powder tone

Post by Tamara » Tue Nov 22, 2011 1:03 pm

Hi could you help me with the powder tone? I am not sure the picture is good enough, I am fairly pale and like my skin pale. I used Clinique loose powder in the lightest tone they had and it looked good. I now have some redness in the cheeks that i didn't have at the time the pic was taken. Thanks for your help!

Are you looking for a finishing powder or foundation?

For our finishing powders, you probably want the white/translucent versions. If you want to blend a foundation, try Olive with 1 scoop color and about 16 scoops of white. For the white portion, I would go with Original or Vegan formula as others might be to opaque.
