foundation help

Post by cristahl939 » Thu Aug 28, 2008 8:16 pm

hi. i was wondering if anyone here can help me choose the right foundation color or mix. i havent bought yet because im torn between buttery gold and warm gold(maybe even the new colors). ive been using medium tan in EDM but it isnt HG status with me. its tad too light especially with this california weather i tan easily. i might be an olive medium or sandy medium in edm but i have yet to try it. im a filipino female and i have a caramel complexion. i tan easily and im in between a NC42/NC43 in MAC and a medium dark in their mineralize skinfinish.

if any one could be any help that would be great!

Hello cristahl939! Welcome to our forum! From your description, I would lean more toward Warm Gold. However, if you are purchasing samples, I would recommend a try of the Buttery, too. The Buttery also has a golden tone with more yellow than the Warm does. I really do think you will fall more in the Warm Gold, though.
