Hi everyone,
I've heard a lot of wonderful things about Silk Naturals, so I really want to give it a try. However, I'm really bad with matching colors and mixing and I'm not quite sure what kind of undertone I have and what would work for me...I've been told my skintone is a bit golden? I would really appreciate any help with suggestions on what foundation I should try~ as well as any other recommendations for concealers and whatnot if possible. I feel like I always look so tired and my skin color is uneven colored, and it makes me very unconfident...so I would love if I could find a good match in Silk Naturals!
Thanks so much. I included pictures~ with some or no makeup.

Hi!
Your pics are very good and they give me great color information. I can tell you are a Warm Gold right away. I definitely see golden tones, but not much yellow. I am thinking you will be in the 1 scoop color to 5-7 Ivory range. I still do recommend sampling Buttery Gold, as sometimes pictures don't tell the whole story. Since you have great skin, I would recommend the Original (lightest coverage) formula. It will even out your skintone and still be easier to match than the heavier foundations. I also recommend Tempt Tryst finishing powder to brighten up your skin, and Maiden lip gloss. If you are interested in blush, give Satisfied a try.
