I don't think Olay is making cosmetics any more, aren't they strictly skin care now?
Really, different people want different results from their make up, so what works miracles for one might not do a darn thing for another.

I'm using Maybelline Super Stay Silky Foundation, and I have oily skin.
I used to use Estee Lauder almost exclusively, but I'm trying to cut down on expenses, so now I'm using drugstore products. So far,I like the Maybelline products pretty well.

Well it depends on what you are trying to achieve. As a pro I tend to use foundations like Temptu (For my airbrush) Cinema Secrets and other pro lines.

For everyday women I also say never skimp on your foundation. Make that your investment. I am also a firm beliver in taking care of your skin so you can get away with a more sheer foundation that looks natural.

For drugstore brands I like Loreal True match with a touch of moisturizer to sheer it out!

Yeah... I am not a big fan of drugstore brand foundations, I've used them for demos, yet they don't stand up to higher end foundations like Cinema Secrets, Giorgio Armani, Ben Nye's new Belle Visage line, and Kryolan's Ultra-Foundation.

I agree with kittenhead, don't scrimp on foundation, without it, your make-up won't look good.

I like to use a house as an analogy: A house will fall down without it's foundation.
