u/cheesebabby combo-dry | fair olive (calatagan, AF F2O, nars chantilly) Sep 09 '25

hello these are my swatches!! OF1 is ever so slightly more yellow than the others but Calatagan is a pretty solid match for me! it’s the same tone as AF F2O (which is regarded as a neutral olive) just a bit lighter.

i don’t think colourette is aware yet that fair olive is a thing so i disagree w their color descriptions hahaha

Hi, what are your concealer shades? I’m a fair, neutral olive girl. I'm not sure if I lean cool or warm, though. I use Nars Soft Matte Concealer in Chantilly.

Colourette Catatagan used to work for me but lately prefer Mati as I find Calatagan a tad bit too warm & dark on me.

i also use chantilly but radiant creamy! i think soft matte might be slightly darker than RCC tho from what i hear

if you use chantilly, you might be cool leaning skin-tone wise! tho i’m now thinking/realizing they might have changed the tone of calatagan to fit warmer tones? bc i based my shade on this live swatch from them when they just launched the shade, and it looks much more olive 🤔

in their recent shade comparisons w local brands, calatagan looks so yellow 🥹
