hi girls.
I want to buy make up base. But there's a few types im considering and I cant really decide on one.
PLEASE tell me which one wil u choose and why?

1: transparent make up base with SPF50 ( make up forever UV prime)
2: transparent make up base, no spf, but is more hydrating than 1 (Make Up For Ever HD Microperfecting Primer in 0)
3: transparent make up base with a hint of pink to make your skin look like its glowing in pink, less hydrating than 1 (Make Up For Ever HD Microperfecting Primer in pink)
4: Beige color make up base, no spf. (a korean brand)

Firstly, I'm not sure whether i should choose transparent or beige, cause I'm thinking beige can even out the skin tone and act like a foundation too.

OR do you guys know if there's Beige make up base with SPF too?
or should I buy the SPF seperately?

PLease help! I dont know which to choose =X

BRAND is always important to me. Afterall, foundation is merely the step 5 for showing off, not the core of skin care. And skin care always come in first in my list.

What do you mean u need to buy make up base? Do you mean u need a base before apply foundation? The correct way of apply full make up is, Sun protector/Sunblock => Concealer => Foundation Liquid or 2 way cake => Loose powder

Your 'transparent xyz' in your list, is that waht the product's name or it is your interpretation or what the sales call it as? Sorry cant help on choosing those

But to judge if you suits transparent or beige or pink, you need to know your face for sure during daily activities.

For day time usage, it is always good to choose a tone that is SLIGHTLY DARKER than your actual face color. This way you dont shock others with your Whither face than usual, but only naturally. U have got to try some on your side lower cheek and look at face to compare.

PINK is always a good choice for ladies with pale/fair skin. I cant use pink in daytime or if i ve to go under the sun or i became ugly. I only use PINK when im onto full make up for strictly indoor function or night.

For no make up days, after skin care, i just apply sun block twice a day till night and let it rest ~

Unless u wanna go to make up procedures from bare skin after washed.....

hi babe, i bought my beige make up base already. its from my make up teacher, a koreanbrand.
it doesnt say it has spf on the bottle, but my teacher say it has.
i dun like bb cream cause its oily.
i think there's actually a lot of beige make up base with spf, u'll juz have to look for it.
and i think rite, shud get a moisturizer with spf. cause i dun use make up often.
so whether i apply make up or not, i still have spf on my face cause of the moisturizer (:
