THANK YOU!!! If you have Olive skin, I doubt that you and I could both wear medium so I'm thinking I better go with the light..... hummm confused on what color to go with haha

CC cream swatches: Fair, Light, Medium (not a ton of difference between light/medium)

the bigger bottom swatch is IT BBUE in Medium.

I wear the fair & light cc cream mixed together, but the BBUE in medium. Confusing!!

What is BBUE? YOU ARE AMAZING, thank you for the AWESOME photos!!! I'm leaning towards light now that you posted this pics. I suppose I would be the same in the Celebration powder.

That is a GREAT idea to mix, I just hate to buy two right now.....

I wear light in the IT Celebration foundation and Medium in the CC cream. The Medium shade is VERY forgiving. I think you will be disappointed in the light since you seem to be a true medium.

I am fairly Medium in BE but BE Medium is WAY to dark for me. I usually wear a Light/Med in those brands that offer such. Seems like if I get Med. it's always to dark, if I get light then it's to light... I hate trying to pick shades, even if I am at the store it still seems hard for me to choose a shade!

The new Josie SPF did the exact same thing on me. I used very little and it's still tacky after several hours. I'm hoping it will be better during the winter, since I have very dry skin. I have the IT CC cream in medium (and I usually wear light) and it's not at all sticky. Dries quickly.

THANK YOU for chiming in!! & I am happy I am not alone regarding the Josie. I'm still not sure if I will keep the kit since really the only thing I might use is the milk on my face becasue in the past the oil would break me out. LOVE the color tube but it's not worth the price of the kit and it doesn't have good staying power. I suppose I would rather return it and use that $$ to get something that works rather than keeping items I'm not sure I will use......

Sandgirl, get the CC in light. Med-beige original in BE is about perfect on me, maybe a hair dark. I can wear fair or light in the CC but one is a little too light, one a little too dark. If you are just trying one, get light IMO. It has a peachy rather than muddy under-tone. I don't think it will be too light on you. It's really a light-medium to my eyes.

DESI - Thank you!!! I appreciate you chiming in. I think the pics above show the light as a light/med too.

Do you wear the Celebration? If so, what color?

I am 38yrs old, combination skin with dark spots and freckles, on the light side of Medium. I have used both products. To me, the IT CC Cream in Medium is too greasy for me to use yr round except for use in the Winter in New England. The Celebration foundation looks too cakey on my skin. In addition, my huge pores the Celebration foundation just sits in there looking obvious. I also find that you do repeatedly have to add more of the powder foundation in order to cover darkness. I have used the Light-Medium in the Celebration.
