I'm a NW50 in mac studio fix fluid which color would work best for a bright under eye? I'm going back and forth between SX12 and SX13.

Hello, Alicia. Either one will be fine. It just depends on how light you want your highlight to be. The product is amazing and smooth and you only need to use a small amount. It will last you for a long time.

I wear nc44 mac studio fix foundation with aucoin sx11 concealer and it gives me a bright under eye that's not too light. If you try sx12 you could always darken it with your foundation if needed. But if you try sx13 it may be too close to your skin tone and not give you the desired bright eye effect you're looking for.

Works great for both! People at tanning salon I go to even asked what I use, they said I always look so dark. Well worth the price!!

It depends on the amount but I think ashy. I just felt like it wasn't as yellow as people made it seem. Only when I used a yellow/mustard concealer and that on top did it come out more yellow. My skin tone is probably Taraji Henson. I would try the other Ben bye colors as well. I just purchased topaz and camel to see if that's better on my skin tone. I know it will be better on darker tones.

Hi Debra I would buy the Ocher color - works for Fair to Medium . I am fair skinned with dark circles under my eyes. This product is amazing . No dark circles and no caking .. Its the best

I suggest you youtube reviews. I have oily acne prone skin. This foundation does not break me out. The serum leaves me a perfect dewy finish. The healthy mix feels matte to me. However, these both feel lightweight. Great foundation! I bought both. Shades should be the same, but some sellers may not have the same shades available for you to purchase. There is a other bourjois foundation called 123 perfect. I have not tried yet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNgt-GRu1jA Here is one review.

I questioned that also, the reply was no! It was suggested I buy the one with crystalline. Almost finished my first bottle, sometimes I see a lot more color. I'm not there yet, still optimistic though. Wish you all luck!

I wear Mac NC40 and the Bronze BB cream is a little dark for me but blends in well. I usually blend it with a lighter BB cream that I have and works well. However, I don't recommend the Bronze BB cream if you have oily skin. I have very oily skin on my forehead and nose. I applied this BB cream alone with no other foundations and after 2 hours, my whole face looked really shiny. Even my cheeks which are usually dry/normal skin looked really shiny in a bad way. I know this BB cream is supposed to give you a "bronze glow" but I think it's more suited to darker/drier skin types.

I am very fair completed with light eyes and hair and I wear the light sheer. Not sure what the next deeper color would be. It really is sheer anyway, so I imagine it would blend in well if you went with the medium. My skin is so pretty withthis makeup, I love it's hydration.

The Ultra has a higher viscosity ("thicker"). I find it much more soothing, and don't have to apply it as often. There's also an Ultra gel drop that is even "thicker" and really great when the air is really dry, or indoor heat or air is blowing. Nice to have options to choose from! Btw, my ophthalmologist recommended Systane Ultra, and my eyes feel much better.

Make sure you get a white eye shadow base. They have the regular and the shimmer by the Nyx brand. It shows up even without a black-light. I do make-up for a living and this stuff rocks!

If you are looking to cancel out redness get vanilla as it is quite yellow based... but be careful because too much can look super yellowy (and i have a yellow undertone!)

Go with the colors closest to your skin tone...get several color...some a little lighter And some a little darker and mix them until you find the perfect match...just remember how many drops of each color you use when mixing so when you find the perfect match you will be able to mix the color perfect each time....good luck...air brushing is wonderful!

First it really depends on how light or dark your skin tone is and the undertones ... the last 4 darker shades I would say are as follows: latte, caramel, cocoa and a dark chocolate in shade. If all you are using it for is to conceal a few areas to match your foundation then I would say its a good purchase, you can use the yellow with the latte to help "lift" the under eye area just blend with your foundation very well... however, there are palettes out there that are just for women of color (African American). I hope this helps. If you are latino and or olive skinned this palette is for you completely.

I have owned both beige and ocher. I am fairly fair skinned as well with dark hair. I have been able to get away with ocher but as a makeshift foundation stick. The beige is a perfect concealer that blends in with my skin tone and under eye concealer. Ocher I think is more suitable if you have yellow/really prevalent olive tones. Im middle eastern but Im more pinker than olive. I bought ochre online then went to nordstroms and realized the beige was a better fit and I just sold it to a friend. TOTALLY WORTH THE MONEY unless you're face is an oil slick then I wouldn't advise.

My skin is very sight so I use the soft ivory but if it's to light for you try light ivory. I hope this helped.

I'm very pale myself and I hate this foundation. It's very pink toned. I've tried the lightest shade and the next one up and the colors are so bad. I would recommend revlon colorstay liquid in ivory or buff because the colors are very flattering and you're sure to find a match. The coverage is great too. Apply it with a beauty blender for the best finish.
