It is expensive, but go to a make-up counter in a department store.  I know that Perscriptives actually matches the make-up to your skin.  You can try it on and try it on, until you find a perfect match!

Try Bare Minerals! It is wonderful!

Go to www.bareminerals.com or watch QVC and get the starter kit. I started wearing this makeup a year and 1/2 ago. I will never wear anything else. One foundation is $25.00 dollars but it will last you about two and 1/2 months. Good Luck to you!

Theres a new brand from Almay its called smart shade i believe. Its supposed to go on white but then turns into your skin color. Dont know if it works but i guess it worth a shot

Perscriptives is good for matching your makeup. They can also blend right there different colors in front of you till they get your match. Only thing is once you found your match you are going to pay alot for a very small amount of foundation.

Mac is another good place to go. I have had trouble for years getting my right foundation. Im Cherk, German, and English and my skin tone is very difficult to match.

What I did was once Perscriptives found my color I took it to Mac and to see if they had one that matched it. They did.

You get a good amount of foundation for little the price.
