I use honey colours or yellow based colours. I use the foundation to make it smooth and the powder to seal. Should i use different colors for foundation and powder to avoid this white finish? Any ideas.How do i avoid my face from looking white after i apply foundation and then a light powder?
use a darker shade of powder. mineused to do that too.How do i avoid my face from looking white after i apply foundation and then a light powder?
you just don't apply foundation.
If u refuse to do so i'd recommend putting a dark, skin colored blush over it.
You need to change your shade of foundation and powder. Try to match your skin along your jaw line, when you are looking for the best color to match your skin tone.
Mineral foundations are great because each shade matches about 4 different skin tones.
I like to add color back into my face with a bronzer. I have very pale skin...but I also have freckles. When I use powder and foundation, it covers my freckles...makes me look like a ghost ( even though it does match my skintone ) so I use bronzer to give myself a healthy glow.
no just add blush for a healthy glow or bronzer!
Yes. Foundation should blend easily into your skin. You can get any department store (Clinique, Origins, Aveda, etc) to match your skin tone for free. If you're noticing a white finish, do not get a colored powder.. put on a translucent powder (Origins has a good one). If you don't have those options available, take a powder brush and lightly dip it into a really light pinkish/peachish blush and put that ALL over (don't over do it, just subtlely), that should help with the White finish.. g'luck! =)
If you want to really look good try bare minerals from bare escentuals. Their make-up is awesome. I started using it a few years ago and would never go back to the ';old'; way of using make-up. They have stores all over the country but are few and far between. For instance there are only 2 of them in Ohio. You can buy some of their stuff on line too.

It definitely sounds like your foundation and powder are too pale for your skin. They should be a perfect match. Test the foundation IN NATURAL LIGHT before you commit to buying it! Department stores are really good for this- they will let you see a couple of shades on your skin and then you can borrow a mirror to go outside and see how each shade really looks.
YOU JUST RELE HAVE TO RUB IT IN
Invest in a good quality bronzer or highlighter. Most bronzers can be used by any color person, they just add a touch of sun-kissed glow. Another thing is consider wearing some blush. Not too much, just enough to draw attention to your natural blushing cheeks. When applying bronzer, lightly apply it to your cheeks, tip of your chin and nose and just a touch on your forehead. When applying blush, apply it to the apple of your cheek. Less is more!!
apply a little blush or bronzers
Yes, you may be using too light of a color, the wrong undertone or both or possibly the sunscreen ingredient used is causing the ';pasty'; look (titanium dioxide).
Having a professional color test your skin would help, but if you look at your wrist, sometimes you can see either a golden undertone (the color you are using) or a pinkish undertone (opt for cool foundation colors) or if neither you may need neutral.
use an orange-ish blush and apply it to your cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead
make sure you make it blend well and you will look like a million bucks
