Medical: Health Care
Dermatology/Corrective cosmetics
This is also referred to as 'creme compacte teintee', and appears to be a kind of foundation, (although there is also 'fond de teint' and 'base de maquillage'). I need the correct term used in cosmetics in English (which I think could include the word 'teint', and maybe also 'creme', but I am not sure that this is correct, or what order they should be in.)
The text is about corrective cosmetics and not ordinary beauty products.

: I think this word order is ambiguous, as foundation cream can be a sort of face cream applied before you put on coloured foundation - http://www.evansgarden.com/foundation-cream-normal-dry-skin....

Comment: "This is what is being discussed, tinted compact foundation cream to disguise blemishes, so this is the word order that would be correct. Thank you very much Liz. (and thank you for your interesting references, and to the other people for theirs)."
