Angry Revlon

I use Revlon One-Step make up which is like a powder and foundation in one. I really only wear makeup when I'm going out and very light. The shade I wear is called Caramel but in the summer time I go a shade darker and wear Cappucino. I've noticed that everywhere I go looking for Cappucino, I can't find it and Caramel is the darkest. So I checked Revlon's website and Caramel, which is the shade that Halle Berry wears, is the darkest shade they make now. WTF is dat about??? So dark women don't want Revlon too? steeeups.

The Revlon has a light shimmer to it which is one of the reasons that I really like it. Is the L'Oreal like that too?

no not really.. it has a matte finish. i am trying to find one that will help me to look like i do just after i wash my face and apply moisturizer. Clean, bright but not oily which is my problem. But this is the second best thing to no shimmer(at least i think so and especially for the price)

I use True Match as well, but the liquid. I have oliy skin and use and use a powder to matte it down. If you have oily skin I think this is what you are supposed to do.

But they used to sell darker tones because when I used to buy Cappucino for the summer, I used to see darker tones.
