Resolved Question

I have very fair skin and cant find the right foundation..help please?

i wear Estée Lauder foundation in 'ECRU' which i think is the palest u can get in it. i get it from debenhams skin care, they compared the colours to my skin but everything was too dark. even the palest 'ecru' .
its good makeup good cover, and if its the right colour to your skin it looks like your wearing nothing.
Its still very orange looking on my face...so im thinking of trying something different.
Whats the best foundation for pale skin? it has to have good cover and last long on your face.

oh and if u can can u tell me what shops i can get these in? i live in the UK

thank u xx

Whats with the one saying you have anaemia? You dont have it!! Im Irish with red hair and obviously i have pale skin and yeah i have tried loads of things aswell and i think the best foundation is id Bare Minerals... I use the colour fairly light! You can but it in Debenhams in Ireland but not too sure about England. Hope i helped...=] x

• I also have very fair skin. Just today, in fact, I bought two new foundations!
  
  Try Maybelline, new Dream Creamy foundation - light porcelain is really fair, I'm wearing it now and it doesn't look like I have any make up on at all!
  
  Also, Maybelline mineral foundation - ivory or again, light porcelain.
  Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse in Ivory or Nude is also very, very fair.
  
  GOOD LUCK!
• Boots do a natural range as well as the usual No. 7 etc, which as well as being very cheap (usually £3 and under) has loads of different shades. You might have to test them, or you can ask an assistant to match your skin tone :)
• try bare escentuals mineral foundation. it's the best one i've ever tried. I know they do a sprecific shade for very pale skin. it's not cheap though. have a look at there website or qvc stock it too.
• well if you're very pale you should go to the doctor because you could have something like anemia which is causing your pale skin. MAC stores have great makeup and have most shades
