I know Makeup For Ever make one and I have a quad from Adrienne (Sig.Club A) that has some in it. I tried it for the first time yesterday. I am of Dark Medium or Light Tan complexion. I wear Bobbi Brown in 4.5 Warm Natural. MAC in NC37/40 and Lancome Miracle Teint in 6W Bisque. To me it seemed, it took out the yellow in my skin adn made it seem brighter. Is that what it is for? Should I be using it?

Thank you for any input.

I believe lavender removes sallowness. It is used under foundation.

As far as I know, lavender counteracts yellow in the skin tone, i.e. counters looking sallow.

Think of the color wheel. Purple is opposite yellow. They should cancel each other out in MU.

If you think you look brighter, I say go for it. Just remember to keep a light touch. Less is more!
