Classic Foundation

Tip: Check your wrist veins:

Blue or purple = Cool undertones
Green or olive = Warm undertones
Blue-green = Neutral undertones

Once you know your undertone, simply choose the depth of colour, from the fairest shades to deeper, richer tones.

    I now never wear anything else on my skin. English Mineral Makeup is almost magical the way it blends and smooths my skin. Jeanette’s extensive knowledge of the way colour works on difficult skin tones like mine has revolutionised the way I view my face. I’m naturally very minimalist when it comes to makeup and this product is just perfect for a ‘put together’ but invisible look. I would give it six stars if I could.

    I have been using EMM classic foundation for nearly 2 years now. I have always worn quite heavy makeup due to acne and a reddish complexion in places. Since simplifying my skincare routine and using EMM my complexion has cleared considerably. I find it very easy to apply and find it lasts throughout the day. So grateful for this product!!

      Yay! so glad to read this – thank you Amy!

    What I like about the English Mineral Makeup is the company’s pursuit of natural products. Having had two facial operations, and healing up I’m very cautious as to what I can and will apply to my skin.
    I especially like the classic foundation using a cool medium, and I love to use the kabuki brush..makes a great application.

      Thank you for your kind words – we are so pleased to have helped you.

    This is my HOLY GRAIL foundation. It feels featherlight when applied, yet builds up to provide beautiful, even coverage that lasts all day. It’s like your skin—but way better. I wouldn’t use anything else now.

    This mineral makeup foundation is a game changer and is a must have if you want a seamless complexion without the heavy feel.
    As a celebrity makeup artist my clients love the feel of this product and how it looks. As my celebrity clients usually wear heavy makeup to make their skin perfect and flawless for HD TV, they all comment on how lightweight and breathable this foundation is but with a great full coverage which doesn’t wear off over time, even under hot stage lighting and under pressure whilst doing interviews. I use all of the products English Mineral Makeup Company have to offer in my pro kit, they last for ages and my clients all love them.

      Thank you so much for this incredible feedback! We’re truly honoured that our mineral foundation has become a must-have in your professional kit and is loved by your celebrity clients. Knowing that it performs flawlessly under studio lights and long filming days, while still feeling weightless and breathable, is exactly why we created it. Your words mean the world to us, and we’re so grateful you trust English Mineral Makeup to deliver natural, lasting beauty both on and off screen.
