Hey guys!
Today I have bought a too light make up and it was (in my opinion) quite expensive..
Do you guys have any idea how I can make it a little bit darker, so it could match w/ my skin?
Please write down your ideas! :(

Well, if it was really expensive, maybe you could return/exchange it? I'd also suggest mixing it with a foundation that you have that's too dark (if you have one).

Well its a drugstore foundation 😂 I don't think that they would change it after I've used it..
But thank you

Zeren like hannah said most of the drugstores do exchange them, it wouldn't hurt asking.

Drugstores usually do exchange it.
If not then add a bit of bronzer to it.

Yes drugstores will exchange I once bought a mascara and the girl told me if I don't like it I can return it(:

You can always blend it with some bronzer (scrape some down onto the back of your hand if you don't have a liquid bronzer) and blend together a small amount before applying it to your face :)

Use a light hand of bronzer on your forehead and and under your cheekbones to warm up the chreks.

Just make sure that the bronzer is completely matte otherwise you end up with glitter on your face;-)

Try bronzing up a bit or mixing with a darker one.

I returned a BB cream because it was too dark. They allowed me to. This was at Walmart.

You could mix it with a foundation that is too dark for you, that should even it out. Or set the foundation with a powder that is your skin tone or a shade darker.

Use a matte bronzer maybe that will help👍
