Everything you need to know about Huda’s all-new #FauxFilter Luminous Matte Liquid Foundation

If you were a fan of the original #FauxFilter foundation from {Huda Beauty} then you’ve come to the right place because since launching their all-new and utterly must-have {#FauxFilter Luminous Matte Liquid Foundation} the shade range has increased – woo! – but that also means that your old shade miiiight have changed too.

With 39 Huda Beauty {foundation} shades to choose from, we’re here to help you find your perfect match – whether you’re transitioning from your previous shade or you’re new to the HB gang.

WHAT’S MY UNDERTONE?

Before we dig into the shades, here’s a little explanation of undertones to help you choose your shade.

Golden and Red (AKA warm undertone)

You have a warm undertone if:

  • Your veins look green in natural light
  • Gold jewellery looks best on you
  • Your skin has a slight yellow or golden tint

If this is you, look for Huda Beauty shades marked G (gold) or R (red).

Beige (AKA cool undertone)

You have a cool undertone if:

  • Your veins look blue in natural light
  • Silver jewellery looks best on you
  • Your skin has a slight pink or blue tint

If this is you, look for Huda Beauty shades marked B (beige).

Neutral (AKA…neutral!)

You have a neutral undertone if:

  • Your veins look a combination of blue and green in natural light
  • Both silver and gold jewellery looks good on you
  • Your skin has an equal balance of pink/blue and yellow

If this is you, look for Huda Beauty shades marked N (neutral).

FIND YOUR MATCH

Before we begin… we’ve got a handy tip for any Huda Beauty complexion obsessives. If you have tried Huda’s {#FauxFilter Skin Finish Buildable Coverage Foundation Stick}, then your new {#FauxFilter Luminous Matte Liquid Foundation} should be the same. If they look different before swatching, that’s because the liquid takes time to develop to its ‘true shade’, so please allow time for this.

Otherwise, here’s our guide to matching your all-new {#FauxFilter Luminous Matte Liquid Foundation} to the OG. You’re welcome beauties…
