suku, try this. u can buy a darker shade of foundation and mix them together and apply. i don't think it can double up as a concealer coz foundation is too thin for any decent coverage. nx time shd u get a foundation from watsons/guardian etc, do test it on your face and not the back of yr hand. apply a patch on your face, go out of the shop and to a place where the light is good and natural. if no natural daylight, find a floursecent one. u get more accurate buys that way.

agree with kaylin.. did that b4 (mix 2 shades).
even now, i am still mixing 2 shades cos sometimes u get darker after weekend sun and sometimes get lighter when u stay indoors for too long.
moreover, it is damn hard to find something that matches your skin. best to mix 2 shades to get what you exactly want.

Hi guys, looks like u having problem buying the right colour of make-up for your skin type?
Ever find a product that gives u money back guarantee. eg. if u hv bought the product n found that it does not suit yr skin type or u dislike the color u can exchange it for another colour or another product.

Suku,
For my case, sometimes I bought the wrong 2-way cake colour too, which happens a couple of times, in fact. What I did, is I just get a darker colour of foundation.
It looks fine on my face. ( or at least I thought so. )
Oh...Kaylin, any other way of testing colour? Read from a magazine that we can test it on the back of our hand....or apply near the our jawsline. If it blends in, its the right colour. But up till now, I am still trying to perfect the technique. *lol*
Actually, I don't like to apply those testers on my face. Its just too unhygienic for my sensitive skin.
