Why is it so hard to find that perfect foundation match? Well, now your foundation has met its match. Introducing the PRO.color Foundation Mixing Pigment. 4 pigments adjust the color of your foundation to give you an exact match that’s as unique as you. The White, Blue and Orange are formulated with the same soft matte finish as our PRO.matte Foundation to ensure consistency in the formula. The blue has a translucent, gel-like texture to keep it easy to work with, so your foundation looks like you, and not blue.

Let’s get mixing!

  • Customize your foundation shade to match you
  • Shift undertones warmer & cooler
  • White, yellow & orange have a soft matte finish
  • Blue mixing pigment as a translucent, gel formula
  • Cruelty-free, paraben-free & vegan

White – lightens your foundation, perfect for adjusting your summer color to match your winter tone.

Yellow – gives your foundation a golden undertone.

Orange – shifts foundation to a warmer undertone, ideal for medium to dark foundations.

Blue - Neutralizes foundation. If your foundation is too warm or orange looking, add a little blue to bring it back to a neutral undertone.

Tip: add blue mixer to a yellow undertone foundation to create an olive undertone.

Tip: Use the white mixer as a white foundation for an artistic or Halloween makeup look.

Use with PRO.matte Foundation for best results.

There's nothing I love more than a good makeup hack. DIY disco eyes? Sign me up. Setting spray hacks to make my makeup transfer-proof? Immediately yes. I will try any and everything that my TikTok algorithm tells me to.

Still, I am a beauty editor at my core, so I often approach social media trends with a healthy dose of skepticism — and this latest technique is one of them. As explained by TikToker Mireya Rios, this hack involves using a stark white foundation or concealer, before applying your foundation and the rest of your products. In turn, your makeup is supposed to look like a filter. Given that I am a Black woman, I have never in my life used white foundation for anything, much less put it on my face in an effort to help perfect my makeup. Still, my curiosity won and I set out to give it a try and got some surprising results.

How to Do the White Base Foundation Hack

To start, I applied the Colorfix as my base, making sure to blend in sections, as it dries very quickly. After sufficiently making myself look like a ghost, I went over it with the actual foundation. At this point, I was still pretty skeptical because my face was looking grey, at best, but Rios did advise that you do the rest of your makeup routine to see the full effect, so I carried on.

Does the White Base Makeup Hack Work?

I went on to add my favorite concealer, bronzer, and blush, and it was only then that I started to see some semblance of the makeup look I'm used to. In fact, I actually really liked the way my face turned out. Now, would I go as far as to call it a filter? No. There were a few areas on my cheeks that I felt looked a little more grey than I would have liked, but overall, my face didn't look as ghostly as I was expecting it to.

As for whether the hack works, I'd say yes and no. I didn't notice as much of a blurring effect as I would have liked and as someone with acne-prone, textured skin, that's definitely what I look for in an actual filter. Still, the hack is fantastic if you have a darker foundation that you've been trying to use up or are in between shades as you start to navigate summer travels and tanned skin. So, while it's not something I'd employ on a regular basis, this is a useful (and very timely) hack that I will be keeping in my back pocket for emergency use.
