Need more help from the GC experts!

Has anyone tried any of the Elizabeth Arden foundations?

I'm having problems finding a foundation I like. When I was in college I used the Neutrogena cream-based compact (they don't make it any more, now I think it's comparable to their skin-clearing one) and I LOVED it! That was back in like '99-'01. Before the wedding I switched to Clinique and started using their foundations...but have slowly discovered that I am NOT a liquid foundation person. I've tried almost every foundation they make and they all suck. They all get so shiny on me and w/ the liquid I find I have a hard time blending and I get that crease.

Tried using MAC and it made me break out terribly. Promptly returned that.

Last weekend I went to the Lancome counter and tried the Dual Finish powder foundation....and have been using it all week. Well, I'm just too shiny. The thing I like about it is that I have no makeup line, and the break-outs on this makeup line have gone away (didn't really realize that the liquid was doing that until I stopped!). But I'm shiny w/in an hour, as opposed to getting shiny about the middle of the day.

Anyways, a friend of mine uses that Elizabeth Arden mousse foundation stuff. She loves it - so I was checking it out on their website. Turns out they also have a cream foundation that is similar to what I used to use w/ Neutrogena. Soooooo......

....anyone have a good experience w/ Elizabeth Arden?
