Depth is read from the colour of each shade’s swatch, so a shade near the edge of a band can land one band off.

FAQ

Questions about Estée Lauder shades.

How do I find my Estée Lauder foundation shade?

Start from a foundation you already wear, in any brand, and type its shade into the finder above. We compare its measured colour with every Estée Lauder shade we've measured and show the closest one in each Estée Lauder line. Shade names and numbers don't carry over between brands, so matching by colour is more reliable than matching by name. If you don't wear a foundation now, the camera finder can start you off from your skin.

Does Estée Lauder make foundation for deep skin?

Yes. 11 of the 63 Estée Lauder shades we've measured are deep or very deep, judged by the colour of each shade's swatch.

Which Estée Lauder foundation has the most shades?

Of the Estée Lauder lines we've measured, Double Wear Stay-in-Place Longwear Matte Foundation has the most, with 57 shades, followed by Double Wear Stay-in-Place Matte Powder Foundation with 40.

I wear Estée Lauder. How do I find my shade in another brand?

Search your Estée Lauder shade in the main shade finder. It shows the closest shade in every other brand we've measured, and where it costs less.

Not sure what your shade is in any brand?

Name a shade you’ve worn before, or scan your skin, and see your match across 100+ brands.
