Trying to decide which shade to buy...I usually wear a medium tone in bare minerals makeup. Would that be the medium beige? How dark is the nude?

I am fair skinned and purchase this in Ivory. Unfortunately, this wonderful makeup has been discontinued. I've been using it for 10 years and am very disappointed. It's great for sensitive skin and doesn't cause acne.

I am fair skinned and so I am wearing the "natural Beige" and its just a 'tad' (tiney) bit darker than my skin. So, my guess would be that if you are a darker skin than my light skin, I would say that I'd try the medium beige. I don't know anything about the nude other than what the "nude" implies (that you cannot see any color). I hope this helps.

I am very fair and I buy the ivory shade. This is the same color I would buy in any other base make-up. I would think medium beige would be too dark if you usually wear a medium tone. The coverage is very good and lasts all day.

Medium is very light. I wasn't able to use it. Also, it looks very much like heavy makeup. Tan would probably be your better option.

I believe there are peach shades, cream/ivory, and several others that when blended will make beautiful skin tones. May I suggest getting on the Prisma color website and checking the 36 ct tin for colors? That way your'e sure to get what you your'e looking for. Good luck!

I've always used Tan #2 so I don't know about Medium Beige. It's worth trying. They are all so expensive now that I don't knowwhat I need to change to.

I would say either the blonde or taupe at the darkest. It should give you the definition that you want without being too dark against your complexion. The good thing about this product is you can build it up to the intensity you want. I hope that helps.

fair to medium skin tone. Probably should go lighter. Not sure what that color is. Pam

I went on jane Iredale site, bought mineral foundation, love it, it is lite and creamy, not heavy, use color bb3 which is light, but there is a BB1 you may wish to consider! The site shows sample of colosr

I like matte, but if were under 30 or 35 I'd try shimmer. Probably get fair - medium is good for my med:-dark complexion. And the brush actually has a little "sleeve" cover that slides over it. It's a great product!

Hi Nikita, I have deep foundation, I am not sure if this will be a true match for your skin tone. I also can add a covergirl whipped creme foundation base 365 if this will help. I think this will be a good match but you can double check on Covergirls website to see the color and see if it would work for you. I hope this answers your question. Thanks, Joanne

Traslucent is more for shiny skin helps to keep it dry and also they have three tones natural is for white skin, warm beige is for dark ir médium skin and Traslucent i havent seen that color but talking about make up is the whitest powder ... You can use it at the end of make up, it's the final touch ... I only useWarm beige because I'm medium skin tone and it's perfect for me I don't need the translucent powder

I am rather fair and I wear the light/medium. I would suspect that you need a deeper shade but I cannot say which shade you really need. Perhaps a tripto a drug store that carries this product would be advisable to check for proper shade for your complexion....

I got the darkest, I believe, which is Tan. I love it! Unless you're swarthy complected, this would be fine. It covers so perfectly and evens out the skin tone without being heavy and obvious.

That's the shade I used to wear. I ordered "Nouveau Beige" and it's a pretty near match, but be aware that the container is smaller by about a third. But here's the good news - for a very good substitute now that Max Factor very stupidly discontinued their FABULOUS Pan Stik foundation, try Kryolan TV Paint Stick foundation - this is a very, very good product and much cheaper than Max Factor because you get more and it lasts forever. I sent a color sample of Max Factor Medium Beige 129 to a vendor (either Stage Tones or Camera-Ready - I forget which one) and they color-matched it for me. The closest match was their Kryolan color OB1. This makeup is used for high definition TV but you can wear it everyday. It's not QUITE as good as Max Factor, but it's very, VERY good. I LOVE it, and will continue with it even if Max Factor resurrects Pan Stik. Check it out! You can find it on Amazon, or just google it. Another good substitute is made by theatrical cosmetics compay, Mehron, but I prefer Kryolan - FABULOUS !!! Check it out! Good luck!

I can't imagine either shade producing an orange effect. It's only tinted so the color is barely visible. I use the natural and I have an olive skin tone, it blends perfectly, and feels great on my skin.

If you use l'Oreal N3 then Missha #27 should be OK. It's not too dark, but if you prefer lighter tone then I guess #23 is right for you.

Probably medium. Light/medium is on the lighter side of medium, and medium deep would be for more tanned skin.
