Foundation Color Help Please!

I am hoping some of you ladies can steer me in the right direction to create a foundation shade for my sister to try. She is Caucasian with a medium-dark skin tone, dark brown hair with reddish highlights, and very dark brown (almost black) eyes. She gets tan just thinking about the sun and never bu...

Re: Pics of furbabies

Love seeing all your precious fur pals and hearing the rescue stories. My guys were left behind when their owner moved in with someone who had an allergy. Bad choice IMO, but I'm glad they're with us now! Here are my friends Spike and Fuma - they're littermates and despite the funny pose, they both ...

Re: Alcohol: do or don't?

Since alcohol is basically a poison, it's hard to see how you'd lose much by limiting your consumption of it, or eliminating it completely. I think many people have strong feelings about drinking (or not drinking) because those of us who have the potential to be alcoholics can make life very, very u...

Re: Newbie Seeks Color Help - Pic Added

Wow - that was just unbelievably easy! My first order arrived today. I was pretty sure I was going to need Buttery Gold alone, but I got the pack with all the samples in it too, just in case. And I know my skin is sort of light medium, so I mixed up six scoops of Ivory and one scoop of Buttery Gold ...

Re: Newbie Seeks Color Help - Pic Added

Thank you both for your encourging replies! Yes, it is the "trying too hard" look that I'm trying to avoid. I love the shimmery, sparkly colors and continually remind myself to tone them down for work; I admit that when I'm home I let fly and wear whatever suits my mood. Most often that is...

Re: Newbie Seeks Color Help - Pic Added

Thanks for your input, Karen. I think I'll order the Medium Buttery Gold Starter Kit plus the sample kit of all the colored bases. I have had foundations that were too yellow, I have never known what to add to make them less yellow but not pink. I generally mix in a blue or lavender color corrector,...

Newbie Seeks Color Help - Pic Added

Hi all, I'm yet another newbie wondering what to order. I'm not new to MMU and have used Everyday Minerals (Winged Butter, Olive Fair and Olive Medium mix), Meow (Naughty Abyssinian) and a couple of other brands too. In Mac, I'm an NC30. My best matches are medium-light shades with yellow/beige unde...
