Right I havea problem.. I live in England therefore the English skin colour is totally different to the Chinese skin colour... I can never find the right tone of foundation and don't know which brand is best n all that? Help please?
have you tried going to a makeup counter or store to get your color matched? MAC has a variety of colors and so does make up for ever. if you have a sephora near you just go in and the sales people will help you =) and it really depends on how much you are willing to spend on your foundation. paul and joe protective fluid foundation is really good but it is hard to find so you would have to buy it online (cheaper) Cle de Peau Refining Fluid Foundation is REALLY good and has ingredients that benefit your face (high end)
imo, get one that works for your skin type. there are many different foundations out there for dry skin, oily skin, combo skin, and etc. it also depends on the type of coverage you want. some ingredients in foundations actually cause some people to get breakouts, so you just have to try different ones until you find one that you like. to find out if the foundation will give you skin problem, you can test it out for 1 week or just a few days. if you see a change in your skin, such as allergic reaction, breakouts, and etc.. stop using it. you can swipe different tones of foundation on the lower face area near the jawline in natural bright outdoor light to see which shade is closest to your skin color. you can always go to any makeup counter you prefer and have the makeup aritst match you up on a foundation. not all counters have good lighting, so you can get matched up with the wrong color. either a shade too dark or too light. if you're lucky, you'll get the correct shade. as for the brand of foundation, it depends on your price range and if you prefer drugstore foundation or department store ones. keep in mind that what works on others may not work on you. it's hard to find a holy grail product sometimes, so good luck finding one. i hope this helps. =D
do u mean the right type or right colour?? if ur looking for the colour it's best if u put some on ur jawline n c how well it blends with ur skin n pick the closest colour to ur skin... if u still can't find the right colour u can always mix a lighter one with a darker one to get the exact shade u want... as for brand well that's a personal preference n it depends on how much u wanna spend... i'm pretty happy with Biotherm at the moment... but i have used Maybelline n Maxfactor on my models n they seemed pretty happy with them...
well im using maybelline matte mousse coz i love how it goes onto my skin but the tones and its vcarieties are limited here :( buti bought some Mac studio fix powder the other day soo.. will have to check em out when i used up the old ones first
i was the makeup artist for this short movie my church was making... n the skin colours of the actors/actresses vary from really really really tanned to caucasian white... so my fd n i bought this really dark and really white maybelline foundation n mixed our own colour for each actor hahaha... n it's easy... but if $$ isn't an issue do try different brands n c which one u like... n don't forget make sure the lighting is close to day light or at least bright enough when u r testing out the colour
If you go to Home Depot or any home improvement stores, I'm pretty sure the paint department can color match just about anything.
i should really use you as my lil model for my foundation shades experiment shouldn't i kontradictions??
Don't you have a BF for that? That's what they're there for. Make him do it and reward him with sexy time.
