The Q-tip test
To determine the shade that best suits your ruddy complexion, dip a cotton swab into the foundation and apply it to the center of your jaw. Check to see if the shade matches your skin tone - it should appear invisible. If it does, don't waste a moment buying that shade.
Understanding your insinuations
You should buy a foundation that matches your tone. Our skin is classified into three types of shades: cold, warm and neutral. To buy a ruddy complexion that matches your skin tone, it is essential to know your skin tone. If the foundation doesn't match your skin tone, the color will gradually fade from orange to copper and pine to pink.
Here's how you can determine your skin tone
If your skin tans easily and doesn't get sunburned, it means it has a higher content of melanin (the pigment that defines skin color). It is therefore likely that your skin has a yellow to ocher or warm tint.
In addition, if your skin burns easily in the sun, it means it contains much less melanin, which gives it a cooler pink or reddish tint.
Neutral skin tones have no obvious yellow to olive or pink shades. Girls with these skin tones tend to find the ideal foundation easily.
Understanding the different types of foundations
Not all foundations are made for all skin types. You need to understand your skin - is it oily, dry or normal, and buy accordingly. Liquid ruddy complexion (or cream), tinted moisturizer, oil-based foundation, clear foundation, mousse or whipped foundation, mineral foundation are some of the foundations you can buy after assessing your skin type. If you want a foundation to correct blemishes, cuts, scars on your face, choose the Ideal Vichy Illuminating Foundation. It offers the most complete and natural coverage for the face.
You can use it to conceal minor or major skin imperfections such as post-surgical redness, bruises, vitiligo’s, rosacea and other skin problems. You can also buy Vichy Derma blend foundation in online stores.
