Hey! Try the "Caramel" shade in the "Normal/Dry" combination. I am an NC44/45 and it matches me PERFECTLY.

oh oh.. I think Clinique has a very limited color selection and especially in the yellow tones. Most of their foundations are pinkish. I disagree that the darker tones are yellow based -- they tend to look orangey on.

The best yellow based foundations imo are NARS, Stila, PX (in the YG ranges), and CD.

hi ladies..i am currently wearing revlon colorstay with soflex combination.oily skin formula in the shade toast with definite yellow skin tone..medium tan by edm is also a good match to me..
im thinking of trying the MAC MSFN..i heard that medium dark is a good match..what do you think?=)

[Sojourner]

^ I think that will work fine, Medium Dark is described as 'Caramel' so it sounds the closest fit to what you describe your skintone as...check the following thread for a recent discussion about MSFN shades:

MSFN Help w/ Shade - Medium Dark?

HTH!

I Use RMK which is great for yellow tones but doesnt go to very dark complexions i dont think but worth checking out!!!

Graftobian(my favorite foundation) and Makeup Forever.

Clinique has a really wide selection of colors, which I love, but they're a little expensive. I think for drugstore, L'Oreal True Match has a good Warm selection depending on your tone, but not dark enough for me. They have like a Caramel or something and I need more of a Light Cocoa. I'm so yellowy, it's impossible to get a perfect shade. Ugh.

Try Bobbi Brown liquid foundation. I'm brown but yellow toned especially in the Winter. BB GOLDEN has been my best match. It looks too yellow in the bottle but when I put it on it disappears ... perfect! Also in mineral Makeup, EarthenGlow Minerals SheriLynnn foundation is very yellow. Again, it looked too yellow in the container but melted into my skin perfectly.

Only one foundation has ever been yellow/olive enough for me and that was MUFE HD #153. However it doesn't provide enough coverage. Anyone have suggestions for a fuller coverage foundation thats about the same color?

Revlon colorstay is great but its too pink for me. So are MAC foundations.

[PrincessPresto]

Wow, so many great suggestions! I'm really glad that I found this site!

Indeed, thank you everyone

So far I've found Clinique to be the closest match to my skintone. I've been matched at MAC twice - NC was orange, and NW30 far too pink :/ Right now I'm using Clinique's superfit makeup in 07 (honey) and as expensive as it is, I'll pay it to have foundation that actually matches my colouring I'm going to check out some of the other things you've mentioned though, hopefully I can find some of them here
