I have very light skin, what color of bare escentuals do I need?

I too am very pale. I use medium beige. The lighter shade made me look like a ghost. Then I finish with warmth. It's an all over type blush. I use it on my cheek bones. I have been using Bare Escentuals for over 10 years now. I wouldn't use anything else. The ones you see in stores that have mineral in their names do not compare. I'm always told I have beautiful skin, I'm 61 years old.

I also, am a pain warrior! I also, was on disability and left a very high paying position in medicine. I will pray for you and please know I do know how it feels to be in pain. I walk beside you as far as that goes. It sure is not fun and the older one gets the harder it is to cope and do things. But , we get through it!

I would get the lightest color. In the summer I a color a step up from the one I use in the winter. Hope this helps.it is best to get summer bisque and mineral veil to go along with the base color in my opinion. I have splotchy skin. So I use several bare mineral products and when I do my skin looks radiant.

Contrary to old advice or recommendations (go 1 to 1-1/2 shades lighter than foundation), it is best to match your skin color (foundation color) as closely as possible.

I don't have a very pinky/white skin neither yellow/tan. I got the #2 and it's lighter than how it's shown on the pictures. I think #1 must be way too light

Translucent is very very light. Almost white. I think creamy natural would work for you. But if you are extremely fair translucent would probably work. I've never used bare minerals so can't offer a comparison.

Should be like off white, not be yellow. Better order it directly from SkinMedica.

I'm medium toned and use 23. I think this is most common shade for asians. However, if you have fair complexion, then 21 would work.

it really depends on your skin tone. I use beige 1 because the ivory is too light.

This is suitable for dark skins. It has no color and really makes your skin soft and ready for makeup or even wear it alone.

A medium pressure bed as well as some self tanner afterwards (Try Jergens gradual Glow) and you will have some color, I'm sure. I would try a SMOKE its a tingling tanner or try Sweet & Sexy Black bronzer. Good luck hunn.

You can try soft ivory or buff (the step down from the natural beige). The soft ivory may be too light on it's on, but you can actually mix the colors to create a color specific for you. With the yellow tone to your skin, you'll need to stay away from colors that tend to make the yellow appear greenish, stick with colors (pinks, not blue undertones). L'oreal has a really nice white finishing veil that can also be mixed with the natural beige. Another trick is to add a touch of the base to the lobes of your ears so that the makeup doesn't appear "maskish". Also, when applying, add a small amount to the neck in small downward strokes blending well, a dab in between the clavical area, and the bust to create a shadow and enhance. Hope this helps!!!...

I have very light skin color, but didn't have much of a choice when I purchased this via Amazon. It seems MaxFactor doesn't make this any more; it's not available in the stores and the prices on Amazon keeps going up, so I suspect supplies are getting low. I took what they had which is called "Natural" and it's fine for me. If you used Ivory before, this should be okay, but I'm no expert.

I have medium colored skin and it blends in but provides little or no coverage.

I'm very fair skinned and the medium powder works great for me. It's still very sheer, so I would go with medium!

I think it would depend on your skin time and the look you are trying to achieve. If you are wanting a soft look I really like the blonde dipbrow. I think any ash color would work. I believe there is an ash blonde color. :) I also hear chocolate is a nice color but it may be to harsh.

I have fair skin and ordered the lightest shade. For summer I think I'd prefer a little darker.... medium/light, or whatever it's called. Also, my skin is 75 yrs old, so I'm diluting with a little plain moisturizer to look more natural.

Not sure if the color will be nice for you. I am Brazilian olive skin and looks perfect for me! But as I said, I am olive skin!
