NARS Concealer in Dark 1 Cafe (to cover spots on the face aside from eyes)Įstee Lauder Double Wear Concealer in Extra Deep (to cover dark spots under eyes and all over) Concealers & PowdersĬover FX Cream Concealer (I use N-Deep to highlight, N X-Deep to cover elsewhere)īobbi Brown Creamy Concealer Kit in Almond (to brighten under the eyes) I use N70 when I want a “brighter” highlighter and N80 when I want something more subtle but even when I use N70 I still use N80 under my brow bone area. I started using these for highlighting because I was going through the Cover FX concealers so fast.

Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Ultra Definition Liquid Makeup in Shade 12 (I sometimes use Shade 11 to slightly highlight under my eyes and the center of my forehead)Ĩ/18/14: edited to add Cover FX Total Cover Cream Foundation in N70 and N80 Kevyn Aucoin Sensual Skin Enhancer (I use 12 to highlight and 16 to contour) I also have to change foundations as the seasons here in NYC change-although sometimes I have to play it day by day because it can be super cold one day and then mild the next.Īlso I don’t tend to buy/use drugstore foundation often because not being able to open things up before I buy drives me NUTS but I have reviewed a ton-just check out my drugstore makeup tag.Ĭover FX Total Cover Cream Foundations in N100, N110, N120 (I’ll tell you how I use these below)īECCA Radiant Skin in Mink (this is more my match but if I tan a bit, I’ll mix a bit of Mahogany in it)īECCA Matte Skin Shine Proof Mahogany (it’s common for different formulas within a brand to not have exact shade matches-this happens also in Laura Mercier’s Tinted Moisturizer in the regular and oil-free version)Īrmani Maestro #11.5 & 12 (I use 11.5 on its own in the winter, but in the summer I mix a little 12 in it) I recently did a huge purge before the holidays so I could see everything better and use more of my stash and buy less. I go through phases with foundation as I do with most of my makeup where I use some stuff all the time and then switch when I find something new.

Read why you CAN’T use MAC as a foundation guide I also sometimes need to mix in a deeper foundation or use a deeper shade in the summer depending on how dark I get. ***Make sure you check out Dark MAC Foundation Swatches and Why MAC Isn’t a Foundation Guide*** SOMETIMES I can wear a foundation that leans a little bit away from being neutral, but it depends on the formula-as you can see from the swatches some of these look different, but they all wind up matching me. Most of these I’ve already reviewed on the blog, so if you want more info click on the pink hyperlinks :)įor reference, my skin is dark brown with neutral undertones which sometimes works out to be an NW45/47 in MAC foundations which I don’t wear really but that’s the standard in internet beauty speak. But anyway, I was looking at my stash the other day (just realized I forgot to include my Tom Ford Traceless Stick Foundation, but I don’t put it into rotation much because TOM FORD himself autographed it for me) and figured it’d make for a nice post to share my indulgence in hopes of it helping someone looking for foundation for dark skin with the same coloring as me OR perhaps there are other foundation junkies like me of all shades and this post finds them solace.
