The best way to test your foundation shade is by applying it along your jawline. This allows you to see how well it blends with both your face and neck. Make sure to consider the overall skin tone of your neck and chest to find a shade that creates a natural, seamless match.

Neutral Undertone
A balanced mix of warm and cool tones, neither too pink nor too yellow. Your veins may appear greenish-blue.

Cool Undertone
Hints of blue or purple with an overall pinkish hue. Your veins usually look blue or purple.

Warm Undertone
Golden, peach or honey tones beneath the skin. Your veins tend to look green.

Our complexion shades use letters to indicate skin undertones: C for Cool, N for Neutral, and W for Warm.

The numbers indicate your shade depth, lower numbers mean lighter shades, while higher numbers represent deeper tones.

We use the Match My Makeup tool, which uses scientific colour analysis to help you find your perfect Nude by Nature shade based on your foundation from other brands.

While personal preference plays a role, the general recommendation is to opt for the lighter shade. A foundation that's slightly too light is easier to adjust by adding warmth and dimension using bronzer, blush or contour. A shade that's too dark can appear unnatural and may create a noticeable line of demarcation along the jawline.

Exceptions to consider:
If your skin tans easily or you're shopping for a summer foundation, the darker shade might be a better match.
If you regularly contour, a lighter base can provide better contrast for sculpting and definition.

Yes, there may be slight variations in shade across different foundation formats. Each formula—whether liquid, powder, or stick—uses a unique blend of pigments, binders, and finishes that can influence how the shade appears on the skin once applied and blended.
For example, oil-based formulas can make pigments look warmer or more luminous, while water-based ones may appear more neutral. Cream and stick foundations often appear more saturated due to their concentrated texture.

Shade Matching Tips
1. Test along your jawline – not your hand or wrist – to ensure a seamless match between your face and neck.
2. Always check in natural light, as in-store lighting can distort how the shade really looks.
3. Pay attention to undertones – sometimes the issue isn’t the depth of the shade, but whether it’s a warm, cool, or neutral tone.
4. Adjust seasonally – your skin tone may change with the seasons, so having a summer and winter shade can help maintain a perfect match year-round.

Mineral makeup refers to cosmetics made with micronized mineral pigments. By definition, it should be crafted from naturally occurring ingredients and free from controversial or potentially irritating additives commonly found in conventional makeup. However, not all mineral makeup is created equal.

Nude by Nature offers true mineral makeup, formulated with naturally derived ingredients and without common fillers like Talc or Bismuth Oxychloride, and free from synthetic ingredients such as Silicones and Parabens.

Mineral pigments are naturally derived from minerals, naturally occurring substances found in rocks and within the earth. At Nude by Nature, we primarily use iron oxides, which deliver rich, high-performance colour and coverage without compromising on payoff.

Mineral makeup is a skin-loving alternative to traditional foundation formulas, it is lightweight, breathable, and ideal if you have sensitive skin, acne-prone or reactive skin.

At Nude by Nature, our products are also pregnancy-safe and made with naturally derived ingredients that help to care for your skin without compromising on performance or coverage.
