foundation for sensitive skin

Anonymous
any recs? i've been using prescriptives for years, but it is being discontinued. i tried my sister's bobbie brown and my skin did not react well. i also thought it was too fragrant. would love a low to no fragrance suggestion.

I have pretty sensitive skin and I've found laura mercier's tinted moisturizer to be really great. It doesn't irritate my skin at all. Fragrance free.

I second Laura Mercier - and I have super-sensitive skin - I blew up like a tomato when I mistakenly used Chanel a couple years ago.

I would definitely stear clear of Lancome and Chanel. The fragrance in those are horrible for sensitive skin.

I can wear Laura Mercier and Bobbi Brown. I have found with BB it depends on which one you use. I can only use the most recent one she came out with-Skin Foundation I believe.

Bare Escentuals. No chemicals or fragrance. Recommended for super sensitive as well as skin that has undergone cosmetic procedures.

I like Max Factor pan stick. I have had horrible reactions to some of the 'expensive" make up so I avoid those like the plague. You may have to try a lot of different ones to see which one you like the best. I had the problem of finding some that didn't irritate, but also melted right off my face pretty quickly. Good luck!

I second the Bare Escentuals recommendation.

I have terrible sensitive skin, both dry and prone to breakouts. I hardly ever break out with this stuff, and it does not seem to clog pores. Go to their store in Tysons, so they can show you how to use it. I found the consult very helpful.
