Re: Need Foundation Help? Please post here.......

Adding TT might do it without adding much more olive.....and it will add a little glow to your foundation in the process.....a little is a good thing. Definitely give it a try. Maybe a scoop or two to your overall Olive mix. I might be a little slow right now, could you clarify what you mean with &...

Re: Need Foundation Help? Please post here.......

sima- I can't really tell from the picture which is better....they both look pretty good. I know things sometimes look differein in real life. I think the best way to control the amount of yellow would be to go with the Olive mix and add Yellow Booster (add a little at a time until it is right...li...

I also think it is a little too yellow, but that could be remedied by adding a little more white, as yellow is the first color to dilute out (red/pink is usually the last, brown somewhere in the middle). I do think Buttery Gold or O...

Re: Need Foundation Help? Please post here.......

Hi Sima, and Welcome to the forum! I think you are on the right track with the Buttery Gold. As for the turning pink......is it possible it is not olive enough?

Re: Need Foundation Help? Please post here.......

Hi everyone, I'm new here and have purchased my first sample kit. I'm very excited about the SN way to mix your own blend, excellent idea!
