This foundatio...Thanks for another excellent post. This foundation interests me much but I'm afraid the result you get may not apply to my oily skin. You characterize this as a cream to powder foundation and I wonder if you could tell me if this is closer in texture and consistency to Cle de peau cream to powder foundation of La prairie powder foundation. I use La prairie for similar uses as you with Serge and although it is quite creamy I would not consider it as cream to powder like the Cle de peau one. Also, could you give me some Hakuhodo recommentation for powder foundations? You recommend Shiseido foundation brush for the Serge but it may have to do with its creamy texture? Also, I use Chantecaille spf 46 powder refills and as I see your review of that product, I was wondering if you could recommend some Hakuhodo brush for it. I'm about to place an order there but if you have other better options for these purposes, I'd be interested in that as well. I would love it if there is an ideal brush that would do both beautifully, but not with much sacrifice in performance. One thing to note is that I don't want light dusting sort of application. I feel secure with tons of spf on my face (even at the risk of looking powdery although would rather avoid it if I can) and I have quite a large patch of post acne hyper pigmentation to cover up with my powder foundation. So something that packs on products quickly on without looking cakey would be ideal. I apologize for bombarding you with so many problems but would be very greateful for suggestions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-70326149586087757282012-10-29T13:06:30.961-04:002012-10-29T13:06:30.961-04:00Since it's a cream-to-powder texture I don'...Since it's a cream-to-powder texture I don't have to use a finishing powder over it, unless I'm using it more for spot concealing. Then again, my skin is usually normal-to dry and even very dry at times. <br />The foundation is ideal for touch ups because it applies seamlessly and you can just add a little right where it's needed. The slim compact is sleek and ideal for travel.Gaiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11561470171631737626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-59309134239168989342012-10-29T13:02:31.943-04:002012-10-29T13:02:31.943-04:00This sounds like one to try!

Please forgive my ignorance, but would one need to put anything over it (such as finishing powder)? and would this work for localized touch ups during the day? (my nose and chin usually need help).fgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04055644243092045611noreply@blogger.com
