Also, I do tend to get dry around my nose & mouth as well, so I'm not sure if I should go with the All Purpose.. and I do like somewhat of a natural glow to my foundation, not super matte.I would try Warm Gold or Olive. Warm Gold at about 1:8 (1 scoop color to 8 white) or Olive at about 1:12.KerryB678 wrote:Hi there!! I'd love to see if you could help me find my match. I'm pretty sure in these pictures I'm just wearing a light layer of mineral veil, or at least something incredibly sheer (hello, freckles!). Sorry the pics are sorta creepy, lol.. I was testing out a new camera.Currently in EDM I'm using Fairly Light Semi-Matte, in Bare Escentuals I wear Golden Fair, or sometimes Light if I have a tan, MAC NC20, or N2 in Face & Body. My face has always been fairly forgiving when it comes to foundation shades, I'm just awful at figuring out my undertone. I do tend to get some redness around my nose & mouth mainly due to allergies. Thank you in advance!!
I am not familiar with those colors, but I am guessing they are in the Warm Gold range. Try a 1:8 or 9 ratio.cosmeticcosmos wrote:I am trying to dupe my old EDM Foundation. I used to use Fairly Summer and Light (Golden). Usually I mix them together or just use Fairly Summer alone. Any ideas on how to recreate this color?

I thought it was ninety something but couldnt remember exactly!!
I guess I could have worked it out but my math skills are not so great!
(Plus, I should think about adding that number somewhere permanent...where were some of the places you checked first?)
I think you are going to like Olive the best, and it might help a little with the blushing. The only other one I can see is possibly Buttery Gold (1:9). I think Ebony will be too flat, and Warm Gold too red for you. In Olive try about a 1 scoop color to about 15 white. It will seem pale. I think good possibilities for your white base are Vegan and All Purpose. Both are vegan.shellbell wrote:I need help finding a match please! I don't know what base colour(s) to try or what my colour ratio should be.
I'm planning on trying the vegan foundation. My skin is pretty messed up... in the pics added my face is pretty clear, but in the last half year I've gotten acne again (sensitive/acne-prone skin), so I'm not sure if a certain base type is best for my skin (vegan/original/medium). My face is very often red/pink because while other people blush, my whole face turns red, but I'm not sure if that makes a difference for the right shade (I tried to find pics without redness, just the indoor ones are slightly). Also, I don't think I've ever had a tan, I just burn, and I have really sensitive skin. Sorry if I wrote too much, I'm clueless about my colour/tone!
...I believe I'm either wearing no foundation or just a translucent powder for all the pictures.
Thank you so much! I would have never figured that out on my ownJenW wrote: I think you are going to like Olive the best, and it might help a little with the blushing.
