I was thinking of getting it, as apparantely it covers blemishes well. At the moment I use a foundation that makes me look rather pale and I dont really like that look, but my friend suggested that I get the 'golden' shade of the Max Factor foundation, as It will make my skin look slightly tanned. I have kinda pale skin, but not as pale as ivory, so should I get golden?

Please help!

  1. Roxy, while I don't have any experience w/the brand you mention, I do have experience w/aularale.com/7002; and my suggestion is to get a good skin care regimen going to rid yourself of blemishes/imperfections rather than worrying about covering them.  The vitamin c serum and the fade gel work wonders.  The foundation is fantastic as it matches the undertones in your skin  and sometimes you can wear up to 3 different shades (depending on what look you're trying to achieve).  In addition to a good skin care regimen, eat lots of fruits and veggies, drink lots of water and take a good vitamin/mineral supplement.  You'll see results quickly.


  2. No it doesn't cover blemishes well. They say it does but they would, wouldn't they?

    Golden is not quite right. It's more orange, like a satsuma.

    I think you look lovely just as Nature made you.

  3. I Use It,

    I Wouldnt Go For A Shade That Is A Few Shades Darker Then Your Natural Skin Tone,

    Your Face Will Look Orange And It Wont Blend With Your Neck Very Well.

    You Should Go For Maxfactor MiracleTouch Foundation.

    It Is A Lot Better Than The Colour Adapt And You Can Add A Bronzer On Top To Give Your Face More Of A golden Glow.

  4. you should never get a make up shade that is darker than your original skin colour. that will only look like fake tan, and if it is uneven it will look even worse.

    what you can do is go to a shop, not wearing make up, and use a bit of the 'golden' shade from the tester - so you'll see if it looks good.

    I always wanted to try Colour Adapt, but they don't have the right shade for me - my skin is about Maybelline's Rose Ivory (very light) and most brands don't have such a light tone :-(

    I recommend you a Mineral Make up - they don't cause breakouts and they cover pretty good.

  5. What you need to do is find out which one matches absolutely best with your skin tone. That will take some trial and error. You need to test it by swiping a small bit on your lower cheek, above your jaw bone. Blend it in, and look at it in natural light. You can do this with several shades side-by-side. Whichever one vanishes into your skin is the one for you. Too light is bad, but so is too dark. You want one that matches perfectly.
