Thought this was Sali for a second….

I find everything colour adaptive difficult, Tinted moisturisers that are white at first, lipsticks etc. They all turn a weird colour on me after a while.
Maybe I’m too acidic.

My skin tone is a cool olive/possibly neutral (I think but honestly idk). I find it really hard to match online

Sounds a bit like me. I’m pale but light foundations tend to look chalky on me, pink undertone look horrific, too much yellow makes me weirdly orange.

I’ve been mismatched at beauty counters a few times.

I watched her new bases video and must admit I'm baffled by something. The AI foundation. She said you have to submit a photo of yourself with no makeup on and in good bright natural light. But she thought she would try to 'trick' the method, by taking a selfie in dingy artificial light with fake tan on, to see how good they were. But it was still a perfect match.
My question - why? Why did she want to trick it? Surely it was a good enough test to see if they got it right by using the method they advised?
I've been puzzling over this for a while now tbh 😂

Either it’s just pot luck or it didn’t match!
is there also a questionnaire?

Well you specify what type of foundation you want eg sheer, full coverage, matte, glowy etc. I think that is it.
But yes I don't get what point she is trying to prove tbh with this tricking business. Surely for her followers it would've made far more sense to follow the instructions to the letter and see if they got it right then? As most people will do - we don't all have money to chuck at something and not really be bothered about the results.
(Though She Here's was kindly gifted - she got a voucher for it in a goody bag at some jolly she attended).
 
I just don’t believe AI would know how to adjust the lighting and fake tan face? There‘s no logical basis for it to pick the correct shade, if anything that would put me off because it’s preposterous! Psychic AI?

Although Sali is woeful at colour matching her own face, so it could just be that it’s wrong and she wouldn’t know 🤷🏼‍♀️

That's just it isn't it? Her experiment proved nothing. I agree with you that she put it on and thought it matched when it no doubt didn't.
Oh I forgot she went on about how though it was good she wouldn't use it again as she finds colour matching really easy - it's her job 😂 She's matched thousands of women. Its really for people who find it difficult.
 
That video is so overlong. She repeats everything about 3 times as if she’s talking to children. Then there’s all the double and triple adverbs. The amount of ‘so so so’ and ‘really really’ is infuriating, she needs a better vocabulary. I did laugh at the bit near the start where the builders are banging upstairs - her head jerks upwards and she’s fuming 🤣. She also puts her stupid little mic on half way through and the sound quality takes a nosedive 🙄 All together now -

Adaptive make up shading is nonsense. I saw a tiktok post with a chemist explaining it. It had never made sense to me. Its just that the pigment is in little beads that burst when you rub the cream in. It doesn't change to a different colour depending on the person at all. And if it was adapting depending to your pH that makes no sense either.

She repeats herself so much. It's really irritating. She'll describe a foundation then say 'to summarise' and repeat it all again a couple of times when it just isn't complicated and most of us can grasp 'it's glowy and sheer' on first telling. We don't need a variety of ways to tell us the exact same thing.
