Max Factor - Earth

This is the last of the Max Factors the lovely Director David over at Fashion Addict sent me to try.
Earth is a browny-terracotta colour - and sad to say, looks a bit icky on me...


It's just a bit wrong for my skin tone. I'm not sure who this would suit? Maybe someone lighter so there's a bit more contrast?
Good thing is, at least the formula's nice. A bit runny, but 2 coats gives you opaque coverage.


Not quite "mannequin hands", but close enough :)



Overall - the colour's not for me, but if you can pull it off it would probably be a good shade for work.

I seem to have a lot of trouble finding brown-ish colours that suit me. Anyone else find it's a particularly hard look to pull off?
