Re: make-up | | Well actually, when you're getting make up in a store (and they're testing it on your face), a lot of the time you wont get the proper color. The lighting inside is darker than outside; and outside there's generally more contrast (lighting wise)...So if you get something too dark, the blending (or lack of) will show outside..where as a tint lighter than your actual skin color can blend in both settings.
But if you're planning on only being seen inside, go with a shade darker.
I have a faint tan, so I use Ivory (I forget the brand name), it's a tad lighter than my skin and works perfectly. |
