I got this foundation in golden beige, and it is way darker than the image and swatch on Amazon shows, so it is too dark for me. Just to be sure I applied it when I didn't have to go anywhere anyway. I would caution that you should consider using a beauty sponge to apply this to get a lighter application because this truly is full coverage and looked a little cakey on the side that I used to blend with a buffing brush (when I first try a foundation I usually do one side with a brush and one with a beauty sponge to see which give the best coverage and overall look. This still looked dark on me despite using the sponge to do the lightest possible coverage. Just please beware, the color is much darker than that shown on the Amazon page.
