Which department stores carry such a thing?Where can I find a full make-up set which includes eye, blush, and foundation?
Go to Sam's...right now Victoria secret is in there with their makeup...you get foundation, blush, lipsticks eye liner, shadows etc...everything you need! it is awesome. I got one for each of my daughters in law and one for me...we all LOVE THEM!Where can I find a full make-up set which includes eye, blush, and foundation?
For something good, and good for the price as well, go to ULTA-- it's a makeup store, and they have sales on makeup kits all the time, especially on holidays. Their stuff is high quality, and gives you lip stick, gloss, a lip liner, an eye liner, many different shades of eye shadow, blush, and so on. The only thing that it doesn't have is foundation. But It's a makeup store, so you could always just pick up something up.
Hope this helps and good luck!
Are we talking good quality make up that suits you?
I think it depends which country you are in right now. If you can add some more information I might be able to assist you ^ ^
Update: Thanks for the additional info... Foundation should match your skin. In cheaper packs I don't rate that liquid mess that they usually put in those things and the ingredients of some packs are questionable.
I personally LOOOOOVE Bare Escentuals (Bare Minerals)... Fantastic coverage, minerals which you can sleep in and easy to apply...
I think everyone has summed up places to go in the USA. It depends on how much you are willing to spend also.
Good Luck :)
I know for sure a Shoppers Drug Mart carries that,
or a Walmart,
Full make up sets at these stores won't be very good quality but will work :)
Everywhere! Target, Wal Mart, Kohl's, etc. Wal Mart, definitely.
i dont think you can, and if you do it isent good quality.
Debenhams
Walmart! i see them there all the time!
lots of place like in boot

UK answers please - which make up brands do a really pale foundation?
I'm a redhead and my skin is really pale, almost white (think Nicola from Girls Aloud) and even the palest foundations I can find tend to look a bit yellowy on me. I don't want to pay out to get one custom made, I'd really prefer to pay under a tenner, any suggestions?UK answers please - which make up brands do a really pale foundation?
I feel you pain, I have the same problem:
What I am using now:
MAC body and face in White (yes I mean white) %26amp; one or two drops of N1 (you need a MAC Pro store to get your hands on the white foundation)
Alternatives are:
There is a makeup by NARS, the shade is called Siberia,
I would definitely try this one if you cannot a PRO store closeby.
Or:
Armani uses figures for their shades, so for that brand, try No 2.
Or
Prescriptives does custom made blends.
I have not tried it myself but they just mix the colour that you want.
As previously said, the more expensive brands do lighter shades. So what I do is I go to Selfridges or Marks %26amp; Spencer and go to a couple of makeup counters and ask them to show me their lightest colour.
But remember: don't just go by shade, I had this issue for a couple of times:
The shade was pretty good but the makeup itself did not work for me. SO always have it applied before you buy!
Hope this helps
UK answers please - which make up brands do a really pale foundation?
Nicola Roberts has a make up range called Dainty Doll which has a wite foundation you can add to your normal one to make it paler. You could also try Revlon Colourstay.
I have this problem as well and find that more expensive brands such as Bobbi Brown %26amp; MAC have a much wider variety of pale shades.
mac are amazing i am sooo pale and i got a perfect colour, they sit down with you and try different ones, but there bout 拢20.
I know Nicola from Girls Aloud made her own brand especially for girls with pale skin,, It is called Dainty Doll :)

I have the same problem, plus a lot of goundations out there make me break out. What I'm using now and think I'm going to stick with is Almay. The yellow bottles are the ones for our type of skin. It doesn't stay on all day, but if you put powder over top, then it locks it on almost. That goes with almost any foundation. I also use the toner and that helps with the oil as well.Which foundation or make up should i use as i have very oily skin,, and sweat a lot on the face..pls help?????
be free and feel free like me!.
I stopped wearing foundation,partly 'cause of oily skin and partly cause i thought it actually made me look older!!
i can usally tell when people wear foundation, and now I actually like the natural look best.!!!
I have the same problem as you - oily skin, sweaty face, etc. I am 28 and have tried everything to come down the line since I was in middle school. The stand alone product that has worked for me is the i.d. bareMinerals foundation. It covers nicely (almost like a liquid, but without the weight) and really helps facial perspiration. Almay, Covergirl, etc. foundation - even if advertised for oily skin - just melts away. If you want to wear those brands, my other suggestion would be to invest in Dr.Feelgood by Benefits. It is a face balm and it really works to not only reduce the sweating but also to cover acne scarring or pits before you put your foundation on. Its pricey but a little goes a long way and it makes a HUGE difference. The last thing I would suggest is to use a toner after you wash your face to get rid of the red. I use witch hazel or Almay Toner 2 with Meadowsweet. Good luck!
You do need to use a long lasting foundation like revlon colorstay. You may need to consider using a primer under your foundation. You can't really find these in drugstores so will have to pay a little more. I use Clinique city block as a primer, it is really a sunscreen but has good oil control properties. There are some other good primers by Laura Mercier and smashbox. Go to a beauty site like sephora and enter ';primer'; and see what you get. The best thing to do really is go to the department store and get a consultation from a makeup artist.

I use clinique. It's oil free, fragrance free. Remember, no matter what brand you choose, it's not going to completely banish the oil. You need to blot several times a day then put just a small amount opf powder on so your face stays fresh. I have skin like yours and I tried all sorts of products but I always go back to Clinique. It may take some time to find out what really works and what doesn't work at all....good luck!!!Which foundation or make up should i use as i have very oily skin,, and sweat a lot on the face..pls help?????
I have the same problem and mary kay has great products for that. Just find the nearest mary kay dealer and Im sure she can help you. It may be a little pricey but it works.
I have very oily skin and I broke down and bought i.d. Bare Minerals.
I love it!!! I will never use any other kind.
It goes on so smooth and covers great, they have a sort of top coat called Mineral veil, and it helps control oil. And unlike face powder it never gets cakey or thick no matter how many times a day you reapply.
I also found some rice paper, they are little sheets that you press on your face and they soak up oil. Love 'em!!
You have completely described my skin! I use Mary Kay, as someone has mentioned -- it is pricey, but it works well.
Good luck.
wear oil free, I use covergirl oil free .. works for me. or you can wear the real expensive stuff, go to your best dept store makup counter tell them and have them give you a consultation. Or order Bare Minerals is great 65.50 for the first package.
I also have the same problem with oily skin. I use physicians formula which you can get at any drugstores pretty much. Its very light, and gives a nice natural look and it also goes with all skintones pretty much. Its so light you can nearly sleep in it!

Sephora Brand Make-up Users! What is the difference between the matifying compact POWDER and the FOUNDATION?
The Sephora brand matifying compact powder is $14 and the matifying compact foundation is $20. I know the foundation can be used wet/ dry, but are there any other advantages? Does it provide much better coverage than the powder? And is the powder really just like a loose powder, or does it actually provide coverage?Sephora Brand Make-up Users! What is the difference between the matifying compact POWDER and the FOUNDATION?
Powder is usually more sheer and used for covering up oil on your face/nose, and is sometimes used on top of foundation, and foundation usually evens out your skin tone more and provides more coverage.
I'm not so sure about the exact Sephora brand, but i'd suspect it's the same case. hope this helps :]

Mac Foundation and Make up?
Is Mac foundation good for oily and acne prone skin?
Is it recommended for everyday wear?
I thinking of buying MAC make up (Foundation, conceler, eyeshadow, lipglass, brushes, all of it) and I dont know if its recommended for everyday use.
Im gonna use it at school and to other plces and stuff. :]
So, are MAC products good?Mac Foundation and Make up?
Mac Brushes, and gloss: Go for it.
Eyeshadow stays on long, and they have a wide variety of color choices
If I were you I would steer clear of their face makeup meaning foundation and concealers though. They tend to make people break out more. But you could always give it a tryMac Foundation and Make up?
MAC is heavy makeup and makes you break out as it clogs pores then it costs you a ton to try and fix your complexion stay clear if it. Try bee luscious cosmetics liquid powder mineral foundation,concealers and primer. Its great for everyday wear its hypo allergenic and will not clog pores at all. I love it, it has done miracles for my complexion.
Yes they have nice product I use their eyeshadow and lip gloss umm as far as foundation I use Mary Kay But I do have some Mac powder that I ocassionally use if I look extremely oily on the spot
Try bee luscious its oil free and will not clog pores. Its hypo allergenic I love it.I use it all the timeliquid eyeshadow
