I thought just for the record it would help blog readers if you had a better idea of our respective skin-types and have a reference of what colours, ingredients do and don't work for us.
I'll be linking the profiles as they're posted to the "About Me" section of the blog. If you'd like to know anything that hasn't been mentioned, please feel free to ask.
Love,
Kahani

Thanks for sharing!
Damn MAC SA gave me NC30 as my colour, blehhhhh~ It went orangy/grey/patchy/blotchy on me. LOL.
And I love the same kind of blush colour like you! :D
Actually, with MAC foundies some oxidise so much that I'm matched to NC20 on them. Ish. Why can't they solve this problem?
thanks for this! You can't use shea butter and jojoba? that sucks :(
I like salicylic acid :D
MAC select foundation oxidized on me :-/
if that's the case, i stay away from MAC foundie. :P
i dun believe i can't get a good one that doesn't oxidizes!
Connie: Shea butter on my face breaks me out. It was in Biotherm's Aquasource
Plue: If you read MUA it seems like they oxidise quite a bit.
Semi permanent makeup & Garage Door Installation whose comments I have deleted. If you think I can't spot spam, you're nuts.
Le sigh. I read MUA, but hm, some swear by it, I guess they were lucky :(
Oh well, I spotted new foundie in the market, and am itching to try them! :P
oh, i used b.liv sebum gel too (off with those heads) and i must say their moisturizer is excellent 'quench me'
