I don't know what to do. I have blue/purple and green veins on my wrists, I don't tan and my skin is yellow. I can't seem to find the right foundation. I try to match my neck and chest (they are a little bit lighter than my face, normal) but I can't find a foundation "yellow" enough, after I apply on my face it always looks pinkier in natural light. All the foundations that I've tried and bought had a yellow undertone, I've even tried sephora's color iq, but the options are always so dark. Will I ever find the right shade?? Or should I just give up wearing foundation?? What should I do??

If your really that yellow, you may be interested in contacting your physician to inquire about your liver functions.

I don't have any suggestions regarding makeup. I'm sorry to be so unhelpful.

Have you gone to the beauty counter at sephora or just department store makeup counter to get color matched?

Have you tried any of Bobby Browns of MUFE foundations? they have a lot w yellow undertones. as long as there is no obvious difference in color from your face to your neck and your chest your good. I think it would be hard for it to match exactly unless you customize it yourself and mix a couple of different shades together.

I've got very yellow undertones and I use cover fx. it took the associate a minute longer than he expected to match me because I'm so yellow tan but I love my foundation :)

Thank you dolls! I was also thinking that my skin might look pinkier even with foundation, since my cheeks and chin are normally a little red (sensitive). How could I neutralize mud skin?

Smashbox has a green primer that will neutralize the red. Paula's choice has a liquid that would do the same
