Fave Beauty Products??

Personally, I find it so annoying how many beauty products I've wasted my money on, only to get it home & find it just doesn't work for me!
Maybe we can help each other take some of the guesswork out of the equation?

I have really oily skin & find that a mousse type works best. Currently using Boots No 7 mousse foundation.
How easy it to get the colour right if you buy from an Avon catalogue?

but i did discover from a make up artist friend (as it was running out) that it is actually good to use as an illuminator - whereas i was using as an undereye concealer. I didn't really even have anything to conceal i just liked to whip it out cause its expensive and i though i was pretty special.

Foundation i'm loving is 'georgio armani luminous silk' but pricey though at about $90.00!!!
wanted to try something mineral but think i'll pass now thanks girls.
could use a cheaper liquid one though.

what is Boots?

I've often thought about trying Giorgio Armani foundation, but it is very expensive, as you say!
Also, Laura Mercier looks good, anybody tried her??

It’s at least got to be better than my MAC, which has great coverage but makes me break out.
In general I’m always changing beauty products and brands, there’s not really one specific item I couldn’t live without.
