If you're blessed with a milky white Celtic complextion, then you know the trials and tribulations of trying to find a foundation makeup for pale skin. Since people with especially fair skin are in the minority, Cosmetics companies simply don't have an adequate selection of shades of foundation makeup for pale skin.
This means products tend to be too white, or else dark enough to leave a noticable 'tide line' where the cosmetic ends and your natural flesh begins. While this can be frustrating, don't despair. There are some good brands of foundation makeup for pale skin out there, they just take a little more work to find.
Good foundation makeup for pale skin tends to be a bit more expensive than some of the more common brands and shades, but if you've already spent loads of money on products in shades that are completely wrong for you, you may as well spend a little more on a good product and get it right the first time.
If you're looking for a product on the cheap, try products by Revlon Creations, M&S Perfect Complextions and Superdrug Kolor. In the middle price range, you can usually count on products from brands like Dior, Prescriptives, Estee Lauder, Clinique and ShuUemura.
If you want to bite the bullet and splurge on a really top notch product that you can be sure will deliver, some great brands are Chantecaille and Prescriptions Custom. Be warned, these products tend to come with a ?40 price tag, but if you want a great product that matches your flesh tone and blends well, they're worth it.
