PINK/COOL TONED FOUNDATION...??

Dazlin — Sat, 16 Aug 2025 18:31:47 GMT

I went to check out Neutrogena Healthy skin spf 30 today. Online the ivory looked like cool pink...in person it was dark and very yellow.

I looked up reviews and some said its not the same anymore, leans yellow and it's too dark for porcelain skin.

So any suggestions for a porcelain/fair foundation with spf, and must be cool pink pink toned...please let me know.

My skin is normal, but like something hydrating, nothing matte either. I'd prefer drugstore brand, must have spf even though I wear sunscreen...thanks!!

I looked at everything in Walmart today...all i see is yellow, and too dark.

Consider Bare Minerals. I find their skin tone charts to be very accurate.

@ Dazlin .... I have similar concerns with my coloring. What has worked well for me is RMS Super Radiance 30 spf in light aura, and the Beauty Bioscience spf Skin Perfector (has a slight pink tint). Neither is a true founation, but most "makeup founations" are too pigmented which make them too dark or yellow. Also, RMS Sun Coverup spf 50 runs very light.

@JUDY FL ...I can't find beauty bioscience...comes up slightly different names...bio?...and im not seeing the skin perfector...who sells it? Does it show shades?

The RMS in Aura looks nice...but is it very glowy...looks shiny??

Bare Minerals is the only foundation that matches my pink undertones. Everything else is way too yellow.

do you mean the tinted moisturizer (I use the matte in the lightest shade) or do you mean the powder foundation? I used to use Fair in that.

I think I need a cool tone as well. I'm fair and Coolish toned. I look best in pink blushes.

I only used tinted sunblocks (so a lighter consistency than foundations) with pink finishing powders on top (new find that I love. They give me some rosy color that make me look alive).

I use MDSolarSciences Mineral tinted creme in SPF 30, or Dr Denese tinted daycream SPF40 mixed with the untinted MDSolarSciences mineral creme spf 50 (to lighten) or Laura Geller Spackle Primer with SPF 30.

I've never found a foundation I like....they are either too yellow or masklike and make me look older. I prefer myself in these tinted sunblocks topped with one of these pink powders: Doll10 Pink Powder, Wet N Wild photofocus soft pink loose powder, or Loreal Infallible Blur-Fection loose powder Med/deep Pink and Light Pink (new find, I love)

@GingerHead ...interesting...new to me , and I've been wanting to look into the pink powders as well.

I recently bought loreal serum spf 50, really nice, but so yellow, lightest shade too.....so maybe one these pink powders will help. But im running low on my foundations, so im looking.

I agree about the mask like foundations...I prefer to keep it light and not heavy. Thank you.

Have you tried Loreal True Match foundation? I've been thinking about trying this.

It's highly rated and has, what they say are cool tones as noted by a letter. C for cool, N for Neutral and W for warm. Color C0.5 or C1 look like they may work, not sure or even a neutral color.....

From Amazon and is cheap.....May want to look in store though....

@mollybrownmom

First ... Welcome!

Second ... Go to the Bare Minerals foundations here on QVC, and check which face and shade best match your skin.

Only your eye can determine skin tone matches from the faces and coloring.

@ Dazlin ...... Sorry ... the Skin Perfector is from BeautyBio. HSN sold it. I no longer see it there, or on their website. The RMS light aura is not shiny on my skin .... tho my skin is dry. It gives me a healthy/ dewy glow and I use it daily, in small amounts. If you try it, just make sure you can return it if you find it too glowy. Hope you find something you like! Looks like you are getting some good suggestions.

Dazlin — Sun, 17 Aug 2025 13:53:30 GMT

@GingerHead ...I think the Loreal true match was one i looked at in Walmart...didn't lean cool/pink...but honestly I don't recall the #'s...just looked at everything and didn't see anything. Also, I was looking for an spf foundation. I may go back and look again...thx!

Oh, btw...I have the Elf pink powder in my cart 😀

Re: PINK/COOL TONED FOUNDATION...??

Dazlin — Sun, 17 Aug 2025 13:57:34 GMT

@JUDY FL the RMS looks nice in the video, but yes, I'd like to try it 1st. I'll do a search and see if Ulta or Sephora or who else may carry it...I have those 2 stores here. Thank you!

@GingerHead @Judy FL ...I just looked at Missha perfect BB Cream, spf 42, or without. The #13 looks really good and got great 5 star reviews on Amazon...ill put it my cart...still searching.

I read about it on Reddit.

I've had good results with the Doll10 line as well as Laura Gellar baked line. Both of those offer the color and the multi product in one combinations. Both look very natural and are easy to remove. Hope one of these works for you.

Re: PINK/COOL TONED FOUNDATION...??

Dazlin — Sun, 17 Aug 2025 16:53:33 GMT

@monicakm ...I think im going to order it...saw it on REDDIT, and got great reviews on Amazon.

Let us know how you like it.

I may get it by tomorrow if I order now.

Oh, nice. I'll have to check that out.

Also, I'm losing my mind. I told you about the Loreal True Match and that I was thinking about trying it myself.....well I have it in my stash! At least one of the varieties of True Match that are offered (I think there are more than 1). haha

I've been using my tinted sunblock and pink power exclusively for so long that I forgot about it.

So, I tried it this morning and it's a good foundation and a good color match for me with no yellow at all.

Also, I do like to bump up my color in foundation (if I use it at all) and err on the side of a little darker, while still matching my neck (for the most part) because if I completely match my face I look more ghost like and older....so it's ever so slightly darker than my face (not by much).

Anyway, just another option for you.

It's Loreal True Match Nude hyaluronic tinted serum in the color 1-2.5 Rosy Light. I took a picture to show that I really have it and to display how crazy I am! haha

Dazlin — Sun, 17 Aug 2025 18:22:52 GMT

@GingerHead ...if you don't care about the spf in foundations, another one i love, is Revlon Illuminating...I use the lightest shade. It's not pink, but it's light enough and not yellow.

I'll go with a foundation with an spf...I just like the extra

I do use a sunblock anyway...but if I wanted something quick, I like the spf in all my products...moisturizer too.

Re: PINK/COOL TONED FOUNDATION...??

GingerHead — Sun, 17 Aug 2025 18:32:14 GMT

@Dazlin

OK, thanks. Will look into that as well.

I'm the same about SPF. I'm dilligent about using it everyday and that's why I just stick with my tried and true tinted Sunblocks (fewer layers and they offer a primer type finish that's satin/matte and blurring).

Good luck on your hunt!
