Help with color matching
Posted: Sun Jun 10, 2012 10:10 am
Hello
First time for everything and this is a new one for me. I think my undertones are the either the golden or peachy range with overtones of pink due to very red check and sensitivity. Frankly, the undertone/overtone issue be not something I am familiar with. I mainly use mineral foundation to tone done my red cheeks and attempt to even out the color. I tan but now that I not longer live in the tropic I can burn. Northern European descent, blonde (now gray), green eyes, 50+ yo
I must be hard to match because I've sampled nearly every company out there and have only found two that seem to work and look natural. I have two foundations matches from other companies: Sephora D30 for summer and Sterling Minerals in Adonia for summer. Use to wear BE medium but dislike the course mill of their product. Been wearing Sephora for several years but they are discontinuing their Mineral Foundation and replacing with something new in June and I like the concept of mixing my own products.
I could use some help knowing where to start. Currently this is somewhat daunting but I'm sure with some help and practice this won't be difficult. Having trouble uploading a photo. Keeps saying the file is "invalid"
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
