Yes! Alex is THE ONLY creator who cares about us green girls! 🥰 Incidentally, I'm Italian. What's everybody else? I'm gonna go out on a limb here but I'm thinking Ms. Alex may be Italian, too. She "talks" with her hands, which is a huge Italian thing. 😁 She also has Italian features. Of course I could be completely wrong. There are several ethnicities that have the olive green undertone. 🤷🏻♀️

Yep great idea! Very difficult to find the perfect bronzer let alone contour when you have an olive undertone. I noticed on my complexion orangey bronzers are horrible, slightly neutral golden is duable but for summertime a redish brown bronzer can look amazing but it's a tricky shade though if you overdo it. Keeping a light hand when applying it is key. But overal I prefer neutral brown nothing to cool or extremely warm (a hint of warmth is great as long as it's not orange based). Not sure about contour shades, they all look aweful on my complexion, to cool/muddy. Sometimes a neutral boring brownish blush can work as a natural looking contour depending on your skintone I think.

I almost didn't watch this because I don't have olive skin and figured it wouldn't be applicable to me, but I watched it anyway and I"m SO glad I did because I actually learned a ton. Just seeing how different companies define "neutral", let alone "olive" was truly enlightening. And then watching how those swatched dried down vs initial application suddenly made my makeup world make more sense.

@@emma_luce_1123 It probably does because it has a white base. For me that one from ELF is to white based. I prefer the LA Girl green corrector specifically for medium/dark skintones because it's more vibrant/true olive because of the darker base. I'm not dark skinned at all but it works perfectly for me. Or in case I have them: the other LA Girl mixing pigments in blue and yellow together work as well but strange enough it does thicken foundations not sure why. I usually use water based (very thin and runny) foundations so it's not that much of a problem but if you use a foundation that's thicker/creamier or oil based it might not work with these pigments

My swatch request is your 3 best olive concealers (kosas, nyx, luna) with your best foundation matches (especially about face)! People don't talk about how concealer on the face should match the foundation color otherwise the concealed area can become more noticeable instead of less- at least this is one of my issues with concealer as a fair olive person. So as i keep working to find my best matches, I swatch my concealers next to my foundations to see which work together and which don't. Is always eye opening! Btw, i am not any darker than you but I use the nyx bare with me light on my undereyes and it's perfect as concealer (amazing formula too), but i don't do much brightening.

As you were talking about the confusion of tan being before medium on the color chart I had a makeup epiphany. The whole “tan” color category is implicit of deeper shades on that side of the spectrum only existing for when those with lighter skin tones “tan”. It’s a pretty colorist naming system when you think about it. I understood your confusion because what you said made so much sense to me, yeah tan after light then the naturally medium skin tones.

With the elf concealers I also have found that they’re super orange or pink and it totally depends on matte vs hydrating. I find the mattes skew more olive and the matte elf concealer in light beige is pretty olive!! (Testing it now and it oxidises to be orangey, false alarm) While it’s probably a little orange for some really olive people my go to o concealer that I basically wear as foundation (so it’s not super light or brightening) is the dior backstage foundation in 2n or 1n if you want lighter

You’re literally the best with dark circle videos that I’ve watched over the years! Please I have a question. My problem is not with concealers or correctors but with POWDERS. I have very bad dark circles, same tone as yours but darker, when I put on my corrector and concealer, my eyes look pretty perfect (seamless, well-covered, natural), but as soon as I set it with powder, the under eyes turn gray and dark circles show through 😢 I don’t know if it’s the shade of the powder (translucent or pigment?) or the kind of the powder (loose or pressed?). Which one should I use that will give more coverage but still natural looking (not cakey or too dry for under eyes)? Fyi, my current routine is: Bobbi Brown Corrector in Peach, Tarte Shape Tape Concealer in Light Neutral, set with Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Powder. I’ve been looking everywhere but very few if not none video talking about the right powder for under eyes dark circles or how choosing the correct powder could affect your under eyes makeup - like how I’m experiencing. Thank you Alex and anyone that could help me. I really appreciate it 🫶🏻

I wish I could find someone on youtube with light medium olive undertones. I would score.

Your french is always so seductive! I’m not olive or fair but I’m here anyway rating every shade 😂

If you mix the two Bare With Me shades, you would likely get the perfect color for you 💜

I like that you did the swatches in natural light. Artificial light doesn't reflect the colour so well.
