I use Missha for my foundation coz its not thick. VOV definitely suits my skin but I do not know about others. What is good for asian skin basically any product thats meant for asian skin. ( i guess?)

I use CoverFX's Powder FX, because I don't need that much coverage, and when I apply it with my Smashbox #1 Brush, it's a very sheer look.
And it's talc-free, oil-free, and controls shine (which is my primary concern.)
And what do you mean good for Asian skin?
Like, in shades that match Asian skin tones?
Because CoverFX has got a lot of different shades.

I use a few different brands, depending on the occasion or look I'm going for.
For an everyday, natural look, I like to use mineral make-up. It provides good coverage, the amount of which is easily controllable, and doesn't make me breakout. I specifically use/recommend Everyday Minerals for their excellent color selection. I also love their blushes.
I use DiorSkin Forever Extreme Wear foundation when I want to make sure my foundation stays put, without needing to touch up. Their Linen shade has a nice yellow base and seems to be popular among many Asian women. I'm a big fan of Dior cosmetics in general and also use their eye shadows and mascara. They can be a bit pricey, but the quality is excellent.
I use MAC for their lipsticks and for liquid eyeliner. Everything else seems either too highly pigmented for me (I'm the type that likes to start off light and add as needed) or makes me break out cause it's so heavy.
The last brand I use is Laneige. Since it's a Korean company, they really know what colors suit Asian skin tones, and I think the quality is pretty good overall. I really like their Snow Crystal line and use it as touch up when I'm wearing mineral foundation since mineral make-up is so messy to apply on the go.
