Why This Works for Pale Olives
Here's the secret sauce - even though it's labeled as neutral, this foundation has the most olive tones I've ever found. That muted grayish green quality is exactly what we pale olives need to avoid looking too pink, yellow, or orange. It's like they bottled our exact undertone!

My Custom Mixing Technique
Since I have a bit of summer color, I usually mix this foundation with a tiny bit of white or a lighter foundation to adjust for any oxidation or dry-down changes. On the left, you can see the foundation by itself - it's just a tiny bit dark. On the right, with my white mixer added, it matches my neck perfectly while keeping that beautiful olive tone intact.

It wears beautifully throughout the day and truly lets that olive undertone shine through without any color correction needed.
