I'm afraid when I order that the darkest color is also to pale for me. But it's perferct match, shade nm 23 for me. It is very easy to use, with one tap I can cover half of my face or more, so the cushion format it's very money saving. For me it is a little bit to shiny on my face, but it can fix it with some face powder. It isnt a very big problem for me. The package is very nice and elegant. It isnt too big so you can easily take it away in your bag. It isnt leak or open so easily so you dont have to afraid that pour it into your bag.
