@WenDoll10girl that would be fantastic if it worked out that way! That way I wouldn't have to return anything

I can't really wear IT's CC cream because fair is too light and light is too dark (among other reasons). I agree - the "reviewer" made Light look really light on her hand, but i thought it looked darker on her face. She did say the blush and lipstick looked great on her in real life, but that they didn't come across on camera as well.

I actually like my current foundation and shade (Cover FX), but this thread drew me into the TSV and even after endless debates on what shade to get I'm very impatient for it to arrive
@sly1216 You should be fine with both. They are not that different from each other. The light is just a little warmer, so perfect for the summer.

@WenDoll10girl well that just seals the deal for me. If I do order it, it will be fair for me. I am more neutral to pink undertones.

@HappyDaze Truth! I will let you know when mine comes in!

I use Cover FX in P30, which is labeled "light to medium, pink undertones" but it matches me perfectly. Any other brand, and I'm in between fair and light. Too Faced and Tarte run way to yellow for me. Laura Mercier used to match pretty well, but I'm on the fence on her cruelty-free status so I started looking for alternatives a year or so ago (which is where Cover FX came in). I can find perfect powder matches from Lily Lolo and Alima Pure, but i need a liquid and they don't make it. I know there are other brands out there but I'm just tired of spending money and trying out different ones. But, this TSV did look promising............

@sly1216 oh yay another cruelty free cosmetics user! Oh yes, Tarte's was always wayyy too yellow for me too. I was never really impressed with LM. I know many love the products but I was just kind of "meh" about them. I haven't used her products in quite a few years so I don't know the cruelty free status of her line anymore.

@HappyDaze I hope you like it. Just remember you need very little, much less than used on the presentation.

@HappyDaze Yes, I'm a cruelty-free gal. I've found a lot of really great alternatives, that honestly work better than the other brands, just not as accessible as the brands in Sephora and Ulta. I enjoy lurking in the threads because I know when you post on a brand that it is cruelty-free. I follow Logial Harmony, Phyrra, and My Beauty Bunny for CF brands. I've been sticking to my same brands for a while now, so that's why I am a little anxious to get the Doll 10 set - hopefully new goodies to play with!!

Also - I LOVED LM! I would use only her products if I were confident she was CF. There is just some discrepancies in sources on whether she is CF or not. She currently makes my absolutely favorite lipstick, and I have 4 spare tubes so I'm safe for a while, but I'm still undecided if I will use her lipsticks after these are gone.

I received my TSV Friday. I love wearing natural looking makeup. So for me the blush and the lip colors were perfect. They give me a more youthful look. As for the foundation and the concealer, my skin has a yellow undertone but is also on the light side. I was really questioning whether I should order the light or medium. I watched the video on the foundation in which Doris advised that if you are in doubt, order medium. I did order the medium. It looks great. The only piece I have not tried is the mascara, so I cannot report on how it looks.

@saqqqara Glad you are enjoying it. I saw the video posted here about the blush and lipstick and think I would like them. I regret waiting so long to order. I guess I will have to wait until the 14th and hope they have the fair shade back in stock. Otherwise I may order the light again not to miss out on the other items.
