I really want to try this tinted moisturizer! But my problem is, what shade should I choose? I don't have any other way to get it than online, so I cant try it out beforehand.. I know that I am pale and that I have pink undertones, so it stands between r0 and r1, but I think that r0 maybe is too light, then again, I may be lighter than I realize myself.. I have tried to google swatches but that didn't help me much, any good advise to help me choose?

Because there is no way for you to test it out, I would just buy both. Unless OCC has a return policy, I would just start off with r0 & if it doesn't work for you return it & get r1.

I always follow this concept when it comes to foundations or tinted moisturizers: Always get a shade darker than you think you are. Just so that if you do turn out to be lighter than the packaged shade, you can lighten it by adding a bit of moisturizer.

Not saying this is professional advice, but it works for me. Hope you can find the right shade. And if you order too light, I think OCC has a great return policy. :)

I just ordered the r1! If it's to dark then I'll just order the lighter one and sell this one cheep to one of my friends, no problem :) But thank you so much for the tips, might try to add a bit of moisturizer! About the OCC return policy, I can't benefit from that because I ordered from allcosmeticswholesale.com, if I was going to order from OCC I would have to email them to get the shipping information and such, so it was just easier to order from allcosmetics.

I own their foundations and depending on if I get some sun or not, I tend to mix r0 and r1. You might want to keep both just in case depending on if you go outside a lot. If you do that and mix, you'll have twice the product if you end up loving it :)
