Make up experts - something to add to my foundation to darken it?

I’ve used a little fake tan on my face so it’s a bit browner than usual, which means my foundation that’s quite pale looks a bit weird on it. Is there a blob of something (not another fake tan) I can add to my current foundation to darken it a little? (I don’t want to buy a darker version of my foundation as it’s expensive). Thank you! Xx

I’d buy the cheapest/darkest foundation and just mix that to get the right shade or a cheap liquid contour.

Bronzing drops! There's some by a brand called Drunk Elephant, I also got some in the Primark beauty section recently. You just mix with either your foundation or a moisturiser to make it a bit darker. I have them for when I've fake tanned or been on holiday.
