Need makeup advice

I was using bare minerals but I'm tired of powder. I need very minimal coverage. Primers don't work for me, my t-zone is too oily and nothing mattifies. I tried BB creams and they were all too dark for my super fair skin. Tinted moisturizers are out for the most part as well, I have combo skin and they just make me more oily. I don't even know what to look for anymore! Help please Chat Icon

Re: Need makeup advice

Once I hit my mid 30s this past year I felt like my face skin changed and powders were no longer cutting it for me any more. I went to sephora and had them perform a color IQ on me. Depending upon its calibration you may need to have it done twice, but have them recommend a few foundations for you. Try them on and then ask for samples of each one. Take them all home and try them on. One way to really tell if it is a good color for you is to match the bottom of your jaw to your neck near your ear. It should match there. Also look at yourself in your car mirror - while outside. That is the least forgiving light.
