or £8. It's by skin wisdom.
I have heard that
Collection 2000 "LASTING PERFECTION FOUNDATION" in vanilla is good and is about £4 so i might try that out myself.

I use Diorskin Forever Flawless on occasion, but my everyday foundation is makeup forever! This summer I'll probably be switching to a tinted moisturizer though. I hate heavy makeup in hot weather!

I've wasted so much money on high end foundations and never been satisfied. My LUSH colour supplement is so cheap, cheaper than drugstore, and soooo perfect. I love it :)

I used to use NARS in siberia, which before I managed to get some colour was the only tone light enough to match my dead person complexion, but now I'm a little darker and wear less makeup so I just go with cheap drugstore 'match perfection' in 010 which works well with my current tone.
and is a quarter of the price at least.

I use clinique's Perfectly Real Makeup in 01. it's a really nice and natural formula that's very light and looks amazing in photos. it's around 25 dollars, but it's definitely worth it.

It's cheap, about $9, works all day, and has tons and tons of shades to choose from, for a drugstore brand.
