This is 1:1 ebony/base + 1:1 warm gold/base.
The precious little star of the show is Miss Texie Kay, whom I'd just met that day

Hey, Mikie! It is so cool to see you! That furbaby of you frined's is a real cutie! Also, thanks for all of your wonderful color suggestions. I'm going to have to start taking notes!

Other matches I have are: Blusche Butterscotch Toffee, Pure Anada Ivory Chinook, MMBB Olive Beige and Lumiere Light Neutral in Luminesse.

I mixed my Silk Naturals foundation with 12 scoops of Ivory and 1 scoop of Warm Gold. I added also 1 scoop of Unblush, and it seems to melt onto my light olive skin even better, while toning down the redness on my cheeks.

My best mix seems to be 1-ebony, 1buttery gold, 3-base(white). it melds perfectly into my skin and probably won't need much adjusting for summer as I do avoid sun exposure without sunscreen. I can't believe how easy it was to get the perfect color! I normally wear fyrinnae-sunstone, or be medium mixed with a touch of light, pure luxe warm cream is my best match up until I mixed my SN!

Just got my sample foundation kit, and I'll be mixing tomorrow, but I'm not sure... Hopefully you can see my complexion on my profile pic: I'm kinda pinkish and fair. However, I do seem to have some slight yellowish undertones, aside from the pink ones, and when I do tan (I wish), it seems to be olive-like. Should I try mixing ebony and warm, maybe a bit more of the ebony? I only used BE before, and I'm Fairly Light. Thanks!

I would be a Fairly Light myself. I can usually pull off the Ebony when fair and the Warm Gold when tanned. I do at times like to do a mix of the two, but for ease of mixing, I keep both foundation tones on hand premixed. It is easy to dust on a little WGMix to warm up my skintone. For Ebony (it does run a little lighter than WG), I use a 1Ebony:8 White. You may end up needing to add more white. For Warm Gold a 1WG:10-11 White. Again, this is a good starting point. I do use less white once summer rolls around at Ebony 1:6 and WG 1:8.

Have fun testing!

Hi girls,

I am quite new to mixing minerals. I am currently testing my colors in Everyday Minerals and wanted to try out Silk Naturals. I am finding Everday Mineral's Olive Fair as my perfect shade. Anyone here who can help me how to achieve the Olive Fair color for SN?

Thanks in advance
