Different people with different tastes and preferences
some of us love our common and traditional white powder, some others graduate to brown,

At the end of the day what is it gonna be for you?

Like i say, NO ONE SHOULD USE WHITE POWDER.

Always find a powder that's your skin color. It works better. No one has white skin, so please cancel white powder.

I dont use white powder, and i don't use foundations.

I think only women with wrinkles use foundation. I use covergirl normal honey colored powder. I buy my color, and that's it. Ease breezy beauftiful covergirl.  Smiley

@bettyboop, that's what i think. I think only ladies that r trying to cover wrinkles use foundation. It's called PAN-CAKE. I dont like it. My own opinion that is.

by all means have an opinion on not liking it my dear but, saying people who use it are doing so because they have wrinkles is  quite ignorant, come on now! you say ''only ladies trying to cover,  quite a strong statement, based on what exactly, you run a survey of foundation users or something? quite an outrageous claim, as i know people as young as 16 who use them and one can clearly say with out proof that ladies in this age bracket have not started the aging process yet. And  even women of mature age sometimes don't have wrinkles down to their physiology, WHAT SAY YOU?

Pan-cake or whatever u call it, Genevieve nnaji uses foundation, i have seen her in many nigerian films with no makeup at all and found no wrinkle Cheesy

Its ok to say you don't like foundation but do not  make outrageous claims as to the profile of the users.

Most feel heavy on my skin, but using a tinted moisturiser with some shimmer works just fine for me, gives a sheer "glow" to my dry skin, but I don't use this everyday as I am too lazy!

I use Niovi brown powder and it so blends with my skin, i love it. But hey! That doesnt stop me from using white powder too, i use Enchanteur alluring, enticing, romantic, etc.

To say that only people who are trying to hide something use foundation is very wrong and ill-informed.Its just like saying you use powder because you have a naturally blotchy skin.Foundation is not my cup of tea because it makes me feel like i have another layer of skin on my face but if it works for you,good for you.
I dont use any powder,my skin is not oily,not dry,just normal and i like the way it looks when i wash it and apply my makeup directly without using any powder.
Thats my piece.

At the moment i wear Mary-kay medium coverage foundation because it is very light and has a matted feeling to it. I used M.A.C studio fix before this and it gives me spots on my face so i had to stop using it.
I use to have the same notion that foundations were too extreme before i tried it out and it works for me. You just need to find what suits your skin and use it to your advantage.

I use the medium coverage Mary Kay foundation and then put the mineral Powder on top. You have not lived until you try using mineral powder foundation, beyonce step aside.
