I think Buttery Gold should work for you on its own with Ivory for an EM Golden Light. Also, I could use a few more details on how you feel it is off. Is is not yellow enough, is is too light, is it too brown? Is it not mixed well? What coverage level are you using?

tt ratio seems too white for me. it seems to hv a slight whitish cast on my skin. it dun look natural at all....
im usin semi matte for edm n original formula for SN.

It sounds like you should just add some more color. It might take a few tries on your part to get a match.

Ratios are very much something you will have to tweak on your own. I can really only give you a starting point since I have not seen you in person. Pictures taken in good light still only tell part of the story. Even though I was once a customer of the line you mentioned, I really don't know their foundations all that well except the ones I tried. I can only guess based upon their descriptions and what I know of our line.

so i should jus add in more buttery gold n try it out?

Yes. Try to add less than a half scoop Buttery Gold. It makes your ratio hard to determine using half scoops, but at least you can tell if it is in the color range.

At some point I would start over and try 1Buttery:6Ivory. If it is too dark, add a scoop of Ivory. It is best to have a recipe that can be repeated.
