I'd an awful moment today when i was out, I'd decided to use clinique's almost make up in fair today as i'd left my normal fondation in my boyfriends house by mistake and i thought i'd be safe with that as it was a light foundation and it did say fair afterall.
Well I put it on at 7am when it was still getting light so the light wasn;t the best but i did blend it well and double check for lines as per usual, then off i went into town. Well on my way home around noon, i had a look in my little compact mirror and there it was, an awful orange/yellow line just under my jaw where my make up stopped, i've never been so embarrassed.
Anyway to the point of my rant, i'm so sick of makeup lines marketing things labled fair that aren't fair at all, i mean i am quite pale which i love, i'd be lighter than nc15 but hell there are alot fairer people out there than me (i'm so jealous of them) and it just is really starting to piss me off that there is nothing really out there for us. I mean I bought the clinique almost makeup on the point that it was sheer so I thought it would be more forgiving and easy to blend out while evening my colouring a bit, but to leave a very clear visible orange/yellow line that was just embarrassing.
Come on make up brands start making real fair make up for real fair people, i can promise you there is a good market for it.
Oh and i'm not just venting about clinique it just that was what I happened to be wearing today, I find this rant seems to be true about most brands. Fair shades are not all the pale and usually always yellow tones which really sucks for us cool complexion girls.
