Missha B.B. cream shades?

I’ve just ordered 21 - that l had hoped was fair, but not chalky white?
Some reviews have said it is still very pale. I’m fair with slightly pinky undertones...
Anyone use and have knowledge?
Thank you 😊

I use No. 13 so to me 21 would be like fake tan! I googled it before I bought and looked at different shade swatches on bloggers arms to get an idea of how the shades would look on me. I think it might also be on Findation

I use shade 21. It's light but not chalk white or anything.

I'm a red head with pinky tones. I think. 21 is perfect on me. Looks darker on my hand but on face best match ever.

Hello strawberry
My tube is arriving on Monday - l decided on 21 from watching a few YouTube videos...
I hope that works. All l know is that lm not the very palest in foundations. The very pale ones turn my skin chalky.
Thanks for checking! Smile

I'm the same. Despite being a strawberryblonde and pale as feck the very palest make me look dead. This is the best I have tried shade wise. It's also lovely to apply as it's very moisturising.
I still try other stuff but always come back to it.

Mine should be arriving tomorrow Strawberry
I can’t wait to try it. I’m especially happy it has such a high SPF. :)

Hello Strawbery my no21 arrived today! I’ve tried a bit ... l’m hoping it isn’t too pale?
Hopefully as l know it ‘adjusts’ - l will be ok. I think 23 is the next darkest?
Anyway, it smells lovely and l’m happy enough to use it as sun protection! :)

I think it's the texture I love. Do t have to worry if I have forgotten to moisturise

Hello strawberry!
Got mine and have been using it fir s few days now. I really like it. I’m not using any other foundation. Beforehand, l moisturise with The Ordinary NMF mixed with Squalene oil. I will be adding an SPF too, as apparently we don’t use enough in the B.B. cream to get the full benefits of the Factor 42.
I use a bit of Laura Gella ‘ Brighten-and Balance’ powder on top!
The 21 warms up from the ‘grey’ and just looks like my skin.🌸

Perfect. Looks great. Your skin is lovely. @omBreROSE
In the absence of cash I am using a primark setting powder but it's fab.
