I too am very pale. I use medium beige. The lighter shade made me look like a ghost. Then I finish with warmth. It's an all over type blush. I use it on my cheek bones. I have been using Bare Escentuals for over 10 years now. I wouldn't use anything else. The ones you see in stores that have mineral in their names do not compare. I'm always told I have beautiful skin, I'm 61 years old.

I also, am a pain warrior! I also, was on disability and left a very high paying position in medicine. I will pray for you and please know I do know how it feels to be in pain. I walk beside you as far as that goes. It sure is not fun and the older one gets the harder it is to cope and do things. But , we get through it!

I would get the lightest color. In the summer I a color a step up from the one I use in the winter. Hope this helps.it is best to get summer bisque and mineral veil to go along with the base color in my opinion. I have splotchy skin. So I use several bare mineral products and when I do my skin looks radiant.

I think it would depend on your skin time and the look you are trying to achieve. If you are wanting a soft look I really like the blonde dipbrow. I think any ash color would work. I believe there is an ash blonde color. :) I also hear chocolate is a nice color but it may be to harsh.

I'm sorry, but Bare Escentuals does not offer this shade name in its eye shadows. If you are not looking for an eye color, please reply with the type of product and/or the brand. I'm sorry that I could not assist you. katherine

I would say light. I have a light complexion with some redness and it blends well with my tone and evens it out. My daughter is very fair, so she uses a smaller amount and needs to be more mindful of blending around the hair line and down the neck a bit, but this is easily done using a light touch. She uses the formulation for acne prone skin, but the color is the same.

here is the color description and undertone ( based off of your skin type I would say go with SX06 if you are looking for more of a foundation and SX05 for more of a concealer but also google color swatch photos of SX06 and SX05 to compare to your skin color) 1. SX 01: true ivory for the lightest of skin tones 2. SX 02: warm ivory for very light skin tones 3. SX 03: very light with neutral undertones 4. SX 04: fair to light skin with warm undertones 5. SX 05: light skin with neutral undertones 6. SX 06: light/ medium skin with yellow/golden undertones 7. SX 07: light-medium skin with neutral to yellow undertones 8. SX 08: medium skin with very yellow/golden undertones 9. SX 09: medium beige with pink undertones 10. SX 10: medium beige with neutral to yellow undertones 11. SX 11: True medium beige tan with golden undertones (I would embrace this color in the summer!) 12. SX 12: Dark beige with dark yellow/golden undertones (there is a big leap between SX 11 and SX 12!) 13. SX 13: Dark rosy tan 14. SX 14: Medium milk chocolate brown with rosy undertones 15. SX 15: Dark rich chocolate brown 16. SX 16: Darkest chocolate brown

Beige is most popular and you change the shade to match your skin with the lightner/darkner included. Blush would be if you have more red in your skin tone.... honey would be if you have more yellow sking tones.

If you have really pale or fair skin get the lightest shade because it's really pigmented and dark so you don't want to look like you have mud all over your face LOL

Buy natural skin tone, not white (for lighter skin). Natural skin tone much better and I am very fair.

I am very fair skinned too and I used medium. If you feel it's to light you can add another layer of it, that's what I do!

080 would be way too light for you. I use 090 Deeper. 080 is much too light and ashy on me and I'm about the same complexion as Halle Berry or Rihanna. There is Deepest 095 the darkest colour available. It's similar to Revlon Colorstay in Cappuccino. Try that one.

I got the darkest, I believe, which is Tan. I love it! Unless you're swarthy complected, this would be fine. It covers so perfectly and evens out the skin tone without being heavy and obvious.

I don't have VERY pale skin, but I use the #1, the lightest color, as it blends well into my neck color.

I don't have a very pinky/white skin neither yellow/tan. I got the #2 and it's lighter than how it's shown on the pictures. I think #1 must be way too light

I'm olive skin tone and the medium was way too light.I guess it depends on the color of your skin.

Lindsay, We deal globally, and we would like to know what kind of ethnicity you are before giving you an answer, however here's some technical details of two colors we have 1. N21 cool vanila natural (for light to medium skin tone) 2. N23 cool base natural (medium to dark skin tone) Perhaps we could recommend the first color. Thanks, TheMiracle

it really depends on your skin tone. I use beige 1 because the ivory is too light.

I have pale skin as well and I bought the lightest color this came in and it was still to dark for my skin. I ended up giving it away :(
