Foundation Recommendations for extremely dark skin

[gitts]

Hi Guys,

I am NW50 in studio fix but my aunt is much darker than I am. What line can I look at to get some foundation for her?

MUFE HD in 185 or MAt + Velvet in 90

Iman stick foundation in earth 7.

What ever you go with make sure it matches her skin's undertone.

Becca makes some pretty deep shades although that brand is a little hard to come by. Maybe Bobbi Brown's "Expresso" shade would be deep enough? Also, you could look at Fashion Fair, although I can't speak to the quality of their products.

I second these suggestions. This color is sooooo deep.

See this is the reason why MAC shouldn't have discontinued NC65 studio fix...this what i had when i first started using MAC back in 01...and then shortly after they discontinued it, and then i went to clinique and some other really bad replacements, until i went back to MAC and NW50 ended up working for me...

i do hope your aunt finds something! try IMAN as the other girl mentioned, and also CoverFX at Sephora.

I second CoverFX as well as Lorac, which has a deep shade comparable to CoverFX. Bare Minerals has some deep options as well. HTH.

I'd suggest MUFE or Black Opal; their lines offer a wide range of color selection.

Black Opal and MUFE are good ones NARS offer a wide selection as well both in their sheer glow and sheer matte finishes..
