My skin color is really light, not pale but fair I would say. And it's yellow toned.
I use Maybelline FitMe in 110 if that helps.

So the thing is, I really want blonde hair but it just doesn't go well with my skin color! I've tried neutral blonde and it made me look very ill and tired all the time :/ Golden blonde might suit me but I just think it looks orange all the time.

So can you help me? What should I do? Is there any blonde color that would be good for my skin tone?

Here's a photo of my current foundation:

Honestly I hate to say this but blonde is not one of those hair colors that suits everyone. One of my sisters tried to go blonde s few years ago and she just looked wrong with blonde hair. Personally, I'm the same way. There's no shade of blonde that will suit me, which I think is because my hair is naturally black and so are my eyebrows. I just look weird with even the slightest hints of blonde in my hair. It just doesn't work for some people unfortunately.

Hannah W, yes that's kind of true :/ Maybe I'll try ombre instead :)

Ombre does definitely suit some people :) here I found a picture of my sister blonde. It just doesn't look right, you know?

I agree blonde is a hard thing to pull off. I am a natural blonde, but have dark eyebrows, so it didn't look right. I think ombre would look great on you!

I think an ombre or platinum blonde would look great on you. Don't worry, I can't pull blonde hair off either :) Oh well I guess right? Anyways, I hope I helped! Xx

Thank you all so much for your answers! :) I think I'll wait a little bit 'til my hair grows and then do a balayage or ombre :)
