I haven't used the Philosophy, because I stopped at the Clinique counter, to see what they suggested for my splotchy cheeks and clogged up pores on my chin. She said the pores weren't bad enough to need a "pore minimizer" but she suggested I use the Redness Solutions Cleanser & Cream for 2 weeks and see how my cheeks were. That was Saturday and I've used it every morning & night since then and I LOVE IT!!! I've been wearing just a tinted moisturizer (tiral) and some powder and picked up some full size for the summer. And my chin even looks cleared!
Today I tried Maybelline's Dream Matte Mousse Liquid Foundation & Powder and I actually picked the right match! (Light 2) It goes on beautifully and covers my problems (which since the Clinique, my cheeks aren't as bad but it covered my acne scars well, too). I used a damp wedge sponge to apply it... I really want to pick up the BeautyBlender, but the Duo w/ Cleanser is sold out on Sephora, and it's the best deal, so I will wait.
Tonight I did a quick look with the MUFE #92 and my Stila Red Carpet Look Palette, which I LOVE.
