I cannot find a foundation that does not make me look 'cakey', too light, too dark or orangey and blends very well with a matte finish. I have had my skin tone found with the Boots matchmaking service but its not my colour please help I have dark under eye circles, large pores and uneven tone. X.

I have the same issue. If it's too dark then you look muddy, if it's too light then it's ashy. Too me it looks like you have a yellow undertone so I would suggest kat von d lock it tattoo foundation. And it's a matte finish

Urban Decay is also good for yellow under tones.

Sleek Revive Foundation is great. Really good coverage and if you go on the Sleek website, you can get a pack of testers around your shade and then you'll definitely find the perfect shade. I'm in the shade Praline. It's normally too dark but I've just come back from Mallorca so it's perfect now :) It's?2.99 for a pack of testers so it's worth a try :)

If you're looking for inexpensive I recommend L'Or?al. They have shades for cool, neutral, and warm tones.

Yeah I've tried mixing them but don't get good coverage and looks to grey/ashy like Alyssa said. But will try getting some testers x

Try Iman! She has AMAZING colors that really match women of color. And by color I mean women who aren't really euro descent. The lightest shades aren't very light from what I've seen. I've had problems finding drugstore foundation for my skin as I have a lot of yellow but the other brands sort of only use yellow on lighter shades then orange on darker shades. I'm in the light medium color and I used clay 3 or 4
