Hello, I'm in the search for a new foundation and hears about Silk Naturals on another forum. I could use some help to say what color I should have.
My boyfriend helped me with the picture and would not take it unless I smiled...
No flash or so just daylight.
Hit me!

I'd get the sample kit + peach and maybe an extra sample baggie of ivory (99 cents and always useful). I want Jen to take a look at your pic here, but you look a bit of both warm gold and peachy to me.

Hi, I think Warm Gold is the closest. You probably need it at about 1 scoop color to 9-11 white.

Thanks for the fast answer!
So now I order "Original Formula Warm Gold Starter Kit" and try it? It's always exiting to try new makeup

You might want to consider ordering samples just to be sure it is right for your skin in color and ingredients.

Now I've tried, 1 scoop Warm Gold to 9 scoops white was perfect!
Thanks a lot!
