Hi there - like everyone else today, I need some help to figure out if I should get Light or Medium in the TSV foundation? I'm a BE Light, also Light in Mac Mineralize.

thanks so much for your help!

I'm having the same problem. I wish they would show the actual colors instead of the pictures. So they lost a sale.

If I were you I'd order you usual light unless you're tanned. I'm usually a medium across the board except with JM Matchmaker I'm light-medium. In the Doll 10 I chose medium. It is in the paler side of medium so kinda scary when first applying but then settles into a good shade for me and then I add a little bronzer.

under the item she has a video that shows the colors LIVE! I bought light and it's more of a natural color I think, the Medium is very yellow. Check it out. Everything in the kit is GREAT! I've tried them all....

I've had medium shades in other foundations that were more on the neutral side and some that were more yellow. In the video, Doris says the medium has a "yellow undertone". I have to disagree with your assessment that it's "very yellow". It really isn't heavily yellow. At least it didn't show that way on me.

@Phelina,

Hello~....

I am very choosy what I use in any coloring... and/or skincare This was just great for me ...(very sensitive skin and no added 20 worded ingredients.

I purchased the LIGHT. I have fair skin, not porcelain, but do NOT need a lot of yellow, but definitely have pink undertones.

The LIGHT is more of a 'neutral'- exactly what I need; very difficult to locate in any brand- ``` fine store products or otc which is usually either caked or heavy..too much matte for my 'look'.

this particular formula has a sheer glide and is beautiful for a glow summer weight.

The medium is for a more slightly darker complexion needing yellow, which it has. Too much yellow if LIGHT complexed...ME.

Sure have studied this ONE over & over through videos.

The fair would be very pale and would wash me out, `but no yellow`.

The blush is the ~icing on the cake~ to compliment flawless skin.

I have normal balanced tone, so this will be fun in using.

*I wear very little foundation, but when I do, it's is for boosting up a POP and shows the blush~ beautifully- oh, so much better.

I love blush. Always has been a #1 for me. Definitely use 'my' reds lipsticks in a true red with no blue, so the lip stick in natural will not work for me.

The brush is very universal, so I am using that for either blush or bronzing. I have 2 similar ones: these (types) are usually sold alone; also noting the bristles are nothing of _animal_! Big issue with me. Great kit in my opinion.

BLUSH: Always has been one of my main-STAYS. Not any harsh over the strong look, i.e., [[over done]].... just a soft natural blend. Nothing remotely close to the powders that cake or clinging to any moisturizers or foundation.

BE/ minerals....I did wear a LIGHT or fairly light (from the older formula.

'I have never worn anything in a medium'. The yellow shows up more after applying, especially in daylight.

Hope this help somewhat. I can appreciate anything 'GEL' in facial coloring.

I have no use for an eye concealer but can gift the lip shade and eye concealer to a friend. More interested in the Hydragel formula.

I know that I will really like this.

I'm trying to resist this one, but I am thinking of trying it. Seems a good price. Has anyone used the foundation?

@Reba055, No I have not, but definitely know who does.

@WenDoll10girl does.

I spoke with her last week and she sold me. She told me how much she thought it to be one great product. I hope that she can tell you more about it.

I searched the video and listened over & over until I understood the entire concept.

I never go by others' opinions when they know as little as I, especially when negatives. 'Don't care for her products, not what I want, etc ...yadda stuff.

This will be my 1st Doll10 purchase and I have that ` appreciated feeling.

I am normally fair to fair/light and if I order I will be buying it in fair because everyone, including Doris, said fair is more pink/neutral undertones whereas the light is similar but a bit warmer. To me, warmer means more yellow undertones but I think it looks neutral to yellow.

I understand the concept of having an online video where customers can see the actual colors, and that's very nice. However, I am still firm in my belief that for selling foundation on TV please show and describe the colors LIVE ON AIR. The air time is filled with minutes of useless drivel, so why not use some of those minutes to repeat the demo of the online video of SHOWING the colors.

I watched the presentation of the Doll 10 TSV with Doris and host Jill Bauer and Doris said she's wearing the light shade of foundation and Jill is wearing the medium shade.

I have worn light in the older cream compact version of the Dalton foundation and the shade was ok on me. It would be nice to see the color swatches next to each other. Doris may also want to change the picture of the model for the medium shade as model Joy doesn't work for QVC anymore. Joy used to model all of the Bare Minerals makeup -- what shade of BE foundation did she wear?

I just broke down and ordered the light in the TSV. I used to wear Fairly Medium in BE foundation. It had more neutral pink undertones than the light which was too yellow for my complexion. The light in the Doll10 foundation looks neutral so I think it will work well for me. The medium looks too yellow/orange for me.

I had not seen Joy for quite some time. Sorry to hear that she has left the Q I always enjoyed watching her. A beautiful woman who seemed to be down to earth and modest in spite of her beauty.

So in the online video Doris said Medium has a yellow undertone. Now on TNB with Sandra Bennet she said Medium has a neutral undertone. Go figure. I tend to agree with it being more neutral but talk about confusing double talk. SMH.

I can't tell my shade between fair and light. They did switch what they said the undertones are.

Even more bothersome IMO, those markers Doris is putting on her hand are dry-erase markers, not permanent markers. You can swipe them away with your fingers so the foundation didn't actually cover them. Not sure why they didn't use a black eyeliner or permanent marker unless it doesn't really cover that well? I find this deceptive and not sure the reason for it. The products look really good so why the trickery?

@Phelina I would say the light. It's very neutral and a little warmer than the fair in BE.

Great...@WenDoll10girl, I am so glad that Phelina was able to get in touch with you. I tried to direct her to you- since you had told me this was a quality product for yourself.

I 'know' in choosing any shade of foundation is difficult, if not matching, in person.

I am intrigued with the Hydragel; nothing like this `that I have use`, yet.

ALSO, the neutral, (which I have been told that is what I should use), but -try- to find one...almost impossible!

This will save me a trip to the cosmetic counter and be a guinea specimen for a hour+, also the blush & brush I can use.

I, also purchased the LIGHT more {neutral} / pink undertones and needing no great amount of yellow.

Thank you for responding, NAES.

I am a true light, no pink and no yellow undertones and went with light. In a few, very few, foundations I have gotten light/med but a true light works well for me as long as it is neutral. When the BE serum foundation first came out I got and used Bare Shell if that is any help.

I also got the IT CC in light but the color was just a tad off, bit dark and had undertones, wasn't neutral, at least not on me plus it was and stayed very sticky/tacky on me regardless how little I used so, in my opinion I would get light, just my opinion.

I love this foundation, love the whole kit.

edited to say, sorry I posted before reading all the posts so see you did order light. I hope to see a review posted by you and what you think. I love this and hope you do as well.

@doglover3, hello......

Question: Other than what you had posted\ ref: [ IT ] CC creme, did you compare IT to any other product foundation, i.e., Tarte?

The reason I ask is I have one of the original Tarte in ( light ) which has some yellow. Not so much that it is tacky - sticky or heavy. The former one( 8+ months old ) is leaning towards a more prominent yellow, but I use her little. About the amount of two pencil erases. Both are in ( light ). I use a generous amount of either Josie Maran oil and her white lotion moisturizer with spf47.

The only reason I choose a foundation \ any foundation is for the blush ( a light rosy ). With the oil, the foundation, I have what works for me, a beautiful glow. " This had taken me some time to learn >>>_ not_ all or any foundation can work for me.

Just a simple observation I wanted to share".

One of the most challenging small tasks in finding foundations, today...being in the Neutrals for pink undertones skins.

I appreciated your description image of IT's CC creme for yourself.

Also, knew from Mac foundations, there is a few neutrals. That was where I was going for color mapping, prior to this.

...have not use any OTC drugstore anything due to sensitive skin..

Always ask for a sample, enough for 2 applications, then summarize the compatibility for any allergic reaction.

Thank you again, NAES
