my face sans makeup:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v295/xbrandedx/Photo6-1.jpg

i have regular skin, that is, not oily or dry, i get a couple pimples once a month. i have yellow undertones.

i want to even out my skin tone, especially around my eyes & mouth

i live in a cold climate ... so i'm not worried about the sun but rather i'd like to protect my skin from wind and dryness. (i also have broken out using heavy liquid concealer ... it felt like it clogged my pores)

would you recommend liquid, powder, mineral or some combination? which brands?
any tips on choosing colors? should they all be the same shade?

i'd also really appreciate application tips ... i've only used a tiny bit of concealer and powder so far.

thanks so much in advance.
