How to pick a foundation and concealer color at a drugstore/walmart/target?

So, I have a tendency to become hesitant in buying foundations/concealers/powders at like a drugstore or walmart because its hard to get the right shade for my skin color. And MAC is a bit pricey so i want to try an alternative. but since there isn't a beauty expert on hand at a drugstore to help pick a color. how can i find my skin tone?

Choosing foundations at the drugstore can be really difficult. I suggest bringing a compact mirror with you so that you can check out your skin tone when looking at shades. Another thing that might help if you're unsure is to buy two shades like light and light-medium and you can always mix them together to match your skin tone exactly.





You could also try something like Revlon Custom Creations which allows you to mix amounts of two shades by turning a dial.





Another choice is Almay Smart Shade makeup which transforms to a shade to match your skin. I have tried this personally and can say that it truly does work.





Depending on the coverage you want you could also try a tinted moisturizer in which case the color doesn't have to be as perfect because it blends well and has very light coverage.

usually there is a chart that you place your hand under to find witch one matches your skin tone the best.
