Having trouble finding a cheaper foundation

[krisparker]

I went to a Sephora and had someone find my foundation color. The one she matched me with was Bobbi Brown skin foundation 7.25 warm almond but i am on a budget. What foundation color would be similar to that

You might also want to try the foundation matrix at temptalia. You can put in your foundation color by brand and product name and it will list out foundations with similar color profiles.

Hi @krisparker, here's a really helpful tip for finding other shades of foundation that'll work for you using Sephora's ColorIQ service. 

Follow this link, scroll down to "Don’t have a Color IQ number yet?"

and choose the brand of foundation you were matched with, and click GO:

Next, choose the formula and then the shade from the screen that pops up.

Voila! Lots of color matches! ColorIQ is not perfect, but I've found it's at least reliable most of the time for cross-matching across brands. 

Hope this helps!
