For anyone who is wondering about the shade Fresh Gold, here is a picture with me wearing it...



I think it's a pretty good match! For reference other shades I'm close to/match in are:
Ocean Mist Sahara
Alima W5-6
Lumiere Medium Deep Golden
BE Medium Tan
EDM Medium Tan
MAC NC42

Don'thate,
You've got a perfect match there! Looks very natural.

Any, I wouldn't advise the Yellows for you, it is a very pure color. Try the Golds. I'm Asian and I find that I'm between the Yellows and Golds, and I'm now mixing my Creamy Ytellow with Radiant Gold with quite good effects. Another one I like is Summer Tan (thanks Hoozey, for the sample!) and it is quite pretty. The texture is so lovely!

Wow! That is an excellent match! You look radiant!

don't hate, it seems like a perfect match! You look great!

Qwerty, I am mixing too! Although I mix the yellows, and I found out that my summer shade is a 50-50 mix of Creamy Yellow and Delicate Yellow (in the original formula). I love it! I can also pull a mix of Radiant Gold and Pure Gold. I'm really loving Lauress, I don't have to touch up during the day even in this 100 degree heat. All I need are a couple of blotting sheets. Finish at 3 p.m. still looks as flawless as when it was applied at 7 am. Amazing!

Don'thate, you look fantastic in the Fresh Gold. It matches your neck perfectly!

Ok, i hear your varnings about the Yellows beeing.. eeh very yellow! But I´m still not sure i´ll stay away from them, so let´s here what you guys think of this:

During the winter i´ve found some light, yellowish foundation that has been working well (BE fairly light and light, EDM golden fair and winged butter), but after my trip to Thailand a month ago it´s all wrong.. I´ve noticed that I can get winged butter to look a bit darker by really working it into my skin but then it gets a bit pink... And it´s still a little too light.

I have no recent pitures but this would be me (and my half sister) in the summer with no makeup on... What do you say, LaurEss yellow or gold? I´m ready to order samples!

hi any! I think Gold.
But of course you could order some "yellow" samples to compare ...

BTW, here is a chart I did of lauress elemental golds and yellows (the samples I have) for those who are interested..

[Qwerty]

Ah, the color chart makes it so clear!

Aileen, I'm so glad I ordered the Lauress after reading your review, you look so gorgeous in it. It saves me time going through sample after sample - it is one of my HGs! I hope you ordered a few more tubs because they have discontinued the Original on their site. Now I wish I'd bought the Radiant Yellow... I might just have to make do with their concealers plus the Elemental, what do you think? I have quite oily skin and need to retouch quite often, but fortunately, I found that I can press Lauress with a metal spoon into a small jar to bring along.

LaurEss is one of my HGs. I wear Pure Yellow, and I absolutely LOVE it. It's a perfect match. It's what I wear whenever I'm sure that photos will be taken, like family gatherings or nights out with my friends.
