I used to wear Medium Beige 129. Does anyone know which UK shade is the closest match?

That's the shade I used to wear. I ordered "Nouveau Beige" and it's a pretty near match, but be aware that the container is smaller by about a third. But here's the good news - for a very good substitute now that Max Factor very stupidly discontinued their FABULOUS Pan Stik foundation, try Kryolan TV Paint Stick foundation - this is a very, very good product and much cheaper than Max Factor because you get more and it lasts forever. I sent a color sample of Max Factor Medium Beige 129 to a vendor (either Stage Tones or Camera-Ready - I forget which one) and they color-matched it for me. The closest match was their Kryolan color OB1. This makeup is used for high definition TV but you can wear it everyday. It's not QUITE as good as Max Factor, but it's very, VERY good. I LOVE it, and will continue with it even if Max Factor resurrects Pan Stik. Check it out! You can find it on Amazon, or just google it. Another good substitute is made by theatrical cosmetics compay, Mehron, but I prefer Kryolan - FABULOUS !!! Check it out! Good luck!

I have light/medium and I don't have tan skin and this colour is perfect for me. I think that for tan skin is better the Medium120 colour. After this one, they have medium/deep and still Deep. Take a look at maybelline site. Good luck

This is a good question. I'm fair skinned and ordered the medium kit and that seemed to give me a little more color and coverage. I also tried other colors just to see and the best color I liked for winter is cappuccino. I know in the summer when I tan a bit I might have to go a little darker. Hope this helps.

Hi, its difficult to recommend without seeing, but either 101 Ivory Beige or 105 Soft Biege

I am very fair completed with light eyes and hair and I wear the light sheer. Not sure what the next deeper color would be. It really is sheer anyway, so I imagine it would blend in well if you went with the medium. My skin is so pretty withthis makeup, I love it's hydration.

This "universal" color or "for all skin types" is perfect for medium shade skin. I have mediterranean skin with olive hughes and it this shade works very well. Having said that, I would not use this shade if I had very fair or rich (African-American) skin color.

I purchased both the medium brown and the chocolate brown. I suggest ordering both so you make sure to get the perfect color match.

I have found that 05 is more of a cool colour. I have tried most of the colours from 01 to 05 and they are all good for pale skins just varying in the overall undertone.

I have the black suede one and its nice and soft. I can only assume that the beige is soft like the black I have

I have a similar skin tone and No. 53 Beige Clair is too dark for me. I can only use it during the summer when I have a little ten. I would recommend No. 52 Vanille. Is it's bit light you can always add a bit warmth with a bronzer.

I believe "Natural to Tan" is the darkest shade. I have fairly light skin so it blends perfectly. Their contact number: 1-800-227-0333

Hi - I have also used it for some time and it still is the right shade for me. Perhaps they can replace yours. I do know I accidentally ordered the matt not the original once and the matt seems much darker on my skin. Do you use the matt or the original?

Dear Arthurene, Thanks for your inquiry. The darkest shade is W15 - Sand Beige Thanks and regards Korean Springs

If I were using Covergirl myself, I'd be more of a Soft Honey and still I use the dark kit. I know some people would think it would be a very dark contour shade for me at first glance, but by the time I put it on and blend it out, I really like it. That being said, I'd probably recommend the dark kit...medium may not show as well unless you spent time building it up. Dark would probably be just right.

I would suggest Ivory. I wear mahogany in this and most other brands. The super stay brand is very tru to color shade matching

I'm olive skin tone and the medium was way too light.I guess it depends on the color of your skin.
