misskitten I was trying to recreate a Twilight vampire look so hunted down the palest drugstore foundation possible. Well I found Miss Sporty does a matte foundation (it's not too matte - very flattering) in shade 01 which was the absolute palest foundation I found. It cost me about £3, and guess what - I'm hooked! I love it so much that I'm going to repurchase the 02 (medium) shade (my true shade) to replace my SFF when it runs out
1. Warm or cool shade? Warm - I have yellow undertones, though Mac is known for its backwards colour wheel, so I'm an NC.
2. Brands and shade of foundations: winter: MAC NC25 SFF, MAC NC27 studio tech, Bourjois 10 hour sleep effect in medium 73, Maybelline dream satin liquid foundation in Nude.
Summer: bobbi brown tinted moisturiser in medium, bobby brown skin foudation in 3.5 warm beige (this is slightly too beige),
when I'm tan: MAC NC30 SFF, Clarins tinted moisturiser in Peche, Loreal Infallible in Golden Sun.
3. Brands and shade of concealers: summer: MAC select cover up in NC30,
winter: MAC Studio Finish concealer in NC20
4. Do you use primer? nope - I use Nivea's oil free moisturiser only before makeup.
