Have you tried Maybelline Dream Mousse, I bought it on a whim and although I usually where Chanel, I do quite like it! Very MSE

Is it the one that's been around for ages? I remember trying one last year or the year before and it didn't suit my skin at all i'm afraid. That is very MSE of you! Well done! It is quite difficult to downsize foundations isn't it? :T

Hi,

Have you tried L'Oreal Matte Morphose? Its a mousse and gives great coverage but feels really light on - I hate liquid foundation that feels wet and heavy on your skin and this is not at all like that. Its around a tenner and you only need a bit so it lasts quite a while even though its a small pot - I use mine pretty much every day and get a good couple of months out of it. Hope that helps!

thanks Ems. I'm really not sure about mousse. I tried a maybelline one ages ago and it really didnt suit. Any idea where I could get a sample?

I'm not sure I could ever completly give up my beloved Chanel but I don't mind the Maybelline one sometimes :A

Have you been for a consultation at one of the big cosmetic counters? They'd be able to talk you through what's available.....

Another option if you don't like foundation would be a BB cream, I'm waiting for one of the Korean ones to arrive, apparently they're completly different to the western ones we get here

Even giving it up a little would help though I'm sure!

I'm wayyy too embarrassed to approach anyone in a store! Maybe they would let me take a free sample home..hmmm..;)

What's BB?

There's generally no need to approach anyone, if you're looking at the counter, help is generally offered

BB Creams are all over the high street now, they are supposed to be foundation, primer, moisturizer and SPF in one. The high street ones don't seem to be for me, and I understand that the Eastern BB creams are very different to the Western ones, hence me ordering one from Korea
