Change of formula

Post by Eliz24 » Thu Oct 08, 2009 2:05 pm

I've got my foundation mix as 12 original white foundation to 1 WG.

I've got a few spots (although less now that I use SN skincare) so have ordered some medium foundation so that I can make a slightly stronger mix up to act as a concealer, but presume that as the medium foundation is 'heavier' that I can't just use the same 1:12 formula?

Any ideas or tips as to where I should start mixing?

Thanks

Liz

For Medium Coverage formula try 1:10. If it is too light, add one more. It will end up being pretty close to your formula with Original.
