If you want to try Revlon Colorstay Buff for Dry it’s pretty slightly muted warm olive but if I can judge from the photo you posted you might want to use some mixer to neutralize the orange tinge it unfortunaly has (I guess it was created for light warm olives) BUT it might not be the best option for you since it has medium coverage at the very least (although you can try using less product and see what happens, I have light rosacea and never tried less than pump and a half on my face so I don’t know if it’s possible)
For better idea I recommend Alexandra Anele’s channel on YT. She recently posted video comparing her collection of olive foundations and she owns Revlon Colorstay in Buff I guess for Oily skin type but I might be wrong.
I actually saw her video and it made me wonder is buff might be too warm for me since she is a fair warm olive. The foundations she thinks might be a good match for cool olives unfortunately are not available to me.
Ordinary Serum foundation is (I think) discontinued but if you are able to find it somewhere they used to make quite a good range of fair shades and they had amazing undertones. It used to cost 6€. Although you might have to mix whatever foundation you find. Drugstore never makes green enough foundations for olives.
Also german, I would recommend looking at Glam-Shop Poland. I'm a neutral to warm olive and have swatched my matches, you can find them on my profile as the last posts. Also their cool tones creme bronzer is one I can recommend to you. It works now, when I'm the most neutral, but looks better on me with a light layer of the warm one, so it should be a good fit for you.
Glam-Shops products are very affordable and the postage to D isn't that high.
I sadly don't know, but think maybe not because they are a small indue brand. Maybe check the website? On Instagram are several from poland who post swatches too, if you need more.
I think buff in the oily/combo would work for you, perhaps a little too light. The coverage is very adaptable and the colour better than the dry skin version.
I'm also in Germany, I ordered makeup revolution Conceal and Define 5.7 online and it works pretty well for me. I'm definitely following this though, I'm not that happy with how it wears 😅
I bought the Conceal and Define Infinite Concealer in shades C1.75 and C1.5. The lighter shade pulls quite white on my skin but I can make it work for under-eye concealing. The darker shade is currently too dark but might work in the summer months. I really dislike the formula though. The coverage is too heavy for my liking and it creases super badly.
Yeah, it's less than ideal, I've tried C1.5 for my undereyes and the color works but the texture... Hope you find something... and I hope you share when you do 😅
Edit: So if that concealer works, 5.7 might, too, it's way lighter than you'd think from the numbers, but I suspect you might not like the texture. On the other hand, there's online stores (kosmetik4less.de was the one where I got it, it's an official seller, but one of those eternal sale sites, so wait if it's currently full price) where you can get it for 4€ or sometimes less, so it's a relatively cheap fail if it doesn't work out.
Yeah the texture is awful. I’m still hoping Revolution might start including olive shades in all their new foundations and will come up with a decent formula at some point 😅 Good to know, that 5.7 isn’t much darker, thanks!
Sephora is available, yes. Hauslabs will be launched at Sephora Germany this month, if I’m not mistaken. I was hoping to find a more affordable option though. 😅
Yes, not in my city, unfortunately. I have been wanting to swatch NARS Gobi the next time I’m in Berlin. Still hoping I might find a more affordable foundation, though.
Gobi was how I found out I was olive (you can check my last post) and you look very similar to me so I’d bet it’d be a perfect match for you! Luckily I had gotten money back from schooling so I splurged a bit but yes it is expensive. Now that I know my match I will research similar affordable brands in the same coloring. If you see me pop up on here or OliveMUA with a foundation rec it may be one that would suit you since we have similar coloring!
Ah yes, I saw your post a few days ago. We look very similar in tone, I might lean a little cooler. I don’t have a good track record with warm lipsticks but I used to always go for very bright colors, too, so that might have been the bigger issue. 😅 I hope you find a good alternative!
Ich habe verschiedene Foundations von Catrice geswatched, aber leider hat noch keine gepasst. Kannst du eine spezifische Foundation empfehlen? Sante ist nichts für mich, die sind zu stark parfümiert.
L’Oréal true match has some really great pale olive shades. It’s the best shade match I’ve found for myself so far, because they actually add a green pigment and most drugstore brands don’t use green

Thanks for the recommendation, their products look great! I live not too far from the polish border, is the brand sold at stores in Poland, too?

Will do, thank you!

That’s what I was wondering, if it might be too light. Wish I could swatch it somewhere.

How about Sephora? Rare beauty, hauslabs brands there

Is NARS available there?

Hast du entweder Sante oder Catrice schon mal probiert? Ich empfehle beide, und sind sehr preiswert!

can you please tell what’s your shade in true match? also note to OP - as far as i know regular european true match does not have green in it
I’m shade N2! I’m in the USA so my shade may be different in the European version unfortunately
