New and confused

Post by Susanna » Sat Sep 19, 2009 10:28 am

Hi everybody!
I´ve been trying for months now finding my coulor from EDM. I must have tried 15 different foundations and settled with Buff Beige Neutral. It isn´t the "perfect match" (a bit too light) though but the best so far.
All the beige is way too yellow, the cools are too pink, the golden too yellow. I even tried too mix them, just imagine all the jars too mix 15 foundations in diffrent shades ;) .
Do You have any suggestions for recepie for me since I´m going to place an order. (This is so fun except that I can´t order all of the products I see)

I think you should try Olive color base. It is pretty dark, so start at a 1 scoop color to 7 scoops Ivory and add Ivory from there.
