Hi
I’m looking for a ‘unicorn’ skin tint - wondering whether anyone has any suggestions?
I’m a pale, cool (muted/greyish) olive. Dark hair, dark hazel eyes, pale olive-ish skin but with cool undertone/ pink cheeks. I suit cool mauve and lilac blushers as most other colours pull either too warm or too saturated on me.
I’m a Dark Winter for those that are into their ‘seasons’. Mostly I think I look like a creature of the night, or some sickly thing that’s been kept in a dungeon for years 🤣
I used to like NYX Skin Veil in Vanilla Nude but that was discontinued ages ago. Strangely enough, the Aldi tinted moisturisers aren’t too bad but they’re only sporadically in the shops and they’re very light coverage.
I’ve tried Ex1 foundation as it’s touted for olive skin but I’m really not keen on the shades or the formula. The 1.0 shade is a bit too pale (maybe ok for the depths of winter), but 2.0 pulls too dark and yellow, especially once it oxidises. I also don’t like the chalkiness/ heaviness of it.
Most foundations/ bases are just plain wrong - too orange, too yellow, too pink. And yes, I know I sound like Goldilocks!
I’m lucky to have quite clear skin so just want something to even out my complexion rather than full coverage, not too matte and not too glowy.
Could anyone recommend something suitable?
