How to find the right foundation for your skin tone

Now that you’ve seen all 30 shades, it’s time to find the perfect shade for your skin tone. This might seem like a daunting task, but it doesn’t have to be if you follow a few easy steps.

Step 1. Use your undertones as a guideline.

Some skin tones are warmer and some are cooler, just like some foundations are warmer and cooler. Make sure you choose a foundation that works with your undertones. If you’re not sure what your undertones are, look at the veins in your wrist. If your veins are more green, that means you have warm undertones. If they are more of a blue or purple colour, you have cool undertones.

Step 2. Choose two or three shades that might work for your skin tone.

If you think you are the shade Golden Sun, you might want to test one shade darker (Golden Amber) and one shade lighter (Radiant Sand) to be sure. You can test all three shades by depositing a small amount of product on your finger and swatching it on your neck, just below your jawline.

Step 3. Compare and contrast.

When you’re choosing which foundation is best for your skin tone, make sure that you’re in natural light as this will give you the most accurate comparison. Also, don’t forget to pay attention to what time of year it is. For example, if it’s the end of the summer and you have a tan, you might want to shade down so that your foundation will work into the colder months.

How to apply liquid foundation like a pro

Once you’ve landed on the perfect shade of foundation, it’s time to start wearing it. You can apply liquid foundation using a brush, a sponge or your fingertips. There’s no right tool to use; it’s purely a matter of preference. We recommend depositing a little bit of foundation on the back of your hand before you go in with your tool and apply the product to your face. Once you have achieved the coverage you want, it’s time to blend! This is where a tool like L’Oréal Paris Infallible Foundation Blender comes in handy. Use it to buff out harsh edges and lines so you’re left with a flawless finish.
