I’m a fairly pale person (with I believe a red undertone) and I have very dark eye sockets. Even though I feel like my foundation is about the right shade, I feel like my skin tone looks sick and lacking in color even with the bronzer blush etc. Especially the foundation and concealers which work well together! Any tips or tricks? I’m sick of people asking me if I’m sick
Although I’m nowhere near pale, I had a similar experience with a foundation. And since I loved its coverage and texture so much, I didn’t want to switch to another foundation. So I tried mixing my foundation with the Body Shop Dry Shimmering Oil (it’s a shimmery bronze facial and body oil). And it worked quite well for me! And after mixing it with the foundation, the shimmer specks do not show at all. But you could use any facial oil (like jojoba oil) and add a tiny bit of any bronzer in it and mix it with your foundation. It adds some colour and a beautiful dew in your skin. I don’t know if it would work the same for you or not, but it’s worth a try I suppose.
