I've just starting using Revlon Colorstay foundation, and it's been better than any of the other drugstore brands I've tried. I like a heavier long-wearing foundation. I have used Estee Lauder Double Wear, and Revlon Colorstay is very similar, at a much cheaper price. I tried a Rimmel foundation last year (but I don't remember the name) and it was okay, but I don't use it any more.

I don't usually use concealer either, I usually use the thickened product up inside the lid on the bottle of liquid foundation, or when I use Bare Escentuals I just use the foundation and apply with a concealer brush. But I got a Revlon Beyond Natural concealer & highlighter kit half price when I bought my foundation, and I like it really well. It's a creamy concealer, in a peachy shade that goes on smooth and covers dark circles and hides my visible pores.

As for powder, I'm not particularly picky, as long as it's translucent, rather than colored. I apply it liberally since I'm oily & get shiny too quickly if I skimp on powder. Currently, I'm using Almay Pure Blends, simply because I had bought the foundation & powder a few months ago. (side note: the foundation is probably a good choice for anyone who likes a more sheer lightweight foundation. It was a good color match, but I'm just too oily for it. Give me a good long-wear foundation any day. LOL)

I've used pressed powder foundations by Prestige (got it at Walgreens) and Neutrogena. (as well as some high-end ones). They're okay in winter, but in hot weather I still get oily. Same with mineral foundation, of which I've tried Bare Escentuals, LOreal Bare Naturale, Physicians Formula, and Avon.

Foundation I find that I do not wear much off, but I do like Loreal or Revlon
Concealers I like are Revlon and again loreal
Best finishing powders that I like are Marcelle or Physicians Formula.
Also the Mac Mineral powder is excellant for all skin types.

i used to hang out with guys too. from your picture you are very pretty. you could try maybelline, loreal, wet and wild, covergirl has all kinds of stuff now. well they always did but i didn't need a foundation so i can't tell you if it works. you could go to the dollar store and look or to big lots or ollies. find something that you like. i haven't been to a cosmetic counter in a long time. they have samples. try them and see if you like them. they are free. sorry i couldn't be more help but covergirl is pretty good

I've been pretty happy with the Revlon concealer I mentioned. I like that it's a creamy texture, it blends easily. I think the peachy shade also blends better than a pale beige "skin" color would.

Physician's Formula Mineral Wear Loose Powder Foundation is a very good drug store foundation that has excellent full coverage.

Physician's Formula Finishing Veil Translucent Powder is a great setting powder and it doesn't have any shimmer or sparkle to it - it's completely matte.

Thank you everyone, i found some cover girl smoother concealer at my local dollar store,
Its ok, im not happy with the "lipstick" like tube, it blends well, but it dosnt cover nething @all for me, & my dark spots are not reallly noticable, so the coverage for me sucks...

Still looking...

Foundation : CoverGirl Advanced Radiance is liquid and dries like a powder.
Rimmel 16 hour is full coverage and lasts for 12+ hours.

Concealer : I've only used Maybelline Age Rwind

Powder : Cover Girl TruBlend is really good.

Mineral Powder : My #1 is Maybelline Mineral Power

Maybelline has a new 24 hour Super Stay long-wear make up. I haven't tried it or read any reviews yet, but have seen the ad in Allure magazine.
