Inconsistent Make-Up.

I'm having a huge problem with my base. I've been using the same base since high school and I have never had a problem. I found the color that was perfect "Buff Beige"and the brand that was perfect CG Smoothers. When I went to the store awhile back they were out of the stuff I usually get so I got some stuff that was same brand, same color (CG Continuous Wear). They were in the same bottle, same brand, same color. So I figured it's all the same but maybe the texture would be different. I was so wrong it made me look like a ghost. It was 3 shades lighter then what I normally wear. Well same thing happened again last week they were out of my normal base so I new better then to get Continuous Wear again. I saw TRUblend and it was on sale and I had heard good things about it from my sister. So I got it (same brand, same color) thinking the same thing that I thought about the other base. Again I was wrong. I should have learned my leason from before but this time the color was 3 shades darker. I left it on because I wasn't really in the mood to wash my face and start all over. When my hubby came home he noticed the difference and said my face looked grey. I really like cover girl but how can you say they are all the same color when they are not. So the color wheels they have to match your skin with is probally inaccurate too. I'm very disappointed and I hate wasting money on make-up because it's so expencive.

That is so weird!!! I would think that it all should be the same color because it is the same brand. Maybe it is a conspiracy to get you to spend more money on their products!
