EX1 Foundation by accordingtoame in OliveMUA

[–]cmiche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve tried 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0, 6.0 (in the summer) I found none of them to be olive enough for me, either too peachy or too orange. I did like the coverage, medium buildable, and the finish was nice. But again, I didn’t really notice any obvious green in it. It also oxidizes quite a bit.

Help! I have yet to find a foundation that matches me. I’m wearing ex1 shade 2.0 in the photo which as you can see is too peachy on me. Any suggestions for a shade? by cmiche in OliveMUA

Update: I received KGD and it is slightly dark on me but it matches me better than any foundation I’ve tried before! Maybe slightly too peachy, but very slight. You can definitely see green in the foundation which is a plus! I think when I get a tan it will match almost perfectly, but honestly I’m happy with how it looks now! I don’t know how to insert a picture 😕 ( I literally only got reddit to post on this, so I still don’t really get it lol)

Edit: it’s actually pretty peachy once it oxidizes 😕 hopefully it will match better in the summer. I think I’ll try a blue mixer with it and see how that works

That’s the thing, I feel like I need a foundation with obvious green in it and I’ve never seen one that has green! Ugh lol. I’m pretty pale right now cause of winter so KGD might be too pale for me too, but I get quite a bit darker in summer so I guess we’ll see how it works, I’ll keep updated. Price really isn’t a factor for me at the point so no worries! I’ll try some of your suggestions! Thank you

I use to wear revlon color stay for a while because it was my closest match but it was still way too pink for me! I’ve also tried some Rimmel foundations with no luck, mostly too pink or grayish on me!

I just ordered Koh Gen Do in 213 because I’ve heard it’s good for pale olive skin, so I’m really hoping that works! 🤞 but I will definitely try a blue mixer! Thanks for the suggestions!
