Choose the right foundation shade for your skin

1. Try shades under a white light. Suggestions: white room with fluorescent lighting, a tiangge during a cloudy day, or your favorite department store.


2. Select at least three shades that matches your real face color.

3. Compare the three shades by lining them on your right or left cheek-jawline area. The one that disappears like you didn’t put it on is your best friend, er, best match.

4. One tip: It would be good to find two shades of foundation – one that matches your real color and one that’s one or two shades darker than your original color. The reason for this is for you to have the right foundation during the summer, after getting your tan. :) You might want to get one that’s two shades darker if you’re planning to stay longer under the sun.

Stay pretty!
