What's the coverage like on the Vitalumiere Aqua? I'm not happy with the coverage that Bobbi Brown is providing.

MAC Studio Fix is the very best for oily skin I think.

have also used that....

Hi! I'm looking for a very natural, light foundation that's good for combo/oily skin but still gives good coverage. I'd prefer something with a somewhat matt-ish finish but still has a radiance to it, and something that's definitely not heavy looking and doesn't make you look like you've got a lot of makeup on.

thnks!!

Chanel Mat Lumiere!

My everyday go-to is Estee Lauder Double Wear Light, but from what you want in a foundation perhaps Giorgio Armani's Lasting Silk, Luminous Silk, or Guerlain's Lingerie de Peau would be better for you. I own Lasting Silk, which is supposed to be longer lasting than Luminous Silk but I haven't personally tried it. I tried a sample of Lingerie de Peau and fell in love with that foundation. The coverage was very good but still looked very natural. Btw, I have really oily skin, so I look for staying power in my foundations!

Max factor also good for oily skin. I only blot 1 times for 8 hours

how do you all feel about chanel's vitalumiere aqua? does anybody know what kind of finish it gives and what skin type it is suitable for?

I have that and really oily skin, no go! It slides off my face.
I am still searching for the perfect foundation for my skin, the best so far:
YSL Teint Resist
Shiseido Sun Protection liquid foundation--I have mixed Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua w/ OK results.
Revlon ColorStay

Have you tried Bobbi Brown's Skin foundation, I have really oily skin and I live in a hot and humid region and this one really works for me.

I've heard one or two UK YouTuber's say it--Fleur? and HollyYMBB Because of Perfection Lumiere they are discontinuing Mat and (the already) Pro. I wanted to try it but when I heard this I backed off. Maybe it's UK only?

Edit: found Holly's blog post: http://www.ymbeautyblog.com/2012/01/...e-initial.html

And I don't use any primers with this, the whole routine is Bobbi Brown Oil Control Lotion SPF 5 followed by the foundation and then I dust with Bobbi Brown Loose powder or the Powder Illuminating foundation.

Also I have noticed with me its has to do a lot with the application, I used to apply with a Bobbi Brown foundation brush or MAC 186 but realized I get better results with these Sigma Round Top Synthetic Kabuki - F82 http://www.sigmabeauty.com/Sigma_Rou..._F82_p/f82.htm and ELF Powder brush http://www.eyeslipsface.com/studio/t.../powder_brush:

The application looks great and I don't get that oily, I just blot/powder after say 4 hours which is pretty good for me.
