What have you heard of Trish McEvoy, NARS, or Laura Mercier foundation?

I used to use DiorSkin Flawless but it looked dirty, caked-on, and uneven on my face.





I want to know how these would look/work out.





Thanks!





Also, any homemade masks I can make to EXFOLIATE my skin.What have you heard of Trish McEvoy, NARS, or Laura Mercier foundation?
i haven't tried trish mcevoy's, but i have tried the latter two. nars foundations are just okay for me.. they aren't bad, but i've tried MUCH better, especially for the price. laura mercier's foundations are absolutely amazing, especially the silk creme. it's full coverage, very creamy, oil-free, and stays on until you wash it off.





also, 9 times out of 10, the cakey look of foundation is caused not by the formula itself (although sometimes true with cheap drugstore brands) but the skin. always make sure to regularly exfoliate and MOISTURIZE beforehand, even with a light oil-free gel type, then let it sink in. to prevent cakey-ness even more, try a dimethicone-based primer, the clear kind that leaves you a smooth powdery finish.





as for any masks, try this: dissolve 4-5 uncoated aspirin tablets with a few drops of water, mix in a dollop of honey, apply and leave on for 10-15 minutes, then use it as a scrub as you rinse it off. the salicylic acid in the aspirin helps tackle acne and the humectant moisture of the honey counteracts any dryness. your skin will feel baby soft.What have you heard of Trish McEvoy, NARS, or Laura Mercier foundation?
Try any one that's oil free
