Recommend your foundation
I don't wear make-up...pretty much ever, unless I am "going out" or somewhere nice. And even then it's only eye make-up. I'm really tired of having so much redness in my face. I have tried using foundation in the past but it a)made my face feel gross, b)didn't even make a huge difference. Of course, I bought cheap stuff.
I have combination skin and don't want to break the bank! Any suggestions?

Re: Recommend your foundation
I use Bare Escentuals too and they have a great deal going on at Sephora, at least at the JC Penney in Albany. It comes with 2 foundations, 1 warming powder, brushes, and primer for 48 bucks, It's the starter kit.
On my derm's recommendation I started using a primer by Colorscience

there are different shades according to your skin tone, and while it's not cheap, you need so little of it, one bottle lasts me over 6 months. I love the feeling of it, it evens out your tone, and it's got good stuff for your skin!

I also use the mineral foundation from Loreal. It's a little less expensive than the bare minerals and I don't have to make a special trip to get it. Most drug stores carry it.
How heavy it goes on depends on the size of the brush you are using, so it might take a little time and trial to get it dialed in. I use a brush larger than the one provided in pakcage for lighter coverage and to make it last longer.
This is what I use. I'm picky about foundation because the wrong one will make my face feel really icky and greasy. This has a powder finish to it, and doesn't feel like I have anything on at all.
