The lightest clinique foundation is still too dark for my skin. Where can I blend it with to make it lighter?.xx

Buy a cheap foundation in a lighter shade and mix them together, or mix it with a small amount of moisturizer (although this will reduce the coverage.)

Manic Panic's Dream Tone is White. That will lighten anything! Revlon's Photo Ready has some very pale shades as well.

NP, Annmarie :) Laura, if you just opened it within the last week, most stores will take it back. I have done so...simply saying that I was disappointed with the product.

If you don't want to buy another foundation or bb cream you can use this trick. Add your moisturizer to your foundation. Let say you do one pup of foundation then you can use 1 pup of cream and then add from there to get your color. I hope this helps!

Will it work if I mix it with BB cream? (the green one, helps against redness)
