Hey Does anyone else have this prob? I recently noticed that my neck is a shade or two darker than my face, and this is freshly scrubbed, out of the shower. I'm not sure what I should do. Oh yeah. My legs, like my face, is deathly pale too.

I had been using MAC up until I noticed that it was starting to look dark and even a bit orangey on me. :( I then found Body & Soul which has been a godsend, since it's all yellow-based!

how do you rid your nose of blackheads? Mine is getting disgusting and washing my face frequently is not helping it. I am trying not to eat any deep fried or other nasty grease, but it still looks like my nose is a mess.

I've used every line of foundations for my oily skin (Estee Lauder, Lancome, Christian Dior, etc.,) I finally found one that I am happy with, Chanel Double Perfection foundation. It is kinda pricey, but you don't need a lot for a good coverage so it lasts longer and it keeps me shine free longer than any other make-up.

Make sure you match the foundation to your NECK, not your FACE. That's one of the worst make-up mistakes. If you match the foundation to your face, your face always ends up looking lighter than your neck...

I've just recently started using foundation. I've found that it gives me a more finished look. I use a damp makeup sponge with vitamin E already in it. Dot the foundation on face and blend it outwards. I get a more finished and smooth look with a damp sponge. Use the triangle ones, they last for a week. And make sure to soak and rinse with soap and water after each usage..the sponge will expand, then contract when dry. Tell me what you think.

Im yellowish-pinkish.. And I found MAC C30 to be good before. & I dont know what happened, but recently they seem to be adding more dead-yellow color into it.. and it just makes me look like a corpse!!! Argh. What do I do now??
BTW, MAC is a good foundation. I just got problem with their so-called "improvement"... :(

I've been using the skinlights concealer in light (even though I was complaining about it being too light coloured -it's ok when I put another colour on top) and it's an ok product. at least it isn't orange like the "medium" one. I still prefer my l'oreal "feel natural" concealer.

Everyone should use yellow-based foundation. Lorac has a good line, and so does Bobbi Brown. Yellow is very natural and very correcting too. :)

I hope you can provide us the list of brands-foundations that is best for asian women. Because I've been using make up for 5 years now, I've tried from revlon, max, loreal, estee laudeer but it seems like nobody can really bring out the best in me or my real colouring.

Well, there. I just went out and bought Revlon's Skinlights Illuminating Lotion in Natural light. It seems great. Light and shimmering. Perfect for this look I saw the other day, where you 'spotlight' certain areas of your face and bring them forward. I hope it works well, will report later.
