Looking for recommendations on foundation that lasts all day. my skin is not too dry and not too oily. i have some small slightly darker spots from old blemishes so need something with good coverage. my wedding is also in august so will likely be very hot

    I love Physicians Formula Super CC+. It was recommended to me by a skincare professional and it's perfect for me. Lasts all day, minimizes and corrects dark spots, and does a lot of other great stuff too. Also, pretty cheap!

    I love IT brand CC cream! You can buy it at Ulta for around $40. I have cystic acne scars and spider veins and it's one of the only CC creams that works well and makes my skin look great. I am very conscious about what I put on my face and this does not dry out or make my face oily. It works with wonderfully with a damp blender ball.

    Smashbox Studio Skin is really all i trust. I also have dark spots....many of them on my cheeks. I have combination skin and it works so well.

    I wouldn't recommend a cc cream, they tend not to last as long and especially in August when it will be hot. I would recommend the Born this Way by Too Faced and I also love the Estée Lauder Double wear foundation as well

    I'm a big fan of L'Oreal's Infallible Pro-Matte makeup. No SPF, so it won't cause flashback in your photos, has fantastic coverage and should last all day. I also suggest finding a great primer and setting spray. One of my "tricks" to getting my face to last all day/ night is making sure my skin is prepped well beforehand, cleansed and moisturized.

    **Also consider that your wedding day is going to be full of nerves - do you want the added stress of making sure your face is ready for photos that are going to last forever?? I "could" do my own, I just refuse to add my shaky hands to the already busy day.

    I also don't recommend a CC cream, or ANYTHING with SPF.

    Makeup Forever Ultra HD it's seriously the best foundation I've ever used and photographs beautifully- it doesn't have any SPF which is something I look for and is rather hard to come by

    MUFE HD foundation or Estee Lauder Double Wear. The key to longevity is a good primer (Smashbox makes a bunch of good ones) and a setting powder or spray. For spray I love KVD Lock-it. For powder I like Stay Matte by Rimmel. Also consider a blotting powder for touchups.

    I only wear Maybelline FIT the regular one, I don't like the matte one.

    But honestly what works for one person does not work for another, you just have to try and see what works for your skin.

    I got Nars velvet skin tint. I like it. I just used it for thr first time yesterday to try it out. (I never wear anything on my face) it looked good all day. I just went to sephora and asked what she recommended and I got it haha. I'm not good with makeup stuff.

    I use Tarte amazon clay foundation. No harsh chemicals and made from exactly what it sounds like! I have very sensitive skin and have never had a breakout or irritation using this brand I also love the coverage!

    Im a total make up addict/snob. I agree with the tarte Amazonian clay foundation. It is my #1 favorite. It is pretty full coverage if that's what you're looking for and it stays all day and night. I also use the NARS luminous foundation. It's not as full of a coverage but I use that one if I am planning on doing all out Contour/highlight so it doesn't look so flakey.

    ETA: typo

    I use Revlon Colorstay Whipped mixed with L'Oreal Infallible with a stippling brush. I spray Urban Decay All Nighter on top and it literally stays all day with no shine breakthrough.

    Are you looking for everyday foundation or wedding foundation? Because those will be too very different things! I LOVE my IT Cosmetics CC cream for everyday. It has an SPF which you NEED if you're in the sun and don't want to age faster/get sunspots/get skin cancer. But, it's very sheer. For a wedding day, I would imagine you're going to need something thick and caked on... which will be very drying and not great for day to day wear.
