How to Choose your Foundation Shade

Find your Perfect Foundation: Shade Matching with Ere Perez

Finding the right foundation, concealer, or base product shouldn’t feel overwhelming - it should feel effortless, like it was made just for you. The secret? Understanding your undertone. When you know your undertone, you’re not just picking a shade - you’re choosing a match that enhances your natural beauty, not competes with it.

One beauty brand that prioritises undertones in their formulas is Ere Perez. Known for their commitment to clean beauty, Ere Perez formulates makeup with skin-loving ingredients that enhance rather than mask. Their shades are thoughtfully designed to complement a wide range of undertones, making it easier to find a seamless match.

What’s your undertone?

Your skin tone might deepen with sun exposure, but your undertone never changes. It’s that subtle hue beneath the surface that gives your complexion its signature warmth or coolness. And don’t worry, identifying it is easier than you think!

The three undertone families:

• Cool undertones have hints of blue, pink, or red. 
• Warm undertones glow with golden, yellow, or peachy hues.
• Neutral undertones are a balanced blend of warm and cool.

How to Uncover Your Undertone

Not sure where you fall? You don’t need to be a beauty expert… Just try these simple tricks:

The vein test: Flip your wrist under natural light.

• If your veins look blue or purple, you’re likely cool-toned.
• If they appear greenish, you’re probably warm. 
• If you see a mix of both, you may be neutral.

The jewellery test: Do you shine brighter in silver or gold?

• Silver tends to flatter cool undertones.
• Gold makes warm undertones glow.
• If both suit you, neutral might be your sweet spot.

How your skin reacts to the sun:

• If you burn easily, you’re likely cool-toned.
• If you tan effortlessly, you lean warm.
• A little of both? You could be neutral.

Makeup that Considers Undertones

Many beauty brands focus on skin tone, but Ere Perez goes a step further by formulating products with undertones in mind. Their multi-flex shade range ensures a match for every complexion, whether you have cool, warm, or neutral undertones.

Two standout products include the Ere Perez Oat Milk Foundation, a lightweight formula that blends effortlessly, and the Ere Perez Arnica All-Cover Pot Concealer, a creamy, buildable concealer designed for adaptable coverage. With products crafted to enhance and complement individual undertones, Ere Perez makes finding your perfect shade easier than ever.

Because beauty should feel natural, effortless, and uniquely yours.
