How to choose the right foundation shade and undertone.

Which foundation is right for me?

It’s one of the most frequently asked beauty questions. And rightly so. The right foundation makes the difference between a fresh, even complexion and a visibly layered makeup look.

At Cent Pur Cent, we believe foundation should enhance your skin, not conceal it. That’s why this blog guides you step by step in making the right choice.

How do you know which undertone you have?

Your undertone is the foundation of everything.
It does not change with the seasons. Your skin tone may become lighter or darker, but your undertone remains the same. At Cent Pur Cent, we work with three undertones: pink, yellow and neutral.

  • A pink undertone is often seen in skin that reddens more quickly or looks somewhat dull.
  • A yellow undertone is more common in skin with redness or a warmer appearance.
  • A neutral undertone sits nicely between the two.

Are you unsure whether you have a pink or yellow undertone?
Then neutral is usually the safest choice. Our Loose Mineral Foundation is fully tailored to this approach and logically organised by undertone. This method is based on professional skin analysis and is used daily by beauty experts.
