thanks y'allMy skin gets ashy color when i apply any compact powder or foundation?
The reason you get that ashy color is because the foundation is too light. I would suggest going with a mineral makeup. Try Bare Essentials its natural, gives you a flawless look and it does not irritate your skin. Sephora or Macy's also has experts there to help you find the right shade for you if you want a powder or liquid foundation.My skin gets ashy color when i apply any compact powder or foundation?
forget about the farmers tan and get whatever matches your neck and natural skintone on your face with out any makeupp.


go to a MAC counter or other makeup counter and ask them to color match you.
