    Hi there, I have a question I'm hoping you'd be so kind to answer. I'm a cool toned gal, I have always been good w/make-up BUT not liquid foundation/concealer bc I've only ever worn some sort of power. Still at 45 I'm able to just pull off supergoops mineral powder sunscreen. Now for my question/concern… I do get the undertone thing however I have some pretty significant dark under eyes (actually it's the hollows) I can not seem to find a good match for concealer. (I've tried so many, high-end & drugstore) it always seems to look somewhat "whitish" bc I'm cool toned I buy cool toned concealer also I know I should be looking for something pinkish/salmon in color. My darkness is bluish/purple but I just read somewhere last nite that It's best to use warm toned concealer to avoid the "whitish ghostly under eye look I've referred to) So should I be trying a warm or neutral toned concealer or do I stick with some cool toned color? Praying I find my match 1 day…… plz & thank you

    TY that was an amazing demonstration – matching with no makeup on. I probably would have doubted it if I hadn't seen it myself. Next time I go buy foundation – clean face!

    How do you know what undertones the foundations have? Sounds so silly but I’ve seen lots of videos about what undertone your skin is, but I don’t understand what this means when it comes to looking for foundation – lol!

    I have pink skin tone & it seems like everything is either yellow or orange. I have ruddy skin down my neck & chest, plus my face. When I have someone in the store to help me they always want to put yellow on my face.

    Yeah there’s no way to get samples in the drugstore so there’s got to be another way to do it and you’re right the lighting there’s terrible because most of the time it’s fluorescent lighting so there’s got to be a better way for us to try to figure out what to get in the drugstore getting it in the drug stores like Russian roulette you don’t know until you get home and then you spent the money on it because there’s no possible way to test it

    Thank you for sharing another very informative video. I've just watched the undertone video you done and you said in that one that you're a warm undertone, but in this one you said you're a neutral undertone. Have I misheard or can you be both ? Sorry for the daft questions too 🙈 ❤
