What Foundation Should I Use? How Do I Find My Foundation Color?

Here is A general guideline for your foundation color:

Blythe- Lighter than Ivory. If you are really as white as a ghost; porcelain white, then this is for you.

Ivory - All-white skinned always burns (e.g RED HEADS)

Fair - This color is for women with very fair skin who tend to burn very easily and usually will not tan. Light- This color is for women with average light skin who tend to burn more than tan.

Medium - This color is for women with a medium skin tone who tend to tan easily and seldom burn. 80 percent of women will choose medium as their color.

Tan - This color is for women who never usually burn or are simply tan year round: Latinas, Pacific Islanders, Asian.

Deep/Dark - This color is for light African American women.

Sista-Girl - This is for the very deepest African American skin tones. Period.

Bisque = Concealer - This is a different name for the exact same color. A multi-purpose mineral makeup that covers all flaws. Can be used to highlight dark skin, to cover acne, scarring, beauty marks, uneven skin tones from pregnancy.
