So what’s my verdict? Ultimately I think Findation’s useful.
#Maybelline color match skin
I can only assume Findation selected it because in Maybelline’s range of darker shades, that color’s the closest to the one I currently use - this is an important thing for WOC to take into consideration, as our skin tone is often much harder to match. Having seen that shade online and in person, I know it’s not right for me. In Maybelline’s new SuperStay 24-Hour Full Coverage Foundation, I was matched to 355 Coconut. Of course, the Findation system isn’t totally perfect. Then, you choose a specific product from that brand. First, you select a brand of foundation that you’ve used before. That’s how I found Findation, the website that promises to use the info you provide about your current foundation to match you with dupes from other brands.įindation offers a tool to help you color match different foundations to your skin, based on formulas and shades that you've already used. Recently, I’ve taken to Googling makeup dupes. The last time I took a chance with a foundation shade, I was way off-base (no pun intended). In the past I’ve resorted to guessing, but it’s been risky.
I don’t live near a Sephora, and local stores don’t always have testers. And one of my favorite staple products - besides a bomb lip color - is a well-matched foundation.īut finding one is easier said than done. Today, I still have to figure out contouring and highlighting, but I can handle my own makeup basics. Sometime in my early 20s, a friend - and a fellow Black woman - gave me a makeover. Other than experimenting with lipstick when I was young, I never made much of an effort to figure it all out. I came late to the cosmetics game, so it's no surprise that I've had a challenging time finding foundation that matches my skin tone.
