Maybe the Maybelline Fit Me shade in Coconut would work but I'm not sure?

Loreal true match super blend able liquid foundation. They have a lot of shades and different undertones. Here is a pic of the models wearing their shades

IN that case, I would check out cover FX at sephora. They have their custom cover cream, natural finish liquid foundation and custom cover drops.
I believe not too long ago they actually added even more deeper shades to their custom cover cream and similar to L'orèal, they have different undertones as well so you'd definitely find a shade that's the right depth and tone :)

I agree with Aurora on the cover fx foundations! I also really like born this way by TooFaced, they have a nice range of shades!

There is another thread floating around discussing good highlighters for deep skin tones and it mentioned that you should stay away from white/frosty highlighters because they can make deep skin tones look ashy. So for your highlight choose a warm bronze and it will look gorgeous :)
