I've read where some people add up to a full pot Chenille eyeshadow to fair for a "porcelain" foundation shade. I've also heard rumor that there may be some new foundation shades this year, including at least one lighter-than-fair color.

Stay far, far away from Meet the Plums. Heck, stay away from anything called "Meet the" unless it's Stones. I've been very happy with that one, but the others are lousy. I love the Guilty Pleasures 9 eyeshadow kit and the Get Started Eyes kit; and Vanilla Sugar (my favorite BE item!), Heart and Bare Skin for individual pots.

I just looked, and qvc.uk does sell BE. Maybe that might be a more affordable way for you to get your BE?
