Differant foundation colour?

iv tried the testers of foundation (light,dark and fare(medium colour) and im lighter than light


what should i useDifferant foundation colour?
Hi the only one that matches my skin tone is from Tesco made by Barabra Daly make up in the oil free foundation in porceline or the Almond shades from avon,every other light colour like ivory is far to orange for me


The tescos is fantastc and so is the avon, I dont buy any from the high street anymore as they only have certain shades yet if you go online they have loads of shades in the same make.





I got a maybelline 16 hour colour stay foundation, in boots they had ivory as the lightest and in superdrug they only had a darker shade as well as other darker shades, I went in to boots to get the ivory it was far to orange I went online and saw they do do a pale one but our shops dont stock it.





So I use avon or tescos barbra daly make up range as it the only colours that are not too orange for my pale skin.Differant foundation colour?
You should always buy your foundation a shade lighter than your natural skin colour, as it tends to absorb oils from your face and turn darker. Try a mineral founation, like L'Oreal or Maybelline. Also you can get a free consultation at the make up counters of the big department stores like Debenhams and House of Fraser. They can point you in the right direction and you can use the info to find something similar that might be more affordable if you don't want to splash out on their brand.
dainty doll do foundations for very pale skin so i would reccomend you try one of them. they are available from asos and jellypongpong.com. choose the fair option if your skin is very light.

select a foundation that is appropriate to your skin type and the coverage you wish to achieve. the colour should match your skin, disappearing when blended well. shake the bottle well to mix the formula. or, simply open a stick or compact version. place a small amount of foundation on the back of one hand. dip your makeup sponge or your middle finger into it. apply to the center of your face: cheeks, forehead, chin. blend out to your hair and jawline until the foundation vanishes. pay special attention to blending around the nose, mouth and jawline. set the foundation with loose powder immediately following application.





or foundation can be spot-applied to the areas where you need to even out your skin tone. remember to set your face with loose powder after application.





if you can, i would definately reccomend getting professionally colour-matched at a department store. make sure to check the foundation in natural light though. select a formula that is right for your skin type. people with dry skin should avoid wet/dry and stick foundations. people with oily skin should look for formulations that are oil-free and will need to powder after applying foundation.





another way is to dot foundation onto your face and then blend using a latex sponge. these are quite cheap and can be bought practically anywhere. these sponges allow for a polished, natural look. if you are allergic to latex, try using a natural sea sponge.





remember, foundation does NOT have to be applied all over your face. just target the problem areas. if you blend properly and have a foundation that properly matches your skin tone, you will not look blotchy.





hope this helps

You could buy some makeup sponges(triangle ones are best, you can buy them from pound world) and some bright white foundation, which you can get from gothy shops or websites for not that much, and mix it with your normal foundation on the sponge.
go into boots or something and go to the make up selection.


test the loreal mineral true type skin thing and use ne of them


or just use some light powder? it depends also on what your comfortable wearing. Good luck.
i use loreal true match foundation in 'rose ivory'. it's lighter than porcelain.
Try looking for a shade called porcelain =)
Use one that matches your skin tone. If you are pale wear bronzer/blusher for a nice glow.
