Hi I'm currently using Bare Minerals 05 fairly medium in matte as I have mature oily skin but I'm unable to buy this anywhere. What's the nearest shade to this I could use instead? I don't want a shade that will either look too dark or make me look pale.

Hi there Would it be okay to mix two different shades together in the lid and then apply to the face to get a better colour match?

Asked by: Anonymous

Yes you can do this but may get different shades each time. I would mix quite a lot until I got the correct shade and put it in another pot and use from there.
