Thanks for your help :) xMAC foundation/tinted mouistriser colour?
I always go lighter, esp in the fall/winter. You can add bronzer or blush if it's not dark enough. Going lighter is always safer than going darker in my opinion.MAC foundation/tinted mouistriser colour?

MAC NW15 foundation shade, my right colour?
I ordered mac off the internet as there is no mac counters in my country, people were telling me to get NW15 until some person who claims they're a proffesional artist said you cant tell from my photo really, so what do you all think. Was i right getting NW15?

You cant really tell from a picture as everyones computer screen has slightly different hues.
It really is better to actually test products diectly on the skin, along the jawline is best.
If you have already ordered it then I guess youre just going to have to hope for the best but it might be an idea to mail MAC direct and explain that you dont have a MAC counter in your country and ask if they could send a couple of samples. Most manufacturers are pretty accommodating.
Best of luckMAC NW15 foundation shade, my right colour?
Unfortunately the best way to tell if a colour is right is to swatch it on the jawline or at best try it all over your face first. Since you do not have a MAC nearby, it will be a bit harder.
Your pictures make it a little hard to tell but maybe answering some questions I could help you out.
Are you quite pale? If so then choosing a ';15'; shade was correct, however the NW/NC depends on what undertones your skin has. If you are more rosy/pink then NW15 was correct and it should look good. If you are more golden/olive then you should have gone for NC15.

p.s i bought infallible from shop and got golden sand but idk it doesnt go well with my skinRight foundation for my skin colour?
If you go to a Mac or Clinique store, they will give you a free makeup consultation. I have similar skin to yours and I really struggled until I went there and now I have the perfect colour. It changes in the summer of course but once they know your skin type (warm/cold/ peach/ golden, etc) they can predict a colour change. They ae a bit pricey though but it's the makeup the pros use so can't complain! Once you've got the right foundation from them, you can buy it on Ebay much cheaper when you run out.Right foundation for my skin colour?
its hard to tell you what color you need.
you really need to go to the store (and i know this seems bad) but you need to open the bottle and try a little on your skin.. its the only way you can find a perfect shade.
or you can have a professional help you find one.
i heard theres tis stuff that is foundation, and you move a dile, and it makes diff, colors...i think jesica alba was in teh comercial for it, byut i cant think of what its call///sorry :[ but i saw it at cvs/walgreens they might have it other stores too

Grrr. I Cant get a foundation to match my colour!?
any tips.?Grrr. I Cant get a foundation to match my colour!?
Try mixing two different shades together to get your shade.Grrr. I Cant get a foundation to match my colour!?
Try going to a Cosmetic Specialist.
oh i know!!
Use the smart makeup by covergirl I think.
All that you have to choose from is if your skin color is
light or medium %26amp; then apply to your face and then beads inside the makeup match your face while
covering your blemishes and any imperfections.
Good luck! ( ;
As your picture is shaded I cant see your skin tone but Dream Matte Mouse by Maybelline works wonders. The shades are simply shown so you can see what works best for you. If your slightly tanned use a sand colour.
Find a Mac store, they match your shade with you there for free and they have thousands of colours, such a reliable foundation! x
I used to think that for a long time-I'm quite fair and so many foundations look too orange on me. One useful tip is that when you test foundation on your hand (or even better your jawline) in a shop, you should go back outside to look at the colour in daylight. Quite often makeup looks a completely different colour under shop lights-I've lost count of the number of times I got home to find that the makeup I thought was the right colour actually wasn't because of that-until someone told me to go outside! lol. Hope that helps! x
Sure you can. I thought the same thing once - but then I found aularale.com/7002. It was an answered prayer.
I agree with grandmaK, you may have to do some mixing to get what you want. It's rare to find your exact shade in one bottle. I just wear loose powder now, it's so much easier
Try Prescriptives makeup. They custom blend makeup designed for you. Foundation, concealer, lip gloss and lipstick made to your liking. A Prescriptives Blender identifies your skins undertone and creates shadows %26amp; formulas that are perfect for you. It would cost you around 拢40 for a custom blend foundation. to find your nearest store click http://www.prescriptives.com/templates/door/us_finder_pop.tmpl
Covergirl works for me
Try Prescriptives cosmetics...they claim to match any skin colour with their custom blend foundation, concealer and powder.
I have that same issue. I went to Sephora and tried the bare minerals...they seem to have a shade for every skin color
CoverGirl TruBlend. Its sorta a mousse like texture. Its very easy to find your shade. All you have to do is get real close, and it looks flawless. And it doesn't look like you've caked on the makeup to hide little imperfections. It makes you look like your skin is just naturally that gorgeous.
When choosing a foundation, try looking in direct sunlight or ask a friend to help you. If unsure between two colors, choose the darker one because a lighter one will make you look pale. If you want a color that matches excatly to your skin tone, buy the two colors closest to your skin and mix them to achieve your color. You can always use the darker color to add depth to your face or the lighter one to highlight so you get a natural look. MAC always has great colors.
get 1 of those scary women at the makeup counters 2 doit 4 u in boots or sumwhere like that! they are actually pretty good at it!
Go to a department store and ask tell them you want to buy a foundation, they'll test out a few foundations on you till they find you're skin color. MAC do a wide variety as well as Clinique, YSL and Dior.
Or you can get tinted moisturizer if those brands are too costly.
Ok the best foundation to match your skin color is Covergirl Trublends!!!! Get the closest color to your skin and it will blend in to match your skin color! Works great for me!!!
go to a professional makeup place like benefit, mac, bobby brown, clinque etcc and ask them to help :) they'll do it for free as they'll be happy if you buy something :D
dont worry - there IS a shade for your skin out there somewhere!
xx
or try mixing one thats a teeny bit dark with moisturises, lightens it.
or buy an expensive one, Clarins, they will have a shade for everyone :)
You should go to a make-up counter at the mall and ask the ladies to find your shade. I know Clinique, Lacoste, and Estee Lauder do that.bacteria

Beauticians please answer what colour make-up would you suggest me to wear on my wedding day?? foundation etc?
i am getting married and i am wondering what is the best colour foundation,eye colour, blusher etc to wear so that it looks natural!! this question is mainly for a person who has done health and beauty or is a beautician!! please if your a beautician please give as much advice as you can thank-you!! i have a pale complexion, hazel eyes, and i have blonde hair!!!Beauticians please answer what colour make-up would you suggest me to wear on my wedding day?? foundation etc?
I would go for an ivory or nude foundation, a clear powder adn then darken with bronzer - as for blusher i would say a pale pale pink colour as to with your eye shadow.
If you want totally natural, go with a pale pink lip stick or gloss - remember though gloss is sticky andif yourr hair gets blown about it will stick to your lips.
Your best option is to go into Boots or a bit store and book anappointmentn for a FREE consultation - they will do your make up as if for your wedding day, you will then get a better idea of what it is you are trying to achieveBeauticians please answer what colour make-up would you suggest me to wear on my wedding day?? foundation etc?
Your foundation should match your complexion as close as possible, I would go with more of a pink or rosey blush and a pale pink lip color. If you want shadow a very ligh brown and dark brown to black mascara. Just don't over do your makeup and keep it soft. Best Wishes to you.
im not a beautician...but if ur pale..look for lighter foundations..i dont really like liquid foundations..they make me feel icky and i think the powder kind lasts better. i dont kno wat ur budget is here but i LOVE bare minerals. they r really great and wen i got mine(package deal!)
i got like beige 15 foundation and i got bronzer and everything. it works well for me..and if u have hazel eyes i suggest warm browns and dark greens for eyeshadow...goodluck!:))

foundation would be a dark color since people maybe taking pictures you won't look like a ghost
eyesahdow would be white or blue
blush lite pink sweet color

Anyone who knows the maybelline foundation colours?
I'm having a really hard time finding a new foundation the RIGHT colour.
The only near perfect match i've had is with Maybelline pure makeup and my colour was 03 natural ivory.
Could anyone suggest a foundation like this colour?
I know i should try them out in the store but if anyone can help before i go ... lol thanks! 10 pointsAnyone who knows the maybelline foundation colours?
maybelline has the same colors for all foundations, so what ever u are for their pure line, u are for the rest of their foundations, if u have a problem with one of them, go one up and/or down a shade and apply on ur jaw area and go outside to see if it is a match using a compact mirror...if u want a longer lasting foundation try superstay, i really like that one because it feels really smooth and looks matte yet velvety smooth after its applied and dries...almost like u just got photoshoped skin...i use pure as well...i really like loreals line, they have cool neutral and warm undertones in their true match collection, so u might just find ur perfect match there...for more expensive brands i suggest dior, they are really good on the fair skin matching as well as clinique and stila.Anyone who knows the maybelline foundation colours?
try Vichy Aera taint fluid mat foundation in clear ivory23. it is perfect! i used to have Maybelline foundation but it was a bit dry for my skin so now i use this one.
maybelline has numbers like light 1 light 2 light 3 medium 1 medium 2 .. so on.
natural ivory is around a light 3.. but u would have to try it on when u go to the shop to purchase.
go to CLINIQUE or a mall makeup counter, they will match you up to a real foundation or powder that you need. clinique has about 20-30 colours for diff skin types
Can't you just bring in the bottle and compare?
