  • Foundation for Yellow Skin Tones


    So, I need some advice, and I thought Lovelyish would be a pretty good place to ask this question.

    Even though my skin is very yellowy, I tan a lot. I've used everything from light ivory to medium beige when it comes to foundations.

    But I always have the same problem: 
     
     Most foundations leave a very pinkish, red, or even white tint
    that isn't very pretty at all...even if I barely use any at all...the BROWNEST shade on my face will just make me look pale....

    I've had a lot of people say, "just get it professionally done," like I'm going to do that every morning when I put on makeup, and like I have money to buy my MAC cosmetics every time I go up or down a few shades...

    I was just wondering if anyone else has ever had this problem, what they did, and how they fixed it!

    and just to show the color difference:

    this picture was taken little after winter
    (yea I know I'm not the most plain of people, but my skin is pretty light)

    and finally:


    you can see how my foundation no longer matches my tan. BUT, i am wearing a BROWN shade in this picture.......


    The more I tan, the more yellow I get, and I can't seem to find the right product. Any ideas?
