I have a looot of issues finding foundation, concealer, and powder that's pale enough for my skin.
I've tried brands like Hard Candy, Maybelline, Revlon, and NARS and allll of them were too dark!
My skin tone matches Mac NC10, and the only other brand I've found that matches my skin is NYX, but I want a little heavier coverage than that.
Medium to full coverage is ideal, and preferably not to expensive, I'm just a high schooler, haha.

I'm about the same shade as you look and I use the new cover girl line in the lightest colour, but it's still a little too dark.

Ahh, I might have to check out Illamasqua anyways! Thanks, Jacqlyn.
Elizabeth, I'll take a look, but eeevery Cover Girl product I've tried has been a total flop.

@Jacqlyn: That's a reaaally good idea! And I probably wouldn't need to use much of either so it might even be worth the money.
@Megan: Seriously!? I'm pretty sure I used that stuff way back when I was a freshman and forgot all about it, I'll definitely look at that again.

I was going to suggest what Jacqlyn said, lol :p
you could mix a white skin base with whatever foundation you have to make it lighter! you can also always get skin ID'd at a local Sephora to find your exact shade in every foundation they carry.. & it's free (:

@Megan: Way ahead of you! I looked it up already and it looks super light!
@Kyra: Ahh, I would get skin ID'd except the nearest Sephora is a little under 2 hours away, so not really an option lol

I think Hard Candy's Glamoflauge in "ultra-light" is really good for pale skin. I have really pale skin and I use the ultra light for contouring because its so light on me (I usually just wear "light"). L'Oreal's lightest shade is not light enough for me... And do you have an Ulta nearby since you don't have a Sephora?

I like Makeup Forever has really good light shade foundations, I normally wear the lightest in any foundation brands but I wear a couple of shades darker than the lightest color.
