I've been looking for some new foundation to try out, especially something full coverage to wear when I go out.
I swear I have wasted money on so much foundation! I think I am NC45. I had originally got matched at NC50, but it's too dark. However, it is sooooo damn hard finding a foundation that works for me. I know I have yellow undertones but everything yellow isn't yellow enough, or if it is, it's not meant for my deep brown skin. I've heard of "golden" undertones but I don't exactly know what that is. I might be neutral but I'm not sure.
Revlon Colorstay C/O in Caramel - a tad too orange, but an Ok fit.
Sacha Cosmetics Second Skin - Perfect Honey is too light and Cocoa Beige is too dark and red
Urban Decay Naked Skin - 9.0 is soooo ashy and 10.0 is too dark and too red,
Becca Ultimate Creme Foundation in Tobacco - It's the closest shade besides Revlon so far, but it's still a tad off. The coloring is a bit too orange I think.
Estee Lauder Double Wear - 5w2 Rich Caramel - shows up red against my very yellow chest and neck.
I guess that's not TOO many foundations but I think I'm probably gonna have to mix foundations for the rest of my life LOL And everything shows up too red or orange Does anyone else have this problem? I just need someone that can relate to me! Also, let's talk undertone and color.
