I use mineral foundation too. I'm quite fair skinned and found all of the more expensive ones left a bit of a yellow tinge. I now use Avon and its fantastic, very natural and stays put 🙂
I had to change foundation when I had hot flushes. I used to use a Clinique liquid, but now I use Elizabeth Arden mineral foundation powder. Its got a SFP 20 in it. I was very sceptical trying it, as I'd always used Clinique liquid, but now I wouldnt go back to a liquid as I love this too much. Its a bit pricey, but Boots often do a 3 for 2 on EA products, so I stock up then.
If you go to the counter, they'll put it on for you and see what you think.

Thank you so much for your suggestions I am off to Boots in Bromley today to see all the glam makeup girls... who knows I might even get some freebies !!!!!
Bobbi Brown make-up works for me and holds on when others fail! I use the liquid or stick foundation base topped off with a powder. Many variations to suit your skin type and shade and with so many choices it is worth taking the time to try out options before 'investing'. Well worth taking the time to find the brand and what works for you.
when I was in LA my friends kept water based foundation in the fridge. I find that using an all-in-one powder foundation like MAC works best for me, then you can just blot when you flush.
I use Clinique Redness Solutions. Seems to stay on quite well and tones down the red nose! If you go somewhere like a big branch of Boots or Debenhams they have women on the counters who'll let you try it out.
Can anybody recommend a makeup ie oundation that doesnt slide off the face when having a flush ??!!! I need to start feeling a bit girly again but all my stuff just seems to disappear ! I have a rather large family do on Sunday as its Hubbys 40th and I just want to try to give the air that alls well to stop the famalies from worrying so uch about me !!! I hope you all understand !
