I'm a dark skinned girl. I'm in the middle I'm not too dark and not too light I can never find a foundation that's in the middle or ever matches my skin tone I always find that it is way too dark or too light! Does anyone have any ideas of a foundation that would suit me?? and I forgot to mention most foundations tend to look ashy on me ;) p.s I've tried Mac, bobby brown, cover girl, Mary Kay and maybelline.

I think if you go to sephora they can help you find the right foundation, and ull know before you buy it bcuz they can apply on your face to make sure it matches.

Thanks heaps! I live in Australia so I don't think we have sephora here. I was looking for something I can get online. Australian stores are very bias they don't have a lot of options for darker skinned people. :)

Theatrical makeup tends to come with every shade you can think of. try Ben Nye, Graftobian, Kryolan, and Joe Blasco. I sometimes have that problem as well and learned that you will have to buy two usually a winter shade (when you get pale) and a summer shade (when you get tan). and adjust. There's also the technique of color adjusting where you neutralize the redness or yellowness or making it darker. Enkore on youtube has a great tutorial on that.
