Question

I am on the hunt for a new foundation to add to my makeup bag. I am almost out of the one that I am currently using and I don't think that I am as happy with it as I was before. Or, maybe it's just that I'm not as happy with it in the summer months as I am in the winter. It's a Mac pressed powder somethingorother and I find that it looks great right when I put it on but that it does not give me a lasting evenness to my skin. So, I'm looking for something that is light weight, will even out my skin and keep it looking that way for longer than 30 minutes, is oil free and controls oil, something that will hold up in this humid climate and is preferably something I can purchase at my local drug store.
I ask you, what kind of foundation do you use and if you like it, why?

I like one from Clinique called "Perfectly Real Makeup." I'm no expert, but I've come to love it over the years. I do LOVE Mac's eye products though...they do wonders.

I currently use Laura Mercier's tinted moisturizer (in Nude). That, combined with some pats of Bobbi Brown concealer and a dusting of loose powder give me my base. When I run out of my LM I plan to try a Sonia Kashuk tinted moisturizer instead, to help the budget. I have otherwise almost 100% good things about Bare Escentials I.D. makeup. And supposedly a "set" lasts almost a year.
