What can I replace my liquid foundation with?
I've always used liquid foundation whenever applying make-up on. I usually use Lancome or the Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse (I like the Maybelline one better).
I like how the foundation looks when I first put it on my face, but as the day goes on, it starts to run and it doesn't look ';finished'; like it did when I first put it on.
Is there any other type of make-up that won't become ';runny'; but will still look the same as liquid foundation when applied?What can I replace my liquid foundation with?
DId you try priming? like eyeshadows, you want to prime your face so that the foundation has something to hold onto, and it gives your face a better finish.
A really good and affordable face primer is the Victorias Secret VS PRO FX face primer- it's about 16 dollars and can be found at any victorias secret that sells beauty products:

You should apply the primer, then the foundation, then set it with a powder (powder foundation or a fininsihing powder will do), and it should stay all day- remember to touch up the powder every now and then if you have oily skin.
Also, you should maybe try another foundation if it isn't working out for you- I don't really LOVE the lancome foundation because of it feels really heavy, but i would recommend Laura Mercier, Smashbox, or Cargo- they're lighter, cover well and stay on for a good amount of time.
good luck!What can I replace my liquid foundation with?
if you like the foundation but not the 'after look' wouldnt a face finish or putting powder on afterwards help? my friend uses MAC finish and swears by it. Do some research online.
try priming your face. try a tinted moistureizer. try mac fix plus

10pts, What powder do you recommend to go over the top of liquid foundation?
I'm going shopping tomorrow for powder to go over the top of my liquid foundation (to make the liquid foundation set).
What do you recommend, and why?
PS: i live in Australia, so no foreign brands that aren't available here please :P10pts, What powder do you recommend to go over the top of liquid foundation?
HD Microfinish Powder.
A universal translucent finishing powder to be applied over foundation or worn alone.
What it does:
Sets the foundation and slightly mattifies skin without changing its natural contours. This 100% mineral silica powder softens the appearance of imperfections. Completely evens out the complexion for a glowing, radiant look. One universal shade for all skin tones.
What else you need to know:
It's completely translucent and goes on any skintone. Its talc-free formula does not dry the skin and is formulated with 100% silica. Dermatologically tested.
Hope that helped.
Good Luck.10pts, What powder do you recommend to go over the top of liquid foundation?
I've always used benefit powder over my liquid foundation as not only can it go straight on top of the foundation without having to let it dry but they have a variety of shades for everyone and it lasts forever!!! if you cant get it in Australia its avaliable on ebay :)
I use liquid foundation then Rimmel powder. I live in the UK so not sure if you get Rimmel in Australia!
The best powder to use is a loose powder that matches your natural skin tone, or a translucent one. Apply it with a large brush, and if you need to top up during the day you can buy the matching pressed powder in a compact.
I love Rimmel Foundation, but I have used Cover Girl Powder over any foundation that I have liked for so many years now. It will hold the foundation in place perfectly and reduce shine.
I definatly recommend Cover Girl Powder.
Is Neutrogena available in Australia? If so I recommend Neutrogena's SkinClearing Pressed powder. Otherwise, I recommend Maybelline's products.
i use liquid foundation and i use mabeline dream matte mouse foundation and then i use mabeline newyork powder
that always works for me (:
not shure wherever they do them brands there, but hope i helped (:
I use Revlon foundation n powder..from Aussie too lol! For over your foudnation, go with something VERT translucent...something that has almost no color, jst helps to set the foundation.
I personally really like Bare Minerals. I don't use foundation though, I just put face cream and then powder over it. Slightly healthier for the skin.
i use clinique foundation and powder... it's not to heavy especially since i have acne prone skin
bare minerals

How do you put on liquid foundation properly?
how, i ask.. HOW?! lol
and do you need to put a powder ontop afterwards?How do you put on liquid foundation properly?
Get your sponge and dip it into water,put just a little bit on the tip of the sponge,then just dab it where yuu want too put it,then just rub inHow do you put on liquid foundation properly?
Heres what I do. Take a triangular or circular sponge and dampen it. Then depending on what liquid foundation your using apply some to the sponge and then put dots all around your face. Usually one on the forehead, nose, cheeks, and chin area. Then just start smoothing it out with the sponge making sure to blend into your jawline and hair line. Also to eliminate redness in some areas just take the sponge and dab it onto the areas applying slight pressure on your skin, it helps with the redness.. Hope this helps.
Put some of the liquid on your finger and spot it around on your face. Then blend them in. Make sure you don't see any streaks. You don't need to put a powder over the top, but sometimes the liquid stuff can make your face shiny, and the powder removes that.
If you can see where the make up line ends (like around your jaw line) you need to get a different shade of foundation.
lol. well the smartest way to put liquid foundation on is to get a foundation brush.. like the one below..

put a little foundation on the brush and sweep it across your face.. its kinda like painting lol. make sure you blend it in with your neck... and after your have it evenly blended [make sure you blend blend blend so it doesnt look cakey] and then get a big kabuki brush and dab that into a loose powder... then sweep that across your face and finish it off with a little bit of blush [sweep up from checkbones to temples] and your done!
hope that helped lol.
First put foundation on your nose, forehead, chin and cheeks.
With your chin spread it over your jaw line.
With your cheeks spread it over to the corner of your eyes.
With you forehead spread it over to your eye brows and cheeks.
With your nose spread it down to your cheeks.
Clean it up and fill in the places you haven't.
Hope this helps =]
Use a damp sponge wedge and apply in a circular motion. To put powder on top, lightly dab a big fluffy brush in the powder, and also apply in a circular motion.
I use a MAC 187 stippling brush. It creates a flawless airbrushed look. Sponges are good but I find they soak up a lot of the product. I do set my foundation with MAC's Invisable set powder.

What foundation brush do you recommend using for a liquid foundation?
I've always read that you shouldn't use your fingertips to apply foundation...but you know what? I have tried it all, and fingers are the way to go...if you really want your foundation to blend and look natural, then start with clean hands, and really work the foundation into your skin, almost like massaging it in. You can always apply a second coat if you need too, but there is nothing worse than seeing streaks of foundation on someone's face that either used a sponge or a brush.What foundation brush do you recommend using for a liquid foundation?
sponges work best

How old should you be to wear liquid foundation?
im 15, going to be 16 at the end of october. im going to be a sophmore in high school, and i was just wondering cuz im not sure if i should wear liquid or stick with powder??
=]How old should you be to wear liquid foundation?
I'm 50ish, stick with the powder, the liquid just clogs up your pores. eeewwwweeeee.How old should you be to wear liquid foundation?
i've been wearing liquid foundation since i was 11 because i did competitive cheerleading and it was required. i suggest sticking to the powder. liquid foundation is just a mess. it requires a lot of practice to make it look natural, clogs your pores, and is a hassle to put on.
I've started using liquid foundation when I was 13 cause I have acne and the liquid one gives me more coverage. I'm using liquid foundation daily for 7years now and it's ok. Use the one you find more convenient to use. If I didn't have acne I probably won't use any:-)
Stick with powder. You shouldn't use liquid. It clogs pores, It can cause acne and breakouts, And powder looks more Natural. It allows you skin to breath more too.

Well I think that you are old enough, but you should stick with powder as it is more natural and better for your skin :D
