Here I did my best matching face with neck (still different in the flesh but not too much), My neck is covered with TT also.
I have pink-cranberry eyemakeup - it compliments my green eyes, lips are nude (Shirley Temple) BBunny as a blush.
I love pink blushes but have problems wearing them, little more or wrong color and I look red.
Unblush doesn't wok for me((( It looks chalky, yellow SIAJ is too yellow. I wear an off-brand saffron yellow concealer all over, but it dries me out. So I need to replace it. Medium peach SIAJ works wonders under eyes)
Foundations don't turn darker on me. The best match I ever had was Light Amber from Terra Firma Cosmetics. It was my almost perfect color.
It seems I have told everything and even more, but if I missed smth important I'd love to add.

Die Marchen-
I think Buttery Gold. Do you have the yellow color booster, too? I would try Buttery Gold at about 1scoop color to about 7 white. It might need a scoop of Yellow Booster, too.

Hi JenW!

Just received my starter kit and am super excited! But not too sure what recipe to go for, if I'm about NC42. I'm a typically tan southeast asian gal I'm thinking warm gold? or olive? also, what portion? have got the samples for ivory and medium coverage, as well as the 6 base colours.

I've attached my picture (taken with flash at night, no recent daylight photos) - hope that helps!

cheers

Thanks, JenW!

Start with Olive. I don't think Warm Gold will be deep enough. Try Olive at 1 scoop color to about 4 white.

Hi Jen, maybe you could help me out too? With EDM I used to be a Sunkissed Fair in the Beige familjy, but I have no idea what to try out, and how to blend, now that I am changing to SN. My face tend to be a bit more pink than the rest of my body, and I don't want to strengthen the pink tone and make it look like I use a wrong colour. I attach a picture taken indoors with only sunlight as a lightsource. No flash.

I am not wearing any make up at all in the picture. Appreciate all help!

Warm Gold...... Try 1 scoop color to about 8 or 9 white.

Do you need more help in mixing? Generally for testing, I mix the recommended scoops on a jar without a sifter (start with 8 white in your case). You will need to shake it up very well with the lid on. Then I put some in a small bowl and blend a little more with my brush. To see if the color is even close, I usually test in lines perpendicular to my jawline. If you use a small brush, remember that they tend to apply heavily, where a bigger brush tends to apply more evenly. If something is not quite right about the color, describe it as best you can to me, and I am happy to help correct the color...or recommend what to try next.

Thank you very much!! I'm about to place my order now. I have a question though. If I order the Original Coverage starter kit, does that include a jar and measuring spoon, as the sample kits do, or would I need to order that separately?

Hi,

I'm Indian (a MAC NC 43-44) and I would classify my skin as medium-dark. Would love lure perfecting powder be a good finishing powder for me? I'm scared that the original perfecting powder may look slightly gray/ashy on me.

Also, will any of the SN cream blushes suit my skintone?
