make up advice from Chinese mums

[boogiewoogie]

Hello. I've posted on style already but didn't get much response so I'll try my luck here.

What brand do you use? I can never find a foundation or concealer that matches my skin tone (I'm Chinese).

i found a great one from SpaceNK for my wedding. it was amazing and completely blended into my skin - u could not tell i was wearing it.

i would go to the beauty counters at department stores and get them to recommend something. i think some companies can also mix foundations to get the right colour.

i also find that i have to buy 2 colours - one for summer and one for winter as i go quite brown in the summer.

good luck - HTH

ps the foundation from spaceNK was about £60!!

Thanks for that Autumn lover, anyone got a cheaper alternative?

Have you tried MAC? I've used MAC and Bobbi Brown - they're not as pink IYKWIM

Don't know how often you use foundation but I don't use it that often so find it lasts a L O N G time.

Ask the girls on the counter to put it on your face and tell them you will come back after you've looked at it at home and under different lighting conditions eg. outdoors etc

What brand was that autumn?

Hi mellow

really expensive brand i talked about is SpaceNK. it really is a great foundation - very light and comppletely blended into my skin. HTH
