Light Foundation? Oil of Olay?

    Hey all :D

    I'm looking to invest in a good foundation.
    I've pretty normal skin but it's kinda pale and have quite rosey cheeks so don't want anything too cakey.

    I'm after something quite light, with SPF, but will also give me coverage.
    Does such a product exist? :confused::o

    I've seen the new Oil of Olay with Max Factor one advertised, it's moisturiser with foundation mixed in? I've read reviews and all seem to say you have to apply it often throughout the day etc.. Anyone have any experiences with it?

    I've also been looking at the Benefit 'You Rebel' tinted moisturiser but I don't know if it's worth the money as i'd probably have to used loads of concealer then.

    I can't seem to find an all in one cure haha.

    Would I just be better off getting a good moisturiser with SPF and a light foundation? Having been looking at the Benefit 'Do it Daily' moisturiser with SPF 10 and it looks good but just don't know :(


    Sorry for the long post, just don't wanna go throwing away money on something that ends up useless, really need help with this :o.


    Thankies :x.




    *I know there's a bit of a Benefit theme there, I just love their products lol. Open to any suggestions though :).

    I'm anti-foundation, hate the stuff and could never find the right one.

    I finally went to the prescriptives counter in BT's and they 'colour printed' me - matched me to the most gorgeous cream foundation. It's perfect in colour, leaves a light dewy finish and lasts all day. I'm a convert!!! Absolutely love the stuff .. think it's called Virtual Skin, and it has an SPF of 15 too. It's not the cheapest stuff you'll ever buy, but I thought having one bottle of stuff I use is better than a drawer full of crap at 15 quid a bottle .... !

    I found them very friendly at the counter (also went to the one in House of Fraser in Dundrum) - not at all stuck up like some of the makeup people in BT's .....
