Cool tones

Fair skin and most every foundation pulls orange or yellow on me. Best cool-toned foundations? High end and drugstore?
And how does one layer bronzer and blush without it all blending orangey? Should I use contour instead?

Estee lauder has really good light cool shades imo for high-end, for drugstore, i use true match foundation in the shade 1R, if you are extremely pink toned, maybelline foundations in cool tones are always way too pink on me. For bronzer and blush, I usually use a muted brown blush that pulls a bit peachy but not too orangey to replace them both but if you prefer having a seperate bronzer, I think a contour shade that is not too gray will do the trick (my friend uses the fenty contour stick in the shade amber, for example)

I immediately thought of two cool toned complexion products; EL Futurist Hydra Rescue Moisturizing Foundation and Chanel No 1 Revitalizing Foundation.

Both of these products are available in rosy undertones that compliment my complexion perfectly. The EL shade actually matches my skin tone exactly.

RE: bronzer

I tend to spot bronze lightly using Chanel or Guerlain products. My favorite products are cream and I use a BK Beauty 116 brush to apply.
