HNY to all,
I'm hopeless at 40.... I need a medium to full coverage foundation. I have dry skin round my nose and make-up loves settling in creases, lines and my huge pores. My complexion is mostly clear but I do have a little redness around my chin, nose and cheeks.
I've tried umpteen and more primers. My skin care is good (my job causes my red patches and my sore-dry nose but aveeno is my friend here
). Primers do not seem to work for me.
Despite this I have settled on No.7 products, I like the foundation drops/stay perfect and airbrush away. My issue is I'm never colour matched the same . Each consultant recommends a different shade, the device frequently gives me a change between 3/4 shades. I'm told I'm cool toned one visit then warm the next. Although I realise colour match might be different between height of the summer and the depths of the winter, I've still been matched differently within a space of a couple of weeks.
I'm useless at deciding myself too. I'm not pale skinned but on the fairer side of the scale, I tan easily and rarely burn. I'm currently wearing the recommended warm beige as I was told I'm warm toned- it's bloody orange!!! Extremely orange on first app but I've managed to blend it enough to just about get away with it- but still I feel umpaloompah at age 40!
How can I get this right without continuously wasting money? I love the No.7 products and there must be a correct colour match there somewhere.
