If you live near an Ulta go over and get matched.

I wondered about the presentation and no one being light or fair too. I thought the blonde model would be light, that confused me as I'm at least as dark as both Helen and the blonde model. I wear light and am getting the TSV from last year with the large CC cream and it looks a little odd on me. I can wear beige to golden tones, so the color's throwing me off. I know I wear the medium in BBUE and that usually comes in light kits, though it doesn't quite match undertone-wise but DOES cover. My skin's light-medium with golden undertones, but I think medium would be a bit too dark for me.

The one thing throwing me off is the lipstick. It's the prettiest color when looking at it but looks a bit washed out on. That was the tipping point for me as I wanted all of it but the CC cream since I'm getting one three times the size, and am interested especially the concealer and lipstick with the finishing powder looking interesting but not quite a must-have. Of course, I love IT brushes! Decisions decisions!

I posted these swatches on one of the threads yesterday, in case they help. It's just my arm and only Light, Medium and Tan, but it's better than nothing. First is the product just slapped on, second is after I blended them out a little bit and let them set. I noticed in the shows today Jamie was swatching on her hand, so maybe she will do that with the CC colors in the presentations!

Hope this helps a little, in the middle range anyway!

Hey ~ This is from another Thread... Maybe this will help you. Mistic

Thanks so much. That does help. I do think I'd be a light. I think they all look so yellowy on until they are blended in.

That was a disappointing presentation, not one model in fair or light!

ITA What was Jamie and QVC thinking? Almost every model and each host in medium--poor representation of a TSV. That made NO sense at all. I also didn't see her swatching colors so it must have been in a 3 a.m. or different presentation.

I don't like the lipstick color. It will turn on me and be too brown/rose. I look good in bright pinks.

I also wondered why Jamie is not showing any fair or light presentations. Is there a problem with these shades? I am very hard to match in foundation, as I was told that I am a neutral. I am going to try to get to Ulta today and look at the colors before I buy.

I stayed up last night to watch the presentation. It was indeed disappointing. I couldn't believe they keep showing this only in medium on the models. They should have shown each shade on the models. I agree very poor presentation for a TSV.

The new product is not at Ulta. I have the regular CC cream in the tube, but the colors could be different.

They said it was the same product in a new delivery system.

I also wish they'd show some variety in the models. Why never a dark model? (I'm not dark but..I'd like to see if it looks good on dark women. If someone I know with dark skin were to ask me, is this good, how can I honestly answer?)

There has to be a reason why Jamie is not showing the Fair and Light shades.. Concerning and disappointing! Also, I am so tired of seeing her and the models rub their faces so harshly to get the 'redness' and then cover it with the foundation. Poor sales tactics!
