Foundation

Have you ever had to try on many colors on foundation to see if it truly matches your skin or to see if you can match it or blend it on your skin to make it “pass” as your shade? You thought you were the only one right? Well nope you are not. Sooo many of us have gone through this. Most times it is not advertised what shades can be a closer shade to your own. Yes you will always have to test to color match but wouldn’t it help if we were shown shades with more variety that closely matches your own that you can pick from? It is crazy to be dark skin having to choose from a light shade and dropping a tiny amount to see if we can make it “pass” as an acceptable shade. This is sad right? Wouldn’t it be better if we had more than 3 choices of brown or 3 choices of medium instead of picking from 8 choices of light? Well hopefully there will be a time that we will be able to have better choices of shades no matter if you are olive tone, pale, red under tone, tan tone, brown tone or if you have tones that are not the same on different part of your skin. Your shade(s) are different and should be enhanced beautifully not questionably.
