but it is FREEZING in Texas and none of us are really sure how to handle it.
But the important part in this post is... I am in DESPERATE need of your help ladies.
I have SUPER pale skin, and cannot find a foundation to match in my extra pasty winter monthes. I have tried nearly every drugstore brand and went to clinique today and even their lightest was too dark, so off that the guy wouldnt sell it to me. I have problem skin so would prefer good coverage but im desperate for anything at this point. Bobbi Brown is the only one who makes a shade light enough but the formula doesnt get along with my skin.
Do yall know any good foundations in super pale shades?I will seriously love you forever if you help me fix this.
yall are seriously the best.

best stuff in the entire world -- i use the "nude" color, and i am pretty pale, but if you need an even lighter shade, they have one! i use this instead of foundation.
try just a tinted moisturizer with a transparent powder. :) Should do the trick and it won't feel heavy in the slightest! Love your shoes btw!
Bare Minerals. This stuff is INSANE. You put it on, and you're like, "What the heck, this didn't do anything. It looks like I didn't even put makeup on. Crap. There goes all that money." Then you wait fifteen minutes and your face will look FLAWLESS. Seriously. Like someone airbrushed you. Or you suddenly regenerated your baby skin. This stuff is gold, and won't break you out ever.
Sorry about the cold! At least you look cute! ;) I love that scarf and pink sweater! It's actually been a lot warmer here in Flagstaff than usual.
As for foundation, I use MAC brand. Being extremely pale myself, I often have trouble finding foundation that is light enough, so I can definitely relate. MAC products are a little pricey but definitely worth it! I started using MAC when my sister-in-law bought me some products for my wedding and I'm addicted. They have great lipsticks as well!
hey girl! love your new header!! :) My favorite foundation is Revlon Colorstay liquid foundation! :) It's great!.. full coverage and lot's of colors to choose from! Since I'm out of that right now... I'm using Loreal True Match super blendable makeup in Shell Beige. I'm also going pale and in the bottle, this foundation might look a bit dark... but I'm tellin' ya it blends GREAT and matches your skin color beautifully so I don't have to worry about looking like an Oompa Loompa! :) Hope that helps!!
I don't know how light the lightest shade is, but I just got an illuminating tinted moisturizer type-deal from Jouer (http://www.jouercosmetics.com/) - its a little pricey because its a department store makeup counter brand, but the little bit of illumination really brightens you up!
I'm also loving the little bit that I can see of your sweater, and I wanted to let you know that I tagged you as a stylish and versatile blogger. Head over to my newest post http://inmyclst.blogspot.com/2011/02/me-stylish-and-versatile-blogger.html to see what the rules are!
oohh...I don't know. But I do know that there are some true match foundations and tinted moisturizers at the drug store that miiight work. Some are far lighter than they look on the shelf, so you just have to try them. Good luck!
I asked my super pale friend just now and she said she wears Estee Lauder Double Wear in Shell.
I love this cute, cozy look, and the pink scarf looks gorgeous next to your skin. I'm pretty pale myself, and I go with Neutrogena's Sheer foundation that comes in a tube. Even if it's a little dark it's sheer enough that it doesn't look bad it just gives me a little color.
I'm too brown to help out in this department but I love your pink scarf :)
Write it in lipstick
