Mac is the best product for

Mac is the best product for make up, it doesnt give you spots or blemish...
i love it, my sis had the collection of them, they are just amazing.. every1 is using it.. even celebrity...too, you dont get the mac as in white colour,
it has different colour shades too, also
NC - Neutral Cool and NW-Neutral Warm. Warms are more peachy/pinky and Cools are more of a bluish/yellow.

Hope i help :)

MAC foundation is really

MAC foundation is really bad. The pigment in the foundation darkens after a few hours and it looks pasty, not natural looking. Christian Dior has a few good shades for Indian skin. Shiseido, Japanese company, has this creamy foundation that makes your skin look moist, dewy. I use this one in winter. But the colors are for white skin.

I want to try MAC foundation

I want to try MAC foundation too, because it's so hard finding a shade that matches my skintone. I usually have to mix 2-3 colors together to get close enough to my skin color. I know W must stand for Warm, and C must stand for Cool.
I want to try their face & body foundation.

k first don't reverse

k first don't reverse exactly what i called you. its called being 'original' which ure not. And i know many dark women who would take ure comment and feel insecure laterwards. ure the one who started trash talking in our earlier convo therfore again i prooved that ure uneducated. and by the way im still serious that you should get in touch with the outside world and learn how to etiquettly and properly interact with people. anyways im gonna stop wasting time on your pathetic excuse of a human and come on this page for the reason i was supposed to. PINKY: you can use the the sephore line of foundations, its a new line that came out, i live in california and it gets sold here but u can also purchase it depending on were you live,, u can also go online and buy it. i have the south indain skin tone also and sephore compliments our skin so good luck



You just described yourself

You just described yourself very nicely there, thank you...now I have a detailed describtion of you, I thought you would be something like that fat, illiterate, no friends, insecure, you know just plain retarded.....
You again proved that you are really stupid or have hallucinations, I make dark skinned women feel they have to take this 'joke' seriously therefor I make them feel insecure? what? how messed up is your brain?
Well since you have such a great sense of humor and have so much connection with the outside world? Why do you get so offensive with your comments and have such a trashy way to express yourself, when I am just saying my opinion?

by saying illiterate i mean

by saying illiterate i mean uneducated and by saying unduacted i mean that u have no connection with the outside world because you have no sense of humour, first of all get ure fat house wife ass off the couch and pc and go make some friends and social life to get to know how the real world turns. and ure a STERIO TYPE because ure the only person who is getting ofended and ure making dark skinned women feel that they need to take the joke offensivly therefore making them feel insecure about their color. so take ure bulshit comments and shove them where they belong!!



Are you retarded or

Are you retarded or something, how/when in the world did I make someone feel insecure about their color? I am freaking defending them and you get at me with this bullshit! You are most probably illiterate....
I know people should not be insecure because of their color and that's why I said my opinion about that stupid comment, but you are so dumb and say I make people insecure....

I didnt write that comment

I didnt write that comment but alam it was probably meant for a joke, women shouldnt be insecure about their skin,this is a huge let down in our society becauseevery second brown person is embarressed about their skin color. Im very dark myself and i do not feel like that because i have my head on top of my shoulders and i accept who i am for what i am. Its illiterate women like you alam that makes others feel insecure.

You can try O60 for yellowish undertones.
Good luck

nc is for golden undertones

nc is for golden undertones and nw is for pink undertones. the person who said that they sell u a darker shade is absolutely right. i'm not a person who wants to look fair with a lighter foundation, i like my tan complexion but dont wanna look dull either with a darker tone. what i would advise is try it on u, walk around the mall, maybe go home with it and then come back and buy it if u like. its something ur gonna be stuck for the next six mnths, so better make the right decision. it helps a lot to take a friend as well. i use the studio tech compact they have,nc30, its fabolous for medium to full coverage, i've occasional breakouts and it would completely hide the blemishes. good luck!

what ever you do, do not buy

what ever you do, do not buy the shade of foundation used on you in the store, until you go outside and see it in natural light! I ahd this experience and was sold a much too dark shade and then they refused to take it back.I ended up finding my true colour which looks beautiful-NC42. Good luck!



MAC liquid foundation is

MAC liquid foundation is really good, I also use it and I'm very satisfied with it....good coverage and it is very natural and matte!
I use NC 30...I also like L'Oreal True Match Mineral Make-Up!
