Hi! Maybe go to a professional make-up artist (or cosmetologist, if that's what you call it) and get advice?  I know that they can mix up a custom shade of just about anything for you...could be kinda pricey $$$$$$$$$$$. Good luck to ya!

Baby flower, Have you tried Revlon products? They have 12 different shades of COLORSTAY  foundation for virtually any skin shade.

You should really try out the MAC line of foundations. I actually have a good freind who is also half Asian and half black, and this is one of the only companies that she has found a good match with. They have a really extensive line of colours, and the product is fairly reasonably priced. I know another makeup artist who recommends this line for Asain skine tones, so you should look into it.

Have you considered Aromaleigh? They have 31 shades of foundation to choose from in two formulas: Pure Powder (PP) and Pure Cover (PC). PP offers light to medium coverage. PC offers heavy coverage. Plus you can have a blend within the individual sections or a combination of the two. You may have good luck with the linens as they have beige tones only. 
  ------------- Have a wonderful day! {hugs}
