Use a light bronzer. And apply it liberally around the areas you would naturally contour.

I agree with Ciaran. Also dust a little bronzer on your neck to hide foundation lines.

No need to buy a new foundation, just bronze up a bit,

I agree to use bronzer, but I would use a matte bronzer instead of a shimmery one for adding to your whole face.

I'd mix abit of moisturiser in before you put it on but that will give less coverage =]

Mix in a darker foundation to match your shade

Yeah I'd go with meg on this you can mix foundations on your hand to get your perfect shade, or you can take it back! If you tell them you had an allergic reaction to something in it they will take it back- but if its a beauty store like ulta just tell them you did a different color. Also what I do (because I personally like to start out with a lighter base) is set my foundation with a powder that does match my skin exactly and that will make it perfect! I wouldn't suggest using a bronzer because using most bronzers all over are too pigmented and will look uneven and the tone of the majority of them is mainly orange, not tan. But if that's what you want to do- then the most natural look would be To go buy a darker powder (in whatever color you want to be your bronzer) and use that as your matte bronzer it will look a lot more normal, and won't have any sparkles or orange tones!

I use a beauty blender to blend foundations when my color is lighter than one but darker than the other.
