    Hi All,

    Question regarding foundation.Will it make our skin tone a bit darker than natural complexion? I always have this doubt about foundations....'m still trying to find the right one for my skin tone.

    I got my makeup done in Sephora and once in Macys.
    It looks good when they apply make up on my face but when I come home and do it myself, I never like myself and end up washing it off.:bonk
    Will this happen to you girls? Please help!:drowning

    But I love doing some daily eyemake up and apply foundation for work.

    Hi Anusuya, Which shade are you and which Intensity do you use? I am planning to get one. Am a little confused with the shades. My Natural face looks darker than when in photo. I am confused as which shade to use.

    Well, for my oily and acne-prone skin, I really liked Milani Smooth finish Cream to powder foundation in drugstores like Happy Harry's/Rite Aid etc. I got many compliments about my skin being very clear in parties.

    I didn't try Iman brand yet but it's especially created for colored woman with yellow and warm undertones.

    My wishlist includes Mac and Dermablend (now that someone here recommended it). I will update as I find new favorites.

    Dermablend is very thick so you have to be very careful using it or face will look caked and artificial. It is for people who have scars on their face. I have a scarred cheeks from acne picking, I use a little to cover it and then use another foundation all over it and my face. The have a new bermablend power to match the foundation which I have not been able to find in the stores. The two available look horrid. Total waste of money. Just use translucent powder.
