@amvndahoang , you can use a white mixer to lighten the shade. 

If it's a light coverage foundation, MAC has white Face and Body foundation. I am waiting for mine to come in the mail, so I haven't tried this out yet.

If it's a medium-full coverage, I'd recommend the Manic Panic Dreamtone white foundation on amazon. It's a good price ($8-$9) and doesn't seem to change the consistency of my foundations. You can use this with thinner/light coverage foundations too, but I think it will change the original foundation too much.

NYX has one for $10, but I did not like it. It affected the coverage and lasting power of my foundations. 

I hope that's helpful!

There are white mixers to lighten foundation. I have never used one but consider it an option instead of purchasing new foundations @amvndahoang
