I am a cool-toned ppp/lll, and I have finally found a color that matches my skin!!! I have blue/red undertones, and Prescriptives gets the fact that yellow is not for everyone.

I'm fifteen and have normal skin, though the t-zone could stand to be a little more matte and the pores de-emphsized. I was matched to the B/R color group and the shade Camelia, the lightest shade...
