Oops - just saw that you had already ordered. I can't speak for the Ivory - the shade I have is Creamy Beige (and I'm quite fair - if you check out any of the videos/photos on this site you can see my skin tone). Just looking at their list of colours, this one is #3 in terms of lightness... kind of surprising as I'm usually one of the very lightest shades. So I can only imagine how ghostly the Ivory must be! Yikes.  Hope you are able to return.

I agree about the spreadability, but for me this was a bonus as I hate anything too creamy on my skin. This dries down very fast to a nice "skin" finish where you don't feel like you're wearing anything at all.
