Tete a tint, brown script, embark all mattes.. this is usually what I wear to work ED. Tete a tint on my lids, brown script and embark in the crease and I use my NC42 concealer as a highlight.

when i'm lighter in the winter, I mix my foundation with Srobe Cream, it makes it lighter and gives an awesome glow to my skin.

Try Bamboo...seriously. I LOVE IT and I think itll be matte and nude on your complexion too.

nc45 fix fluid
c7 fix powder (i have alot of acne scars to cover, once their all gone i should be able to use c6, since it matches my normal scar free skin)

blot powder dark
fix concealer in nc42 and nc45

the only blush i have so far is sweet as cocoa and i love it

Emote was limited edition. Try Blunt or Tantone blush.

I do the same. I use the NC45 and NC 50 foundation sticks and mix them- it is the best, creates such a beautiful finish. Depending on what kind of covergae I desire, I don't even have to use concealer with it. I also use the NC45 Select sheer pressed powder. The dark blot is my friend too!

I use the mineralize skin finish in deep dark, and the iridescent loose powder in golden bronze. When I am at the counter, I touch up everything with NC50 Studio Fix is I fget oily... And I use some true match covergirl concealer...i think...

I use them and love them- I use the NC45 and NC 50. Have you ever tried Blunt blush? It is my fave when I want a more natural look. it's just right

I love Blunt blush it does have a more natural look. I have tried Love Thing Mineral blush and you really need to be careful not to put on too much. You will end up looking like a clown.
