Hey BlowFarAway,
Can I ask what you used in EDM? 1 ebony, 8 ivory seems to be pretty much my match, but I'm a little worried it might be turning pink by the end of the day. That could just me being paranoid.. or my irritated skin.
Thanks in advance!

I was wearing Sandy Fair/Ivory 1:1
I could get away more with just Ivory than just Sandy Fair, the Ivory PP looked a bit yellow/dark by the end of day

Jen, I am pretty confident that the 2Ebony:11Ivory is working for me, but that is with the original formula Ivory. I now have a sample of the medium coverage Ivory and am just wondering how the change in formula will affect the color blend?

I think I found my shade! 1 Ebony: 6 Original Ivory, and it's pretty much perfect! It doesn't quite cover my acne scars though, so I wanted to use the Medium Ivory instead. Can someone tell me about how many of those I would use for 1 Ebony? Thanks!
Just a guess. Would it be like, 1 Ebony: 3 Med Ivory?

Chrystalyte,
It will be more like 1:4 or 5. It never really quite works out exactly, but usually in going from Original to Medium, you just subtract an Ivory or two for the lower numbers, and two or three for the bigger ones.
