Anyone that knows me, knows that I pimp Korres foundations and skincare products with a vengeance. One of the reasons is because as a brown girl with golden rather than yellow undertones and crazy sensitive skin, it’s harder than you would think to find foundations that match well. Most companies make foundations and powders with red/orange/pink undertones and very few have a wide range of yellow undertone foundations with the exception of MAC, but I’ve gone from an NC42 to NW45 and various combinations in one season, and I can feel it on my face which I dislike intensely. I also hate full coverage, and prefer a dewy finish, so when I walked into Sephora looking for something new that fulfilled all my needs and the makeup artist led me to the Korres counter, I walked out a believer. And a pimp. Because Korres is a Greek brand, the undertones are ONLY gold and yellow, and they tend to be a bit on the darker shade side because well, Greeks tend to be more olive toned, however the foundations are pretty workable because of the very sheer coverage and they blend in extremely well (pictures below after the jump). So if you’re not a gold or yellow undertone, with this brand you’re probably out of luck.
