I trust Clinique skincare and makeup products because they have never broken me out and they do not add fragrances to their products which can irritate and inflame the skin if you are sensitive. Remember to clean the sponge and let it dry thoroughly just as often as you would your makeup brushes because they harbour bacteria also....I don't use foundations because my skin is so sensitive and breakouts if I do use it.
