    Need a new *dewy* foundation :)
    Hey, wondering if anyone had any recommendations? I've ran out of my mac studio sculpt spf15 foundation and I need a new one. I have combination skin but I don't need that much coverage anymore because my skin is fairly clear now. I find mac too thick and I also would prefer a dewy rather than matt finish.

    I am NW20, and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions of a good foundation to try? I was thinking about trying the chanel lumiere, but I don't know which one to try

    Thanksss

    A mascara would also be helpful

    I gave Lancome Teint Miracle a go recently and I absolutely fell in love with it. Gives quite light coverage but it makes your skin look flawless. And when you look at it in the bottle, it looks like it has a highlighter mixed in there. Obviously as it's a high end foundation, it's pretty pricey (about £30 I think) but I can't recomment it enough.

    Also, for a mascara, I use Chanel Inimitable Intense. I've tried Dior, YSL and Lancome before but I keep going back to the Chanel one. Seems to be the best all-rounder I've tried so far.

    Chanel Vitalumiere/Vitalumiere Aqua. Just check out some reviews and see which is best for you.

    I agree, vitalumiere aqua is mt fave!

    Also, OP isnt studio sculpt too much coverage? I only use it occasionally, its too heavy imo

    MAC mineralize skinfinish fluid is good for dewey, and it's quite light buidable coverage. A cheaper one is Bourjois healthy mix, I really really like the way it looks on my skin.

    If you don't need much coverage, a tinted moisturiser might work- I used benefit's you rebel lite during the day and it's lovely.
