After trying so many foundation's over the past few year's I came across ClarinsTrulyMatteFoundation in Pale Ivory with SPF15.
I tried the tester sample at first and found that this foundation goes on so easily and smooth. It is a perfect match to my skin coloyr giving me a perfect radiant complexion.
The foundation is Oil Free and has added SPF15 in which is a bonus as I always wear makeup!

Many moisturisers come with an SPF factor - the fact that I forget to use mine means that I'm grateful for the SPF15, thus hopefully protecting my skin from aging (though, having said that, since I seldom wear makeup, it's a bit of a moot point). My skin is fairly dry (and I'm in my early 40s), and I find that this stuff does ...
Advantages: Protects skin from sun and makes skin look truely radiant Disadvantages: Price is a bit expensive
