Do you guys do it? neutrogena is great on my skin but hate that the shades tend to be kinda pinkish. I just bought Revlon colorstay but I'm not too happy with this shade either. Would it be a disaster if I mixed these different brands?

You can always try it! I mix mine on some days! Because somedays I notice that my one foundation oxidizes too much therefore making my face dark so ill sometimes mix it with a hint of a lighter one!

I mix concealers! Mixing foundations is perfectly ok. Just make sure you're looking at it in natural light to make sure it's actually blending with your skin colour properly. :)

Yeah I have to mix mine to get the right shade I use nc30 and nc35 in Mac and I started using revelon colorstay so I mix natural tan and golden beige to get my color works for me.

And no mixing brands is fine but you do want to look at what kind of products your mixing like for example you wouldn't want to mix a water based foundation with an oil based foundation because then it will just separate on your face n look a hot mess just FYI

@Mayra how do you know whether products are water based or not? I usually go with w/e is meant for oily skin hoping it won't be oil based. Is that ok? Might sound like a dumb question but I'm 22 and barely started putting more effort into my makeup :)

Try going to sephora or MAC, they will match you and suggest alternative brands if the products are not in your budget. Good luck.
