Help with color matching

[beachedsiren]

Hello

First time for everything and this is a new one for me. I think my undertones are the either the golden or peachy range with overtones of pink due to very red check and sensitivity. Frankly, the undertone/overtone issue be not something I am familiar with. I mainly use mineral foundation to tone done my red cheeks and attempt to even out the color. I tan but now that I not longer live in the tropic I can burn. Northern European descent, blonde (now gray), green eyes, 50+ yo

I must be hard to match because I've sampled nearly every company out there and have only found two that seem to work and look natural. I have two foundations matches from other companies: Sephora D30 for summer and Sterling Minerals in Adonia for summer. Use to wear BE medium but dislike the course mill of their product. Been wearing Sephora for several years but they are discontinuing their Mineral Foundation and replacing with something new in June and I like the concept of mixing my own products.

I could use some help knowing where to start. Currently this is somewhat daunting but I'm sure with some help and practice this won't be difficult. Having trouble uploading a photo. Keeps saying the file is "invalid"
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Hi, and Welcome!

I am looking at the pics you emailed to be sure, but I am pretty sure the file size of the pics (the first two in the email for sure!) might have had something to do with not being able to load them here.

Just so others have the info associated with those two shades that worked for you...I would start with Warm Gold. I think about 1 scoop color to about 7 or 8 white. If it is not pink enough, add a scoop of Pink Booster. I don't think you need the Pink Booster, though, and might want to consider Yellow Booster to help with the redness. I did notice that you are likely more yellow than you might think and the pink might mostly be from sensitivity. Another great product for redness is Equalizer.
