I have medium golden beige skin, which if the colors would you recommend contouring with? To be more specific I'm a NW25 at MAC.

My skin tone is similar to yours. I recommend the two darkest in the palette for shadows ( depending on whether you want, a natural makeup or more dramatical makeup) and for lighting, use any others except white color

My daughter is a makeup artist and se says for contouring you will need to use the darker shade in the palette for definition and blend it out.

Good Afternoon,Unfortunately, it is very difficult to foundation match someone without seeing them - there could be absolutely no guarantee that the color would match your skin tones. Typically a Dermalogica Treatment Foundation 4 would be too dark for a 'medium' color foundation. They also differentiate gold skin tones from neutral skin tones (2 vs 2G). Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thank you.

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.

Buy natural skin tone, not white (for lighter skin). Natural skin tone much better and I am very fair.

Definitely use the medium. You can reapply to add depth of color. I think dark will be too much for fair skin.

If you have fair to light skin this is understandable, as this is a darker bronzer than you'd expect. I would say this is more for contouring than an all over bronze look, unless you have medium or darker skin tone (NC40+ for reference), perfect for when you have a tan in summer time.

It'll probably be just about perfect for NC 37 Skin. I am a NC 40 Skin and have the Missha 31 and it's slightly darker.

You could probably use it but it wouldn't be as defined of a contour as it would be on lighter skin tones. What you could do though is mix it with a little bit of an espresso colored eye shadow and it would blend perfectly. That's what I do if I'm looking for a stronger contour. I hope this helps!

No this is perfect for you I also use Mac NC 40 the powder and I use it last to create a smooth finish. This topaz gives off a goldish hue and my skin complexion is Nutella. Even if you are a caramel complexion this will work for you . However if you are lighter than a caramel complexion try using the banana topaz. I think that will give off a yellowish hue tho so I'm unsure how that will look in picture taking

I would say this would fit a light to medium skin tone best. If you are very fair or very dark, it would probably not be suitable. It's also a bit on the yellow side, so if you are very pink or want to correct overly yellow tones in your skin, it may also not be suitable.I am a MAC NW 15 and it's too dark for me.

Medium is like a buff beige color. I have this and have fair skin and usually like my foundation a little darker but I actually had to order a matte light bottle seperate to mix into the medium color to make it a little lighter. Which made it the perfect mix.

I'd say yes only because otherwise you'll get a triple tone Highlight. If you're ok with that then go for it. I had medium brown but went to black base and blue highlights (via bleaching the highlighted portion). I also had to retouch the blonde portion every two weeks.

Hi, I looked at the colors and read the reviews on janeiredale.com, then came back to amazon to purchase. I'm quite fair and I bought the BB#3--the numbers are kind of confusing. There is no BB #2--it goes from #1 to #3 and #1 is very, very light. For reference, I'm a "NW20" in Mac Cosmetics foundations. If you go to www.beautipedia.com, click on Brand Reviews and find the Jane Iredale reviews, there's a nice breakdown of this product and the colors. She describes BB 1 as good for fair skin, BB 3 for light to medium. Hope this helps!

I think the colors in the palette would be too light. I'm Italian and tan easily. With that said, the darker powder color blends into my skin tone and it doesn't make for good contouring. You would be better off using Maybelines "Fit Me" line. Buy the darkest shade to contour and the lightest shade to high light. That's what I do for summer. Hope that helps!

I think it would be a great bronzer for your skin. It is a darker bronzer so It should contour nicely. I am a light/medium and I use it sparingly to contour. It blends nicely.

I think it's probably a little too light for that skin tone. I typically wear fair to medium (more fair than medium) beige foundation and this matched my coloring.

I think that medium one might be just right for you. A pretty good way to find out is to go onto youtube and type in Sleek Contour Kit Medium and find someone with coloring similar to yours.
