The best foundations with the widest shade ranges

by All4Women
foundations with the widest shade ranges

It can be really tricky to find your shade when it comes to foundation, especially for medium skin tones or if you have yellow or red undertones. The wrong shade could have you looking darker, ghostly, or worse, orange…

Fortunately, these make-up brands have created collections with a wide range of shades. Say good-bye to the days of mixing foundations or wearing the wrong colour.

1. L.A Girl – 16 shades. Although this foundation from L.A Girl only has 16 shades, it delivers a wide shade range for people with darker skin tones. The PRO Coverage High-Definition Longwear Illuminating Liquid Foundation is also available, extending the colour range even further. L.A. Girl also has an innovative white foundation mixer so you can adjust and customise colour.

2. Bobbi Brown – 30 shades. This brand offers a unique service in helping you find your perfect foundation match. Customers choose their shade range and Bobbi Brown sends you a shade finder booklet that includes six samples for testing.

Pile on bottles, not on layers. Our Skin Long-Wear Weightless Foundation SPF 15 delivers full (yet natural) matte coverage while feeling comfortable on your skin #AllDaySmile
