Hey there, I have dry, fair skin with a cool undertone and can't seem to find the perfect match! Most turn out too orange or yellow for me. List any drugstore or higher end brands that work for you! Btw, I'm the lightest foundation color if that helps!

Your skin tone sounds exactly like mine, I like to use Mac studio fix (usually in the summer otherwise it can dry me out) and Mac Pro long wear, but its a bit darker than the studio fix, not sure why but I assume the formula

Try the nc shades, they are the cool Mac shades.

Thank you ladies! Yeah most foundations will last on my skin, they just don't seem to match well. Should I mix two shades?

I second the Mary Kay timewise with a matte finish. It's the best foundation I've ever used. Great coverage (I don't need concealer) and great with my skin tone!

Same problem here! I am really satisfied with Artistry's Hydrating Foundation - Chablis (the lightest tone, cool). it's very pale...like me. In the summer I just mix it with a warmer and darker tone to avoid the "summer ghost" look. I've tried once also a Max Factor's foundation...I don't remember the name but its main feature was to match skin colour + very sheer coverage. The lightest shade worked perfectly for me, for a very reasonable price :)
