  1. get a foundation that matches the colour of the skin on your hand, that's usually a pretty close indicator  


  2. I would suggest that you use the same color, but add some bronzer over it. The best bronzer to get is the nice mineral stuff; cheap bronzer just turns out orange, but mineral bronzer gives you a natural summer glow.

    It will work even better if you get the mineral foundation to go with it!

    Perfect, light coverage. Good for the skin and you don't need to use much. Sometimes the foundation and bronzer come in a set with blush or a concealer stick. It might seem pricey, but it is SO worth it and it will last longer than normal foundation.

    If you don't like the whole bronzer idea, go test some out on your wrist with a tester in a store. Make sure you let it set because sometimes the color changes when it mixes with the natural oils in your skin. And look at it in both natural, and artificial light sources because it might look okay indoors, and then be the totally wrong color once you step outside. You want your foundation to be just a BIT darker than your current skin tone.

  3. i hate it when girls

    tan

    i think pale is

    very pretty

    but im not a dude

  4. if ur new one is a little too dark u can always mix a little of the old shade with it,

  5. try going for a shade darker than your skin when you hold the foundation color up to your face, trying to match the same color by looking in the mirror. but remember what i said, try going for a shade darker. but if you want your skin to be somewhat lighter, then you can go ahead and go for a little lighter colored foundation. if it makes more than a little bit of difference then chances are you will have a white and weird looking face.  

  6. If youre using Covergirl,try going up to Medium Light.

    I havent been able to find any shades above buff beige in Covergirl in stores, only on their site.

    Also, Walgreens allows you to return makeup, so no wasted money!

    :)

  7. blue is a very nice color to me.

  8. It depends on what brand you use. I use Sand (Rimmel London). It is darker then buff beige and I wear it now that I have been tanning

  9. i would get it and try it because if you never try you will never know
