❀❀ price of pretty ❀❀

I'm in an unending quest of finding the right foundation. It's robbing me. They cost over 2,000 per bottle. A few years back, I was content with pharmaceutical brands like Maybelline, Revlon, and Loreal. I remember feeling superior then owning "branded" cosmetics. I can be naive, I know. I've seen the white light so I'm now more inclined to owning the real branded cosmetics like MAC, Smashbox, Nars, Shiseido, and Lancome.

My skin type is a bit special, that's why. I'm acidic and prone to hormonal acne. So it has to be TRUE (no false claims) non-comedogenic. I also buy shades one or two tones lighter than my skin tone because of my acidic skin. I have nooo idea what's the cause of that. Also, I have yellow-ish skin so most Smashbox foundations (I've tried 4 kinds) works well for me. But their products don't cope well with acid and their shades are sooo limited.

So far, Lancome Macqui Blanc is my better choice. It's made for Asian Skin. I wear this all day at work and it never cakes, though it fades just a tiny bit. No breakouts. The only disadvantage is that it's not as yellow-ish as Smashbox.

I haven't found my personal demi-god of all foundations yet. The search continues...I still have to try Shu Uemura, Laura Mercier, and Chanel. With all my might, I will afford them with my meager income. I'm ambitious (or vain?) like that.
