This is my first discussion on mylot and I would like to share with mylotters my trade secret as I am a beauty expert. Usually people do not know what type of makeup to chose for their skin type so I thought out letting them know about it. People with Dry skin should go for Liquid Oil based makeup as it helps in keeping the face moist and glossy, whereas people with oily skin type should use Powder based makeup as it helps the makeup to remain for a longer duration and will not make your face oily.

Thanks for responding. I can give you a remedy for acne. Everyday half boil one carrot and eat with fresh salad and green vegetables. Drink minimum 8 to 10 glasses of water. Mix cloves powder along with sandalwood powder and make it into a paste and apply on your acne. Let me know if you have dandruff problems so that I can give you a remedy.

Thanks for sharing your expertise. I have an oily T-zone though, and the only make-up I like to wear is foundation and lip gloss. I have trouble looking for the best foundation for me because I really want the foundation to disappear in my skin. How do I deal with this? Thanks!
