Best makeup for my skin type. Help.?

OK, I am a Latin and White female. I have combination skin sometimes dry sometimes oily. My skin is very sensitive and i have breakouts every now and then. I also have Hirstisum. ( male pattern facial hair) but it's all gone with laser(thank god !!) however it leaves my skin a in a state of distress. i don't want to wear heavy makeup i want something light and fresh. Ive gone to Macy's and sephora sooooo many times and they put on so much make-up i look like a drag-queen. yuck. i need some pointers from u fabulous people people out there.... thanx
Best makeup for my skin type. Help.?
Foundation:


Instead of foundation, try using something light like a tinted moisturizer or light makeup. Here are some good ones:





Neutrogena Healthy Skin Enhancer SPF 20 ($10.99)


Revlon Age Defying Light Makeup SPF 30 ($12.99)


Maybelline Pure Makeup ($ 5.99)





There are more expensive options available in department stores like Sephora:


Stila Sheer Color Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15 ($30)


DuWop Revolotion Face ($29)


However, the cheaper drugstore options work just as well.








Blush:


Maybelline Dream Mousse Blush ($6.99)


This blush is exceptionally light and has a very nice texture to it. You can also use:


L'oreal Paris Bare Naturale Gentle Mineral Blush ($14.49)


It's wonderful for a glowy kind of look.








Lip Gloss:


Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss ($6.99)


It's very glossy without much stickyness, or from Sephora:


Tarte Inside Out Vitamin Lip Gloss ($21)





Mascara:


If you have naturally nice, thick lashes, you can skip this altogether, but otherwise, a little mascara goes a long way!


I've heard good things about Prescriptives False Eyelash Mascara which is a bit expensive, but my personal favourite is


L'oreal HIP High Drama Volumizing Mascara (under $10)








This routine is very nice and natural for every-day wear, but you can add some neutral or shimmery eyeshadow from Revlon or Clinique to change your look.





Make sure you cleanse your face morning and night (very important especially for acne-prone skin). Since you have sensitive skin, try Neutrogena Extra Gentle Cleanser.





Hope I helped!

try bare minerals, it's very light and really works to even out your skin and reduce the look of redness caused by acne. if you get them to do it at sephora they go WAY overboard, but if you practice on your own you can get it down to looking very natural!
Reply:ok...i too have a mixture of dry and oily skin and i think i would die, if Prescriptives never existed. This is a cosmetic company and they're located in Macy's, their make-up is really light and natural looking. Go there and have them to try it on you and i'm sure you'll like it....





Let me know how it goes, if you try Prescriptives, and another good thing is that they custom blend make-up.
Reply:Try Covergirl's Clean Makeup, Oil Control


Non-drying formula helps control oily shine and won't clog pores. Hope I helped! ~鈾igorousVirgo1995鈾?br>Reply:well i want i would do is get a moisterizer what it will do is add a little color to your face but it doesn't coverup anything i would use it as a base its from burts bees. the get a foundation but not one that is really heavy i recomened the kind by maybelline then touch up in areas that have blemishes or breakouts get a blush that will match your skin tone put it on very lightly (for the color you mentioned your skin i would say a peach or like an orangy not orange but brownish orangish. put on some lipgloss (clear) and mascara and black eyeliner and thats all you need. i hope this works for you.
