hai all!
i'm sure this isn't just a WOC issue, but i figured this would be the best place to ask:
i'm NW50 and i use MAC's Mineralize Skinfinish in Deep Dark (the "natural" one).
i work two jobs almost every day and by the second one, my skin is shinier than a Burger King patty. so, to touch it up, i use oil sheets and brush on the skinfinish. i used to just use the studio fix pressed powder, but i felt that was too heavy for touch-ups.
lately, i've been noticing that my skin looks red after applying the skinfinish-- terracotta, if you will. i thought it was the bathroom's harsh lighting, but i noticed just today that in my own bathroom at home my face color did change. i don't know if it's a result of my skin being oily and changing the color, or if the skinfinish itself-- however meant for darker complexions-- was not meant for my shade.
if any of that made sense, i was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this and/or has any recommendations of what i could use instead.
thanks in advance, and have a nice day
