My fellow fair skinned beauties - need a good foundation!
Recommend yours please - I have been dropping hints as subtle as elephant steps that I want a GC to Sephora, so recommend any foundation you love...
Looking for something light - I don't have blemishes to cover up, just like my skin to look smooth and dewy, but want my skin to show through!!!

Re: My fellow fair skinned beauties - need a good foundation!
A liquid? I usualy wear Bare Minerals, b/c it comes in a few very light shades & b/c its' a powder, blends better.
For liquid, I have Nars Balanced Foundation in Mont Blanc.
I tried Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer on in Sephora, but none of the colors seemed right for me, and the oil free, sunk into my pores too much.
A lot of people love it though--tinted mositurizers are good if you want dewey & don't have a lot to cover.

Re: My fellow fair skinned beauties - need a good foundation!
I use Bare Minerals in Fair - it's the only foundation I've ever worn where I really feel like it doesn't look like I'm wearing any makeup at all, just have good skin. It blends so easily, too.

I really really like Aveda Inner Light Liquid Foundation. I use the Kasha color.
It's so light and just evens out skin tone, without feeling like I am wearing another layer of make-up. Very natural.

I would recommend a tinted moisturizer for you Liza. you don't need foundation.
the LM is great.
I use the Stila Illuminating. it's just as good and a tad cheaper.

I am on this bandwagon as well. I am one of the fairest in the land and I love the BE stuff.

I also use BE. I can't stand liquid foundation anymore.
You don't need much.

Re: My fellow fair skinned beauties - need a good foundation!
Does Bare Minerals REALLY  cover? I have many dark spots from acne scars and nothing I have works on hiding them

the foundation may not cover those spots but if you get the "bisque", it will probably work. if you go to Ulta or Sephora, you can try it out first before you buy.

I use BE Fairly Light as a concealer and Fair as foundation. Between the two, I swear, it looks like I have flawless skin (and trust me, I DON'T). I get a horrible reaction to the sun, and no matter what I do, walk around from May to October with little red bumps on my face. Once I'm done putting this makeup on, you can't see them at all.
