I will see if there will be an Olive Kit soon. We also might be able to do some kind of substition for you. I really recommend samples first, but I understand the issues with overseas shipping. I will get back to you.

Kirin,
If you order any one of the foundation kits and request in the comments box that you would like a full size of Olive in its place, they will make the substitution before it mails out. I will also be checking for your order to make sure there is a message about the substitution. We will also be putting up a full size kit soon.

Thanks. Once I will have made my make-up, I'll ask my hubby to make a pic and share it on here.

I would start at about one scoop Olive to 5 or 6 Ivory.

I wore it, I started with 5 ivory and it seems alright maybe a tad bit dark, i will see.
I love the texture, silky and satin matte not matte matte but not shimmery either! :-) Very nice!
Also absolutely love Peace, so soft, tart is great too, looks so natural!
