I'm in need of some help. I have a tester of mufe in shade 125. And it looks nice on my skin but I think it's a tad too dark. Would 118 be better for me? 123 is way to orangy for me, and i find 120 a bit yellow.

I had the same problem, I tried 125, too dark, and 120 really yellow! I tested 118 and it was a ashy, grey-ish on me. 117 was the perfect match for me. It may be for you,too unless you have more natural-beige undertones and not yellow like me.

I'll just add myself to the vast following MUFE HD Foundation has. Although Chanel Vitalumière is my HG foundation, I love using this one when I want a bit more coverage. It definitely lives up to its hype, and there's such a massive selection of colours! I imagine it'd be difficult for a person not to find a colour that matches them given the variety. I'm shade 118, and it matches my skintone perfectly.

I recently picked up some samples of the foundation (I've had the powder forever) and was wondering what brush everyone recommends using with it?

Ditto! Chanel vitalumiere aqua is my HG now as well but I still go back to MUFE HD when I know i'll be photoraphed and want more coverage. I wear the same shade as u, 118, btw :)

I do love MUFE HD foundation as I believe it's the best makeup I've tried but it appears as though I am between a #173 and #177...does anyone else have this issue?

I use the MAC DARK Mineralizer with the #173...but I will try what you are suggesting with the inivisible powder and see what happens. Have you ever tried mixing 173 and 177?

If you're in-between shades, try mixing one of them with a colored primer to add or detract warmth or cool tones. If you're between 173 and 177 try using the pink or yellow primer to find the best match. You can also try this with the other color correctors. Blue is going to make it lighter and brighter whereas yellow is going to make it darker and more yellow. If you need a combo of blue and yellow use the green primer.

You can also use the HD Elixir to thin out the foundation, making it more of a tinted moisturizer.

I was going to buy HD foundation for me ,but the mufe counter at Sephora didn't have tester for 117.I tried 115 and it looked good on me .But I didn't buy it because I know 115 has pink undertones and I have yellow undertones.

I own 173, but like the previous poster I'm b/w 173 and 177. (I feel like I'm always b/w foundation shades.) 173 is a little too olive for me past the checks and around the chin, but 177 is a little dark for the brighter parts of my face. When you say mix it with a primer would I have to swirl the primer into the product or would applying the primer then the foundation have the same effect? I realize I could just purchase the 177, but a) I'll likely lose some color soon with summer coming to an end; b) this foundation is pricey and I don't use it daily; and c) for me mixing colors is a pain in the butt. I'll end up wasting product and never duplicate the right color consistently - especially rushing in the morning before work.
I'm a makeup minimalist.

I've used this on and off while trying out different foundations and I keep coming back to this. I use #123 and the yellow undertones in it match my skin very well. I do get shiny after a few hours, but that's expected. Even though the consistency of this foundation is thin, it covers well and can be layered for more coverage without feeling heavy or cakey. I always set this foundation with a loose powder by patting it then brushing off the excess. I've brushed powder to set it in the past and to me it seemed like it moved the foundation for me. Totally worth it especially with the IMATS discount I got.

For reference, I am NC30, 205 in MUFE Duo Mat, #30 in Cargo Blu Ray powder and Medium Beige in NYX's Stay Matte, But Not Flat powder foundation.

MissTT-- you want to swirl the primer color of your choice with the HD foundation. This has an entirely different effect than applying the primer to your face and then adding your foundation on top. You may have to play with the amount to get the color just right.
