Girls, please help me choose a foundation.
I have very light, thin skin, and all the foundations that I used gave a yellowish appearance, “yellowing my face.” The only foundation that suited me perfectly in color was Max Factor Ageless Elexir, the lightest tone Natural 50.
But! It's for mature skin!
I would like to find the same color, but something from higher quality and more expensive brands. I have never bought expensive foundation creams for myself, so I don’t understand them at all. I tried to try something in stores, but for some reason it seemed to me that the lightest colors were very “yellow.”
Please recommend a good foundation! The brand, name and tone number are required. I will be very grateful!
Thank you!
And one more question, who knows, please explain.
Are foundation and foundation the same thing? Or does foundation need a base first? So we apply the foundation first, and then the foundation? So?
I apologize for the stupid questions))) but this is not clear to me..

Don’t laugh, but try “Ballet 2000”, the lightest tone, I don’t remember what it’s called, like pastel, look it up on the internet. Just don’t confuse ballet 2000 with regular ballet. the quality and color will surprise you.
I looked at the tone on mine and it’s called “natural”
I liked Maybelline Affinitone. it’s inexpensive) ivory, it fits well and lasts a long time, especially if your skin is well-groomed and not so easy to cover up. Also Maybelline Facefinity, but it seems they don’t have such light shades)
Everyone has a skin undertone, most have yellow, but there is also olive and pink. In general, I would recommend BB creams, the most undertone-free one I’ve tried is innisfree mineral cover. and missha cho bo (I don’t remember the rest)
Givenchy photo-whatever. Tone 1 or 4. They have a pinkish undertone, 1 whitens, 4 is more natural, but darker than I would like. In winter you have to mix it, in summer it’s fine.
I've been using L'Oreal True Match for many years now - in these glass bottles, there are a lot of shades, and most importantly, everything is divided into 3 categories: warm skin tone, neutral and cold. And in each of these 3 categories there are 10 or more shades. I use the “coolest”, lightest shade - C1, Alabaster - ideal, very light, completely invisible on the skin and at the same time hides minor imperfections.
Even earlier, when I couldn’t find this foundation, I mixed any other one with white pura or shadows (pour the foundation directly into the palm of your hand and add the powder, stir, here’s the recipe :)), otherwise they really all gave off a yellowish tint to me.

Look for Asian BB creams, as a rule, they are all very light
Lumene without yellowish undertone.
[Girl, I also have very pale skin. I also looked for foundations for a long time, but they were all either yellow or pink. I've been using only Dior for several years now. There are several series of foundations. I recommend Dior Sculptor. Shade 010 is also the lightest. It is ivory in color and has a dense texture, just good for hiding capillaries. Costs around 2.5 thousand

The author, from inexpensive and cool - Lumine. Very! light! I also spent a long time choosing one for my pale skin. I couldn't be happier now.
clarins color 103
If you have good skin, it’s better to skip the makeup base. They contain silicone, which is not beneficial (the pores expand and air access to the skin is limited); they are recommended to be used “on holidays.” And in general, such tricks - foundation + foundation - would be appropriate for photo shoots, under the right light, etc. Otherwise it will look hard. I use (after careful selection) Sisley phyto teint eclat. In fact, I can recommend him. Also the lightest tone - 1 ivory, does not yellow. Yellow ones don’t work either, and pink ones don’t work either; a balanced amount of red and yellow pigments suits me.
Author, I have the same problem, I haven’t found my foundation, I don’t have any problems, I use the foundation with Guerlain pearl meteorites (my face glows and is moisturized after it) and I mix the radiant pinkish benefit foundation with moisturizer - it’s absolutely luxurious! Try it)
On me, the lightest Lumene and Dior look like a dark mask. I’m generally silent about everyone else. The vaunted BB creams are only suitable for tanned skin; in all other cases, use the same mask. The lightest discovered were Sisley 00 porcelain and Bobby Brown 00 alabaster. Sisley costs about 4.5 thousand rubles. Bobby Brown 2.5 t.r.

Eva, make sure your skin doesn’t need foundation) It’s easier to make your skin glow than to clog your pores and face and then get rid of this problem. With uv. Yulia
I have this problem. Why, when applying foundation, yellow lines appear on the face in the nose area, on both sides, although the rest of the skin looks quite good, without any yellow stripes and spots, but near the nose it’s just a disaster. What if I also sprinkle powder on top, then these stripes stand out as if I smeared them with dark yellow cream, and used a different shade of foundation to apply to other areas of the skin. Tell me how to deal with this?
Choosing a foundation is a problematic issue for girls whose skin is very light or even pale. But the mask effect can still be easily avoided

Text: Editorial staff of Makeup.ru December 18, 2016
Even foundations marked light on the packaging, alas, often turn out to be too dark for pale porcelain skin. On the face, they turn into a mask and give the skin a tanning effect, which was completely unnecessary. What about girls who have atypically fair skin, what foundation is right for them?
The main thing that makeup artists advise is to understand the undertone of your skin. It can be neutral, warm or cold. There are several ways to determine yours.
- The first is the classic one: look at the veins in your arms. If they are blue, it means your skin has a cool undertone. When the veins are green, the undertone is warm. It is neutral if both green and blue veins are visible.
- The second is with the help of jewelry. Gold suits those with warm skin tones more. And silver, accordingly, is for girls with cold undertones.
- The third is with the help of clothes. You will need two things: a snow-white shade and a cream color. The first one suits “warm-skinned” people more, and the second one suits “cold-skinned” people.
It is the undertone that girls with very fair skin should take into account. For example, Lancôme has foundations with light shades for each subtone. Teint Visionnaire cream, in particular, is available in Beige Rose (with a pinkish tint - for “cold” skin) and Beige Albatre (yellowish - for “warm”).
In general, look for very light foundations from Urban Decay (Naked Skin in shade No. 0.5), Giorgio Armani (Maestro Fusion Makeup in shade No. 2), L’Oréal Paris (Lumi Magique in shade No. 1 Ivory).
At the same time, we must not forget that you need to try shades of foundation before purchasing at the jaw line, and not on your hand. This is what will allow you to choose a truly suitable product. Find other tips to help you decide on the right texture and shade here.
There are also some tips that will help girls with pale skin achieve the ideal result when working with tone.
- There is no need to set the foundation with colored powder, even if it is matched tone-on-tone. For this purpose, use a transparent fixative. Then the risk of getting a mask effect will be much less.
- If the foundation you choose is still a little dark, there is a way to “lighten” it. Mix a drop of product with moisturizer. The coating on the skin will be translucent and, as a result, lighter.
- After applying foundation, be sure to use blush. Girls with pale skin should not refuse them. Otherwise, your complexion will be painful. Blush-balms are most suitable for fair-skinned people - for example, Baby Lips Balm & Blush from Maybelline New York.

Light, white skin. A good foundation for fair skin.
We urgently need your help!
Recommend what you use - what is a good foundation, any reviews are interesting. I’m desperate to find it in Minsk, so I’m planning to order on the Internet, but I’d like to listen to your advice. Problem 1, it is very important that it does not clog your pores.
Problem 2, only albinos can outdo me in my pale skin. I don’t put on makeup on Halloween because everyone already mistakes me for a ghost, and Snow White looks like a tanned girl compared to me. The lightest foundation that is offered to me in stores is at least 2 shades darker than necessary.
Please, help! White skin is normal, so I wouldn’t want to get the mask effect either.
Thank you all so much in advance.
— I have the same problem, I have fair skin, I save myself with Korean bb creams.
— Absolutely white Lakow color correction foundation, but it didn’t really suit me in winter. But as an under-eye concealer it’s just amazing. In general, bb cream is a topic. It also helps me out with transparent white powder.
— Cushion from missha number 21 is the salvation of all snow whites.
— Lumene, especially the oil-free one, Sephora cushion for pale skin.
There is also an option to purchase a primer to neutralize redness, just add a drop to the foundation, and it will be just 2 shades lighter.
— Yes, you need Korean or Japanese cosmetics, because they love super white skin. Look for foundations from Tony Molly.
— I recommend a very useful video on YouTube, Top 25 Makeup Tips, Tricks & Products for Pale Skin, if you haven’t seen it yet.
— From the budget, I bought the Korean VOV liquid foundation to try. It wears amazingly, but it's for girls without severe skin problems - it won't cover up acne. Light, pleasant product. I didn’t choose the lightest tone for myself, but maybe you’ll find something for yourself.
— Watch the video makeup for pale skin on YouTube. It would take a long time to list. Well, the coolest and lightest foundation is probably Mak w15, but I haven’t tried it. From the proven foundation Revlon Colorstay 110, Lumine Ivory. In general, the coolest option is to buy a white adjuster, or a white tone to mix with others. There is one like this in Nyx and Makeup Revolution, I plan to buy the latter, otherwise I don’t have the strength to suffer anymore in search.
And yes, the lavender and green base slightly brightens the face if applied under the tone.
— You don’t seem to be complaining about the condition of your skin, so I’ll ask.
Why do you need foundation?
In my opinion, it is heavier, of course, than BB or CC cream. You can easily use Misha and concealer from Nars.
— Make up for ever. Ultra hd. Available with pink undertone 230 and yellow (forgot the number).
- The same situation with white skin. Lumen, BB from Erborian and MAS clogged my pores. The best for me were Bobby Brown and Sisley, but the latter is hard to find. And a white makeup base from Givenchy always helps.
— I join Lumene in shade 0 Ivory, I also have Missha Perfect Cover BB in shade 13, also light.
— The problem is similar, I have light skin, I have Revlon ivory and Catrice in the same shade, one is photoshopped nicely, the other is lighter, but applies very nicely.
— Misha perfect carpet 13 tone (for gray corpse snow whites), doesn’t clog anything, works great with layers.
- The same song with white skin. Try searching among artdeco and gosh foundations. The latter, in a black flat bottle, once had my foundation, which could have been used to whiten the ceiling. artdeco has good options in glass bottles, especially, what is important, you can choose according to yellow or pink undertones.
And, oddly enough, black pearl bb cream 9 in 1. I have a natural creamy one. The easiest of these, it corrects my poor complexion, which is usually blue-green due to the close-lying veins. It goes on translucently, blends in with the skin color, and the cost is pretty cheap.
— God, I love Mikey, I’ve watched this video probably 300 times, but it’s been a long time.
— I usually have excellent skin, but for the last three weeks I’ve been having some terrible problems, although now everything is returning to normal thanks to the efforts of the cosmetologist. I mix Maxfactor 100 long lasting with cream or apply white powder on top, although I don’t really like powdering. I bought a Lumene zero today, but haven’t had time to test it yet.
- Thank you. Lady, thank you all so much for your answers.
— And I’m also one of the snow-white ones, I use oriflame ecobeauty in the shade porcelain. Although many people do not like such an inexpensive mass market, for me personally this is the best Namba One foundation.
— I used to buy a very light tone from shiseido, it was light and masked it perfectly, in general, a wonderful fluid.
— Tony moly Luminous Goddess Aura BB Cream.
— I have some kind of foundation from Mizon, but among the Korean ones it’s generally difficult to find something suitable, either you’re lucky or not (I worked in a Korean cosmetics store). Also looking.
It feels like all foundations get darker over time (or it’s me who turns pale and fades into nothingness).
— There are Belarusian cosmetics “Relouis”, bb cream, very light colors, it didn’t suit me.
But the option is budget and very good, without allergies.
And, by the way, it’s the same thing whether you buy in a transition or in an expensive cosmetics store, the difference is zero.
It’s all nonsense that poverty alone buys in the transition. Poverty has no money for foundation.
— I use Revlon colorstay in the shade ivory for my white skin.
Rimmel also has fairly light foundations, the first is a lighter lasting finish, the second is a dense matte.
— I wanted to try this matte one, but this shade is nowhere to be found, as always.
- And by the way, the brightest one has also disappeared in our country lately.
Moreover, it’s not even on the Internet, except that it’s lying around on Amazon.
— Erborian is normal for me, it doesn’t clog my pores more than they already are, I have white skin too.
— Maybe among these there will be a suitable tonal one, look at the agidelia.
And if your skin is dry or normal, the top option is Rimmel Perfect Match Foundation. I have fair skin and 101 – light ivory suits me. But they generally have white - 010 - light porcelain, and it can be found in Minsk. I saw these foundations in light colors in TSUM and on Impulse.
— Why do you need foundation for such good skin? No, I really don’t understand.
I don’t use foundations myself, because... I don’t like the feeling of it on the skin, and the foundation reveals the wonderful nasolabial wrinkles of an 80-year-old wise Tibetan woman, because I smile through all 28 braces.
- The same problem with fair skin. I'm saving bb from Missha in shade 13. There is also 21, but it is too dark for me.
— I can recommend bb holika holika petit.
But if finances allow, Erborian CC cream has incredible staying power (it survived 2 hours of waiting at the airport, a flight of the same length and a hot day with rain) and does not clog pores.
- Hm. I, too, am a pale moth, I used VV Vivienne sabo first, the lightest affinityton, the lightest lumene nechral code - it’s really nothing. This is something that is easy to find in Minsk. I was also very pleased with this BB cream. From Aliexpress - a green tube of floss, with a snail. Inexpensive, however, very, very expensive. Very pale, persistent. True, it may not be very suitable for oily skin, but it will sit perfectly on normal and dry skin, the main thing is to let it sit on the skin, and then powder it if necessary (it works great with transparent powder).
Although if the skin doesn’t have any special problems, use pale pink Flormar corrector (they have a department in Galileo on the second floor) under the eyes, if necessary, perhaps pale loose powder and hurray - it looks and feels much nicer than foundation for everything.
- How do you like lumine anyway?
— Just in case, I took a photo of him, otherwise my friend also has 0, but he’s somehow different.
Still not as light as my skin, but that’s okay, it looks pretty decent, at least it doesn’t turn yellow at all. It claims to be matte, but I didn’t notice any particular matte on myself, although my skin is not oily. The coverage is not bad, but it will not cope with severe problems. It lasts almost the whole day, but by the evening the blurred imperfections become noticeable. Pleasant smell, but strong, not for everyone.
— Somehow, I’m not really ready to pay 1,200,000 for a foundation.
(The first result when I googled it was that they might be cheaper).
- And Erborian yes, dear, and Holika in Russia. rubles - about 600.
— Ladies, I thank everyone and send warm greetings to everyone.
I heard a lot of good reviews about Bobby Brown, that they have the lightest tone, very snow-white. But it’s a bit expensive, of course, 3500 in rubles.
- Which store did you buy it from?
— And at “Impulse”, box 39, I think.
- Oh. Now I’ll give it away completely unexpectedly. A light, durable and light coating is provided by “Ballet 2000”, the first tone. I'm serious. True, some may be put off by the Soviet-style metal tube, while others may be put off by the smell of incense, which is not an acquired taste. But I love him dearly for something.
It's also great for the stage. Even a dense layer does not float under the spotlights for the entire performance, although this is a fairly tough crash test.
— Wow, it’s white in the swatches.
— Korean BB creams help.
- Well, of course, it’s not that white, but it’s very light and not yellow. True, some kind of moisturizing base is definitely needed for it - it dries out the skin a little (but 8 hours of a matte forehead! It’s just a shock, I have it as oily as a passenger train).
— From the mass market lumene, they even have shade 0! And I’m also pale as a toadstool, but in color 1 it suits me perfectly and masks all the imperfections perfectly.
- Apparently, you are not that pale. I took 0, it’s still darker, but not scary.
- Oh, 0 is a bit dark for me too. It also caused acne, so be careful with it. I didn’t think about it for a long time because of the rave reviews, but it turned out that it was the lumen foundation.
- And you scared me. I recently started using it and my skin is fine.
“And if there hasn’t already been a reaction, then I think everything will be fine, everyone expressed it almost immediately, the main thing is to be vigilant.”
- Well, if something goes wrong, I’ll write about it here. Thanks for the warnings.
— If you don’t want your pores to clog, buy light foundations. Essence, for example, has soft and natural.
“And I also have extremely white skin, I understand the author perfectly well.” I constantly use blush and choose foundations with a slight pinkish tint, otherwise grandmothers sometimes groan when they see me so pale. And the lightest foundation from the Better skin series from Maybelline suits me well. If your skin is dry, don't forget to moisturize because foundation dries it out a little.
— If you don’t know which foundation to take, Korean BB cream skin79. In a green jar. Close to white.
— Shade 100 from Max Factor Lasting Performance is excellent! I have very pale skin and this cream was perfect.
- And to me it’s dark, even very dark.
- Then Korean creams, as advised above, are the best option, they definitely have very light foundation creams.
- Yes, I used it for many years, but the difference with the neck was visible, it was dark, although more pale gray than a milky maiden.
— Apparently, the max factor seems very light to me because, after all, my skin, although pale, is not white as snow. In the summer, by the way, I use this cream and like it. Natural code skin perfector.
- Yes, mine is not white either, but the max factor was a little dark, all the problems were solved by Misha (I wrote above), it’s good that now Asians are well represented on the market.
— After a month of almost daily use, I can say that this is the best thing that has happened to me from foundations. An inexpensive Chinese BB cream for 4 bucks from Ali turned out to be better than the max factor, skin79 and lumens on all fronts.
