Re: Foundation
foundation helps even out skin tone, minimize the appearance of pores & give an overall smoother appearance.
Powder helps set the foundation, or on its own, it can tone down redness & shine.
Whether or not you need it on a regular basis depends on your skin, but generally, if you are wearing a lot of make, for say a formal event, it looks for complete to have foundation on.
If you aren't used to it, you might want to start with a tinted moisturizer or Bare Minerals. (it's a mineral powder that acts as a foundation)

Re: Foundation
Might I also suggest a BB Cream since you are new to wearing foundation?
It doesn't feel as heavy, yet gives a nice smooth even look. It doesn't look as "done" and "make upy" as a traditional foundation.
I LOVE Garnier BB cream. It's great on my bad skin.

Re: Foundation
I don't use foundation but I do like to use a tinted moisturizer. It's a lot lighter on my face.

I switched from foundation to the BB cream. I do a light coat of powder over it to set it...and add some concealer.

I don't think it's dumb at all, but I hope you did a 180 because a 360 puts you back where you were! heheh.
As far as foundation, start small. Maybe pick up some Bare Minerals or a tinted moisturizer.
