Foundation shopping is frustrating Any recommendations?

[toban]

I was using Korres mineral foundation in the summer. However it's too dry for the colder weather. I need a liquid.

My skin is sensitive, combination (dry cheeks, slightly oily t-zone). Broken capillaries and some redness. I don't like a matte finish. More natural or healthy looking that is light to medium coverage.

I hate MAC foundations (broke me out)

My skin tone is neutral to warm. I'm guessing I need a foundation that is more neutral, beige or with some yellow tones.

I would like to find a drugstore brand but most of them don't have testers.

So if you have any suggestions please let me know. Thanks!

I recently tried the Sally Hansen Natural Beauty by Carmindy Airbrush foundation http://www.sallyhansennaturalbeauty.com/

It's sheer but buildable and I have really sensitive skin and have no reaction. And I hate foundation and don't wear it much.

It's a great quality product for the price. Actually I find the whole line is. You can find it at SDM.

you can usually find it at SDM locations where they have the islands, like where the Smashbox products are if they sell them

the SDM i go to has duwop, pur minerals, and a few other companies i havent heard of , my SDM doesnt have smashbox either which totally sucks because i remember looking for the SB primer i couldnt find it

I'm going to check out a few other SDMs def worth it after all the good things i'm hearing about sally hansen

There's this website that you enter your colouring, and it shows you a list of foundation brands that you may be compatible with. I find it really helpful when I want to try new brands without actually testing the colour (especially for drugstore brands with no tester)!
