Beauty ASK THE EXPERTS

Lancôme answers your beauty question

Q: I really struggle to find the right foundation colour for my skin tone. Any suggestions? Mary-Ann – Gauteng, South Africa

A: Lancôme recommends, when purchasing a foundation, to test at least 3 colours closest to your skin tone along your jaw line. The shade that “disappears” and blends well with your skin tone on your face and your neck, is the perfect shade for you. If the colour on your face is lighter or darker than the colour on your neck, it will not look natural. NEW Teint Idole Ultra 24Hr Foundation (launching 26 March) in 15 perfect-fit shades gives you long-wear perfection and divine comfort. Visit the Lancôme counter from 26 March 2012 to receive your complimentary trial size of your perfect shade.
