      A special gift from the universe for a lost brown girl

      As a lost brown girl who grew up without the luxury of being able to find the right shade to match her beautiful melanin-rich brown skin tone, I’m so ever grateful for All Shades Matter for launching their foundation line for people of colour.

      I've got oily skin and this foundation is the perfect addition to my ever growing collection. Having worn the foundation a few times, I have never felt so beautiful and proud, giving me the boost of confidence to walk out of the doors feeling like I’m about to conquer the world. It’s so lightweight and doesn’t feel like you are wearing makeup.

      Love it

      I love the texture of this foundation. I was scared when I saw how small the package is, but a little goes a long way! I definitely use less of this foundation than others I’ve used before. I great coverage and it feels lovely on my skin. I used the shade natch assist to determine my shade and it got it 100% correct!

      Just Perfect! 👌

      I absolutely love my MATTERfying foundation. It feels amazing and blends into my skin so nicely. As a person of colour, I have struggled to find the right shade that could match my skin tone especially a foundation that is gentle on the skin without causing any rashes or redness. This 20 captivate definitely ticks all the boxes for me I am not even exaggerating. Everything about it is just right, the smell, the texture and the natural end result it gives your face. If you are looking for something elegant but calm and that can give you that natural glow I highly recommend this. ✨️

      beautiful coverage and sits well

      I had never heard of this brand until a MUA did my make up and used it and I loved it! I find it difficult for MUAs to get my foundation right and normally end up looking too dark or orange but this shade was perfect. It sat so well on my face and lasted all day and night without changing colour and got so many compliments! It didn’t go super oily either or cakey.
