Why I Love It
I have been using this foundation for years and it became a fast favourite in my routine. It blends effortlessly into the skin for a natural and flawless finish. Light to medium coverage builds beautifully without ever looking or feeling heavy or cakey, and it leaves your skin radiantly dewy all day. Users with sensitive skin and combination textures (like me!) rave about its breathable, non-greasy feel.
Clean Ingredients That Nourish
Ere Perez doesn’t just avoid nasties, they choose ingredients that nourish with intention:
- Oat milk soothes, balances pH, and supports the skin barrier.
- Peach extract adds a natural glow and gentle exfoliation.
- Vitamin E protects with antioxidants and hydrates.
- Plus 91% allergen-free ingredients — no parabens, formaldehyde, talc or lanolin.
Ingredients like cocaprylate/caprate (a silky emollient) and glycerin (a hydrating humectant) ensure it glides on the skin and keeps it happy, not clogged.

Why It Beats Chemical-Rich Foundations
Unlike chemical-heavy liquid foundations, the Ere Perez Oat Milk Foundation:
- Avoids synthetic fragrances, silicones and petroleum derivatives that can aggravate skin.
- Allows your skin to breathe, reducing breakouts and congestion.
- Continues your clean-beauty promise: cruelty-free, vegan and eco-conscious.

Shade Range & Matching
With 12 radiant shades from cool porcelain to rich ebony, finding your match is easy. But I get it, choosing a foundation shade online can be tricky which is why I offer sample pots so you can find your perfect shade match before buying the full size tube.
How to Swatch Foundation to find your perfect shade match
When you receive your foundation samples, you will want to swatch them on your skin to determine which shade is best for you. Below are some pro tips to help you through this process:natural light.
-
Always Test in Natural Light: Indoor lighting can cast shadows or colour shifts. Step near a window or outside to see the true undertone and depth of the foundation.
-
Apply Along Your Jawline (Not Your Wrist!): Your jawline blends your face and neck tones, it’s the best place to test for a seamless match. The wrist is often much lighter or different in undertone.
-
Try 2–3 Shades Side by Side: Swatch a few similar tones next to each other, one that looks like a match, one slightly lighter, and one slightly darker. This makes it easier to see which melts into your skin.
-
Let It Sit for 5–10 Minutes: Some foundations oxidise or adjust slightly as they dry, so wait a few minutes before deciding.
-
Blend Gently, But Don’t Rub In Completely: Tap and softly blend just the edges of your swatch. You want to see how the colour behaves on top of your skin, not just absorbed into it.
-
Check in Multiple Light Settings:Â Glance at your swatch in both natural and indoor light (bathroom mirror lighting is a major culprit for mismatches!).
- Consider Your Undertone:Â Cool (pink/blue), warm (yellow/golden), or neutral (a mix)? The Ere Perez Oat Milk Foundation has a well-balanced range across undertones so knowing yours can help you filter fast.
My Application Routine
Here’s how I like to apply the Ere Perez Oat Milk Foundation to achieve the most natural and flawless finish:
- Prep skin with hydrating serum or primer.
- Taking a small amount of the foundation on my fingers, apply starting from the centre of the face and blend out. The warmth from my fingertips helps to effortlessly melt the foundation into my skin for a second skin-like finish.
- Use a damp Ere Perez Bio All-Beauty Sponge to bounce and blend or the Ere Perez Vegan Eco Multipurpose Brush to help achieve an even coverage.
- Add an extra layer to anywhere you require more coverage. For me it's on my cheeks where I experience some redness and pigmentation.
- Voila, you have created a radiant and natural finish. I then like to follow with the Ere Perez Carrot Colour Pot on the cheeks, Mango Lip Honey on the lips and Aloe Gel through the brows for a natural and glowing complexion.
The Results
- Formula Feel: Lightweight and breathable — you won’t feel it, but it’s definitely there.
- Coverage: Medium, buildable, skin-enhancing.
- Finish: Natural dewiness (not oily — just fresh).
- Ingredients: Thoughtful, clean and nourishing.
- Clean Edge: Clear conscience, you’re wearing a foundation that cares for your skin & the planet.

Best For...
Perfect for those with combination, normal, or sensitive skin, or anyone looking for a clean, everyday foundation. Not ideal if you need super full coverage or oil-control foundations, but it pairs beautifully with powders or concealers for that finish.

Thoughtful Packaging
In addition to its skin-loving formula, the Ere Perez Oat Milk Foundation comes housed in a tube made from Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) plastic, making it a more environmentally responsible choice.
