Lightening my foundaton with baby powder? anyone done it?

I've got a lovely expensive Dior foundation in the lightest shade but it is a tad too dark, can i use baby powder over it to make my face appear lighter and how would i do it?





I tried using moisturiser to make my foundation lighter but i didnt know how to do it properly and i ended up with hardly any foundation on my faceLightening my foundaton with baby powder? anyone done it?
Don't put the powder over the top, you'll end up looking like it is caked on.





Put some foundation into your palm and add some powder into that, and then apply it to your face.





You might have to experiment with how much to use. If you use too much it will become mushy.Lightening my foundaton with baby powder? anyone done it?
How about buying a lighter cheaper foundation and mixing the two, you could even buy another Dior one, then mix the two and you will have double the amount with out wasting any.
just put a little amount of the foundation then cover it up by the face powder....
Go to Dior, ask them for a couple of samples of your foundation in a lighter shade, They should give you one. %26amp; mix it with your foundation.
Is it powder or liquid foundation? If it's powder, you can apply a lighter loose powder over the top. If it's liquid, use a wedge shaped cosmetic sponge and put some mosturizer on it, then put some of your foundation on the sponge. This will lighten the color. You might still want to apply a loose powder over top.

perhaps using moisturisor as a base then powder then baby powder. not too much, or it may clog.
THe powder idea doesn't work. Do what a previous person said, mix it with another liquid - either a much lighter foundation, or find a ';color corrector'; white liquid. Armani makes one, but there are also cheaper ones around.
