Question

what color makeup foundation should i get?
my skin color is not white and its not medium its in between im verry bad at picking the color that would match me sometimes i look too pale and sometimes my face would look to dark for my body

Answer 1

You need to go to the mall and get it matched. You can go to Macy's, Robinson's May, Gottshalks. Some place like that. I prefer Clinique myself, but there are a ton of makeup counters to choose from. They don't charge either. It is very helpful. You can even have them show you what colors look best with your skin type. Eyeshadows, blush, lipglosses, etc. Plus it is fun. Tell you mom to take you and to bring along her credit card....lol j/k

Answer 2

Any professional make up counter can do a free "make-over" for you. They will not only match your foundation color, but the coverage that is right for you, as well as what is best for your skin type. They can also show you what colors will look the best on you for your complexion. Never buy eye color that match your eye color! They dont enhance at all, they compete with your natural eye color and just blend everything instead of making your eyes "pop" like they should.

Answer 3

I have quite pale skin, so I usually try picking the palest shade available, but for you, choose a brand you like, and open one of the bottles discreetly. Using a small amount, rub it into your skin (on your face, any other skin could be a different shade), and find a mirror. Usually a bottle of foundation will look darker in the bottle than on the skin, but each brand is different. Keep trying until you find one that matches. If you have an in between shade of skin, you can buy two bottles, one a darker shade and one a lighter shade, and mix them on your skin. Good luck!

Lancome and mac are really good about helping you get a color really close to your skin. Don't forget that the clothes you wear make a difference on the balance of the makeup you wear. I hope you are only a teenager living with your father because I am a straight male and know this knid of thing, you should too.

Answer 5

buff beige is what i use and i am fair skinned. it blends very good. Try Revlon Colorstay. Excellent makeup that stays on all day and covers wonderfully for a fraction of the cost of the expensive makeups.

Answer 6

it also depends on your eyes color, not only your skin. if you have blue eyes... then you can use blue or other lights colors, if your eyes are broun, you can use brown and black as well..., if your eyes are green, you can use green or lights colors, but it also depends on what you are wearing.
