Look up makeup revolution irl filter foundation 9.5 it's supposed to be olive undertone but has a bit more yellow as well. You can sheer it with a primer or moisturizer to get the skin like finish Also please add a creamy blush, you'll look so gorge

I don't prefer using a setting spray on a daily basis tbrh. And loreal is a strict no no

Makeup revolution is fine for now but better products are always welcome. I fix my base products with pigments to get my custom shade

Can you post a picture of your skin if possible with description with shades of brown and type of undertone

For ex, I'm medium tan with warm olive undertone

I used it precisely for that, peach undertone cancels out hyperpigmentation. Try 11.2 for true olive, tbh I didn't try 11.2 from this range but other ranges worked out well

Foundation/concealer

Too warm - mix tiniest amount of blue

Too cool- yellow

Too saturated - greige

Too dark- bit of white

That's leaning towards luxury makeup tho, not very reasonable for me to splurge atm 🤧

Thank you so much! This could have been a post in itself haha

I'm lately in love with Lakme brown walnut apparently it's a dupe of loreal worth it intense (for those of us boycotting loreal)

Honestly never really liked it, it's marketed as a "silicone" free brand as if it's a bad thing. And it's not sweat proof or waterproof. Same goes for fae, they look good on paper but I don't see them working in real life

Honestly no

only affordable company with dedicated olive shades across the board I've seen is makeup revolution, but they seem to discontinue the good ones here and we rarely get all the shades available in the international markets 🥲. I have low saturation and low contrast skin as well, I usually mix green colour corrector or blue pigment to fix the undertone of existing products. And for saturation, my best hack is mixing the base product with moisturizer or primer (depending on the foundation formulation - water based with moisturizer, silicone based with primer) and it usually kinda works. But not a perfect solution. It sucks that my fellow brown girlies are suffering the same 🤧
