Hi guys. Welcome back to my channel. So today's video is going to be my most favorite foundations
for dusky dark brown Indian skin tones. This is a much awaited video for all of you guys. I know
a lot of you have been requesting for this video on my channel. So here are my top picks and also
I wanted to mention that I'm including only those foundations which cater to dusky or deeper Indian
complexions. I also have some other foundations that I really really like but unfortunately those
are the shades which are the deepest in their collection which is my skin tone and we do have
a lot of other deeper chocolatey Indian beautiful complexions and they don't have shade options for
deeper Indian complexion so I'm not including those foundations. Only the foundations that
have a deeper shade options in their range are included in today's video and not only that all
these foundations are easily available in India so you can get your hands on these foundations
without any problem. So without wasting any more time let's begin.
The first foundation that I'm going to share is the Maybelline Fit Me foundation.
Does this even need an introduction? It is a cult favorite and for a reason. This is such a beautiful
foundation and has a lot of shades to choose from especially if you're a dusky skinned girl and you
finding a good match for yourself I would always always recommend the Maybelline Fit Me foundation
because it is really good, works on all skin types. They have a variety of shades to choose
from which suits our Indian complexions pretty pretty well and not only that the newer packaging
comes with a pump so it is a big yay. So my shade in the Fit Me range is the number 335
labeled as classic tan. This is a very very good match on my complexion probably just half of a
deeper than my complexion but I really don't mind going a bit darker for my foundation rather than
going lighter. The coverage of this foundation is about medium to full coverage. You can build it up
to a fuller looking coverage if you want that extra coverage from your foundation but this
foundation does provide a good amount of coverage with a single layer itself. This blends beautifully
with a brush or a sponge. You don't have any problem in blending this foundation at all even
if you're a beginner this is a very very easy to use product. This is my top pick for all you
dusky beauties out there. It is super affordable and really good quality. Maybelline Fit Me foundation
gives a beautiful satin matte finish to your skin so if you have a drier skin type make sure to prep
your skin well with a good moisturizer. I'm pretty sure this won't dry out your skin or anything but
if you feel this is too matte of a foundation for your liking then prep your skin very well and it
will work absolutely fine. So here is the swatch of the Maybelline Fit Me foundation in the shade
classic tan. The next foundation is the Nykaa skin shield anti-pollution foundation. This is again a
very very favorite foundation of mine. I love this foundation a lot. So my shade in this foundation
is 13 foxy chestnut. So this foundation comes in a tube packaging like this so it's very easy for
you to dispense the product but sometimes the foundation also gets on the cap right here like
this one which is a little bit annoying but that's okay but I really really do like the foundation
a lot. So this is a foundation which I would call is kind of in between a matte and a dewy finish.
It's not too matte, not too dewy. It's right in between. This has somewhat of a mattifying property
but this also has a beautiful sheen to it. It's not completely drying or anything on the skin. It
sits beautifully on the skin. Again this is a medium to full coverage buildable foundation with
a single layer this gives a beautiful medium coverage. You can actually build it up to get
that fuller looking coverage on your face. It has a little bit of a smoothing property to it. The skin
kind of looks really nice and blurry and flawless once the application of this foundation and this
also lasts really well on my oily skin so I really like this foundation as well. Here is the swatch
of the Nykaa Skin Shield Anti-Pollution Foundation in the shade Foxy Chestnut.
The next foundation is the Makeup Revolution Conceal and Define Full Coverage Foundation.
So this comes in a glass bottle like this one with a huge doe foot applicator. This is how the
applicator looks like so you can kind of dot it all over your face. My shade in the Conceal and
Define Foundation is 12.5 which matches me really really well and like the name suggests this
foundation has great coverage so even with a single layer of this foundation this does provide a lot
of coverage. This is a completely matte finish foundation so if you have an oily skin type you
would really really like this. Again this is a very very long lasting formula. It lasts pretty
well on my oily skin. This also has that flawless blurring effect on the skin once you apply this
foundation and has a lot of coverage so this is perfect for special occasions or for events when
you want to make your makeup last really long. If you have a drier skin type and looking forward
to use this foundation then you have to make sure that you prep your skin very well with a thick
and nourishing moisturizer before you apply this foundation because it is quite matte on the skin.
Whenever I'm doing a dramatic or bolder makeup look I pick up this one and another foundation
that I'm going to show you next. So these are the kind of full coverage foundations that I like
for dusky complexions. So this is how the Makeup Revolution Conceal and Define Foundation in the
shade 12.5 looks like. The next foundation that I really like on my dusky complexion is the NYX
Can't Stop Won't Stop Foundation and my shade is Mahogany. This foundation again is a full full
coverage foundation just like the Makeup Revolution foundation that I showed you and this is the
other foundation that I like to go for whenever I'm doing a bolder or dramatic makeup look and
the NYX foundation has a pump to it so it's very easy for you to dispense the product out of this
bottle. However, I cannot find the shade Mahogany on any of the Indian websites that are available
today. I think it is kind of sold out and they don't have any stocks of this particular shade
but caramel is also another option for dusky complexions. Now the shade Mahogany is slightly
deeper for my complexion as well but I really really love the finish this foundation gives. It
almost gives a porcelain doll skin effect on the skin. It just covers up all the texture on my skin
and almost looks like a back skin. It's very very smooth and flawless and super blurred out whenever
I use this foundation and not only that this provides a lot of coverage. When they say full
coverage they do mean it. It is full coverage. Even with a single layer of this foundation you can
absolutely get a full full coverage with this foundation. It is super super matte perfect for
oily skin types and it lasts forever on the skin. So if you are somebody with dusky oily skin then
you should absolutely pick the NYX Can't Stop Won't Stop foundation. You will really like this.
This is not your everyday sort of a foundation. This is a glam party wear sort of a foundation
because it does have a lot of coverage to it. When I got this foundation I really could not
stop using it. It is really that amazing of a foundation especially if you're a girl who likes
a fuller coverage you should absolutely try the NYX Can't Stop Won't Stop foundation. So here is
the swatch of the NYX Can't Stop Won't Stop foundation. As you can see it is slightly deeper
than the other foundations on my hand. The next foundation that I have is from Calabar. This is
their 24 hour weightless liquid foundation. So this comes in this really unique tube packaging.
So it has a pump on the tube itself so it's very easy for you to dispense the product out of this
tube and it has a nice cap also. So this foundation was launched kind of by the end of 2020 last year
and this is a beautiful foundation. As soon as I used this foundation I really fell in love with
this foundation. They do have a lot of shade options in this foundation range to choose from.
My shade in the Calabar foundation is FW 8.2. So this particular shade has a lot of golden
yellow undertones to it. It is a little bit yellow as soon as I apply the foundation onto my face
but it does settle onto the skin very well after a few minutes of application. So the finish of
this foundation is a beautiful satin matte finish. So even if you have a drier skin type you can
absolutely try this because it is not drying at all on the skin. This is the most lightweight
comfortable foundation that I am including in today's video. It feels super light on the skin,
doesn't really feel like you're wearing a thick layer of foundation onto your skin but
this does provide a lot of coverage as well. This is a medium to full coverage foundation
with a single layer of this foundation. It provides a medium coverage and you can also
build it up to a fuller looking coverage as well and this doesn't get cakey at all. It is
very very smooth. The layers are super super light so it never gets cakey. You can even wear this
foundation for daily wear or even if you're going to a party or event you can absolutely use this
foundation. It depends on the kind of coverage you're going for. This is also a very very long
foundation. It lasts pretty well on my oily skin. With a light layer of this foundation,
this foundation almost looks undetectable on the skin. It is that finely milled smooth foundation
which kind of mimics the texture of your skin so people cannot really make out if you're wearing
foundation with a thin layer of this foundation. So here is the swatch of the Colourbar 24 Hour
Liquid Foundation in the shade FW 8.2. I have two more foundations to talk about and both of these
are from L.A. Girl. So the first one is the L.A. Girl Pro Coverage High Definition Foundation which
is by the way a very very popular foundation from L.A. Girl. So my shade in this one is called
Bronze. This is again a very very golden foundation. It has a lot of yellow undertones to
it but after some time this does adjust with my skin color and settles down to a perfect finish.
So this foundation is the most dewyest foundation that I'm showing you in today's video which is
perfect for drier skin types. This is very very very dewy finish of a foundation but it looks
beautiful on the skin. It gives a nice glowy dewy effect on the skin so if you are somebody with
drier skin type you would absolutely love this foundation. If you have an oily skin type like me
you won't really like this foundation as much because it is very very dewy and it won't really
last on your oily complexion that well because it will get oily. But I do like to use this foundation
for some of my looks wherein I want to create that glowy glass like effect on my skin. If you're a
dry skin girl definitely pick up this foundation. You won't be disappointed. It adds that beautiful
dewy finish and this one has about medium to full coverage again. So with a single layer of this
foundation you would get medium coverage and upon building this up you will get a fuller looking
coverage. And this foundation has a nice pump to it so dispensing the foundation out of this
container is not a hassle at all. This is the LA Girl Pro Illuminating Foundation in the shade
Bronze. The last and final foundation for today's video is the LA Girl Pro Matte High Definition
Foundation. So my shade in this one is called Cafe. Again this one has a beautiful frosted
glass bottle packaging with a nice pump. So none of these foundations have any issues regarding
the packaging. They all have good pumps to them so it's very very easy for you to dispense the
foundation out of these containers. Now this one is a very very good dupe to the Fenty Beauty Pro
Filter Foundation. I have compared this foundation to my high-end dupes video on my channel as well.
I'll try to put that video on the i on top of this screen if you're interested. And this is
meant for all you oily skin beauties out there. This is very very matte on the skin just like the
Pro Filter from Fenty Beauty. This is not as matte as the NYX Can't Stop, Won't Stop Foundation that is
super duper gripping matte. But this one has more of a soft matte effect on the skin. It blends
without any issues on the skin and coverage is medium to buildable full coverage again. With a
single layer you get medium coverage and upon building it up you do get a fuller coverage from
this foundation. This is the foundation that I'm wearing right now and as you can see it is a pretty
pretty good match on my complexion and I absolutely love the finish of this. It's a very unique sort of
a finish out of this foundation because it is matte but it looks super soft and blurry on the skin.
Kind of like a powdery matte finish but I absolutely love this on my oily skin. Again this is a very
very long lasting foundation on my super oily skin. The LA Girl Pro Coverage is a very very popular
foundation from them but nobody talks about this one but this is a very very beautiful foundation
from LA Girl. Especially if you have an oily skin type you should absolutely check out the LA Girl
Pro Matte Foundation. It does have that slight bit of smoothing and blurring properties to it but
it doesn't get to an extent that it looks super doll-like or artificial on the skin. It is pretty
much on the natural side. You can also use this foundation for your daily wear as well. It looks
pretty amazing and lasts really long on the skin and of course you can build it up to a fuller
looking coverage if you want to wear this foundation for an event or party. This doesn't have that
crazy yellow undertone like the Pro Illuminating Foundation from LA Girl. It's the perfect kind of
undertone for a foundation. I used to use the shade Caramel earlier. That kind of matched my face but
not my neck. The shade Cafe sort of matches my neck perfectly so if I want to look sort of even
all throughout I definitely like the shade Cafe better. Yeah the shade Cafe works pretty well on
my skin too. So this is how the LA Girl Pro Matte Foundation in the shade Cafe looks like.
So guys those were all my top favorite picks of foundation shades for dusky or deeper Indian
complexions that are available easily in the Indian market and they are all on the affordable
category as well so it is easily accessible to all of you watching. I do really love all of these
foundations on my dusky complexion. I like them for different reasons. So yeah this is it for
