Question for Olive-Tan makeup users:

It seems I always have a hard time finding colors that work for me.

Have any of you here found one or more lines that regularly carry complimentary colors for you? I'm too old (45) to pull-off all the mismatched foundations, etc. I've made due with all these years, plus I enjoy my natural coloring and I want to enhance it, not mute it. I look better if makeup is too dark, and I look awful when it's too light. I've never been a regular wearer of foundation, but now I feel like I need it. (For Sheer I do love Make Up For Ever Face & Body Foundation in #34 or #18) but I haven't found a good match in powder, etc.

It's so hard to find complete "looks" that work! Even on sights like Makeup411, there's only one Beauty Breakdown where the actress's (sp?) coloring looks similar to my coloring, (Olga Kurylenko. Wish I looked like her in other ways too, LOL!) Mally here at Mally Beauty has blushes in pinks and mauves, which are the absolute worst on me. I piece together pieces from lots of lines, but I would so love to find one line that I can count on to have makeup that will be flattering. Any tips, hints, etc. will be very much appreciated.
