THE FOUNDATION DIRECTORY: SAM’S SHADES

Caveat: I am well aware that this will be helpful to only a small percentage of your, but I often get asked what shade I am wearing in specific products when i am nowhere near my dressing table, so thought this would be a good place to pop it all, for people to refer to if they need it. I also have plans to expand this, and to create a directory of the shades most loved by our Insta friends with different skin tones.

It may be useful to refer back to or for you to attempt to work out your own shade in a specific product, using me as a starting point and working up or down. I also use the website Findation a lot, it makes finding my specific shade easy.

Like I said, it’s a niche post, but if anything it’s a place holder for me to be able to refer people to, when they ask that question.
