Shade recommendations based on the other colorescience products

If you already use Colorescience Tint du Soleil Foundation or Colorescience Sunforgettable Brush-on Sunscreen, it’s easy to find your match since you already know if you’re Light, Medium, Tan or Deep. If you’re new to Colorescience, decide with of the four shades you fall under and choose your Natural Finish Pressed Foundation SPF 20 based on the following.

Light will match you to the Light Ivory shade in Colorescience Natural Finish Pressed Foundation SPF 20. Deep will match you to Deep Mocha. Medium skin tones will need to decide whether they are on the lighter or deeper side of medium. Medium Bisque is lighter, while Medium Sand is deeper. Tan skin tones should choose between Tan Natural for a lighter tan or Tan Golden for a deeper tan. Since all shades are neutral, they’ll blend seamlessly into skin and match a wide range of tones.
