Foundation for tan skin? - tanTALK

LavenderFleur · 02-19-2003, 03:50 PM

I have the hardest time finding a foundation for my face when I am tan . Most of them end up looking too pink or orange. I prefer the powder type foundation instead of the liquid. I have never had good results from liquid. Is there a brand that anyone can recommend?

I can recommend a brand that you will love GUARANTEED! its by MAC Cosmetics... it is the Studio Fix Foundation, they have every single shade in the world, and they have shades with yellow undertones or red undertones, it is really amazing... its a powder foundation and u control the amount of coverage, every Celebrity uses it check out their website for a location near u, www.maccosmetics.com

Have you ever tried the Suddenly Sun Bronzing Powder by Caltan. I have used this as my foundation for over 3 years now. I love it. Looks natural and not heavy. I wear it year around. You control the darkness.

I will have to look into both of those products! Thanks!
P.S. I don't know why my posts are multiple posting??? Sorry!

Sometimes when the board is slow or says it isn't responding, it actually is. I have done this several times myself.

I think you will like the Suddenly Bronze Powder. Only I get better results with a brush instead of the sponge that comes with it.

MAC MAC MAC!!!!!!!!!! If you do not like the sparkly bronzer powder look (or even if you do) I reccomend the MAC Hyper Real liquid or if you like powder foundation I second the Studio Fix vote. Now, if you going out at night, having photod taken ect use the liquid then the powder and your skin is PERFECT!!!!! I think the look is a little heavy for day but....

I use revlon skinlights in honey beige...It's the darkest one they have. Then I use a wet paper towel to blend the edges around my chin and it's great!

Supre makes a product almost like a foundation. It comes in 6 different shades. I am not sure if it is still being manufactured. I know we are still selling it to salons. It is called S1 S2 S3, you get the idea. I have never tried it. But we get people who swear by it.
Swedish Beauty makes two products that are pretty popular. Bronze Faces which is a spray and moisturizer with bronzer.
Designer Skin has the Big O for the face too!!!
