Thanks!


I'd heard of Becca and prescriptives only a time or two...not really familiar with those, forgot about bobbi, and never heard of the rest def.going to look into them.

I hate feeling restricted to one brand/product I feel like I need to learn about all the options I/we have....My local stores only carry a brand or two and not all the products, my ulta doesnt carry that much, and the higher end places are a ways away, plus im broke/college so those are only treats anyway.

Makeup Forever is definitely up there as far as colors for dark skinned women are concerned. Check out your local Sephora. :)

I know we are posting consumer brands but there are a lot of pro brands that have dark, dark, dark colors with lots of undertones. Many of these companies have been around for ages like Ben Nye, Kryolan, RCMA, etc.

I personally use Temptu S/B (I'm either color 9 or 10) almost every day. It's a very light coverage, a little goes a looooong way. I use about 3-4 drops on my whole face. It is airbrush foundation, but it can be hand applied.

Warning don't get the aqua that really should go through an airbrush and once it's on your face you can't touch it up too much. You'll just make a mess.
