2. Customizing Undertones, Shades & Proportions
Welcome to Part 2 of my breakdown on The £12 foundation from Boots which Margot Robbie wore at the BAFTAs.
Before you lock in your final formula or outfit pairing, here is how I adapt the tones and textures for each client.

Finding Your Most Flattering Version
For fair-to-medium skin with neutral-pink undertones, this is a perfect match straight out of the tube.
If you’re warmer, I’ll mix a drop of liquid bronzer into the back of my hand before applying.
It keeps the formula’s texture while shifting the tone to golden.
For deeper complexions, I’ll layer a sheer concealer in the center of the face and let the foundation blend outward.
So the glow peeks through where light naturally hits.
The key is to never go full-coverage with this.
It’s meant to be your skin, just perfected.
✦ Which Finish Fits Your Vibe?
- Velvet Rose-Gold Glow: Effortless, soft-focus dimension that flatters every skin tone in daytime or candlelight.
- High-Impact Statement Finish: Crisp lines, rich pigment payoff, and bold contrast for evening events or street-style photos.
- Balanced Proportions: Keep one feature bold while letting the surrounding textures stay airy and breathable.
