So I want to start wearing foundation on my face but I don't know how to choose the right shade. Do you have any techniques that helped you choose the right shade? Or should I try BB cream first? I'm totally new to this whole "makeup thing" and I'm clueless to everything so I would gladly appreciate any suggestions :)

When choosing a color always compare it to the shade on your arm/hand you want the shade to match and look like the rest of your body. Start off with a light coverage, it's a more natural look. Experiment with different foundations, try going to Mac and sephora, and get samples!😊💋💋

Thank you all so much! I would try Sephora as I've heard a lot about it but I don't think we have that here is Australia. Also thank you Jacqueline for that 'little' lesson about undertones and whatnot ;) hahahaha. But I honestly did not know any of that so thank you. Judging by that though, I think I'm in the neutral section but I'll double check with staff when I go to buy foundation :) Again, thank you all for your help! Xo.

Teneca, The Body Shop matched me up nicely and did my whole face too, Their foundation is really nice but is around $35 dollars but its worth it :) xx

Some people at makeup shops will help you choose the right colour, for example at the mac store they'll help you with colours and types:)
