I suggest you get a sample, experiment and see what works best for you. I actually really like this foundation, I like it much more than the Sheer Glow and I like it enough to possibly title it HG! I can understand why it's loved but at the same time I know why people hate it too. AHA mask/scrub and MOISTURISE, do not be shy with the moisturiser! The hydrating mask worked as a primer for me, it smoothened out my skin and hydrated it enough to keep it looking good. I need some alternative dupes to Macs foundation NW45 from the following brands Nars All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation Fenty Beauty Maybeline NYX E.L.F Makeup Revolution Colourpop Juvias place Please help. If you have oily skin, use a mattifying primer and set with powder. It's liquidy, semi matte powdery texture and consistency reminds me of Urban Decay Naked Skin Foundation (which I own and have reviewed) but ADLW is a little more difficult to use than Urban Decay Naked Skin, metaphorically I'd say ADLW is Urban Decay Naked Skin's older, much meaner and difficult sister :D ! In other words Naked Skin is a lot more forgiving to use and ADLW isn't. This is a great foundation if you know how to work with it. PLEASE, if you are "simpson yellow" like me, I urge you to try this! I do sometimes catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror and think: woah I look like the sun! But I like that I've found a shade that levels up to my yellowness, plus I can just use a lighter concealer to highlight and tone it down a little on the centre of my face if it starts to bother me. The shade is what I adore about this foundation, there are very few foundations in my hold that I can say that about, the other being bareMinerals Golden Medium. I feel like it brightens up any sallowness in my skin. This is perfectly yellow for me, okay I should admit that it's a touch too yellow and can look a teeny tiny bit jaundicey (teeny tiny bit), but this is really flattering and works really well for my complexion as it's a shade that's in between the lightest and darkest areas of my face. I did read somewhere that ADLW was darker than Sheer Glow and it's what I was hoping for. PERFECT! Like HOLY BAUBLES is this shade yellow or what!?! Okay I need to calm down. I wear Stromboli in Sheer Glow which has been the most perfect undertone for me, but can sometimes lack the depth that my golden tan skin has if it's not built up enough. I fall under the medium tanned category of skin tones, light brown with very yellow olive undertones, NC35 - NC42. The shade Stromboli is Medium 3, described as medium with olive undertones.
