L.A. Girl Pro Matte Mixing Pigment, Blue

After struggling with foundations that lean too orange or warm for my neutral-to-cool undertone, I thought I’d have to give up on several bottles I already owned. Thankfully, I discovered the L.A. Girl PRO.color Foundation Mixing Pigment in Blue, and it’s completely changed how I manage my base makeup. If you’ve ever purchased a foundation that oxidizes too warm or simply isn’t a true match, this pigment is a lifesaver. I did some research on color theory and learned that a touch of blue neutralizes excess orange or overly warm undertones in foundation—and this product does exactly that. The formula is lightweight and blends beautifully into liquid and cream foundations, including both traditional foundations and sheer skin tints. It doesn’t alter the texture or finish of the original product, which is a huge plus. My matte formulas stay matte, and my dewy tints keep their glow. It also doesn’t add weight or make the foundation feel cakey or heavy on the skin. I typically add a very small amount—just a drop or two—onto the back of my hand or mixing palette, and then gradually blend it into my foundation. The result is a much more natural-looking match for my skin tone. It’s also helped me stretch my makeup budget since I no longer feel the need to throw away foundations that didn’t work initially. Pros: Effectively neutralizes orange or overly warm undertones Lightweight formula that mixes easily Works well with both skin tints and full-coverage foundations Doesn’t alter the original finish or performance Saves money by reviving "off" foundation shades Cons: It’s easy to overdo it—start with a tiny amount and build slowly Final Thoughts: This blue pigment has become a permanent staple in my makeup routine. If you have a drawer full of foundations that aren’t quite right, don’t toss them—just mix in a little of this pigment and you’ll be amazed at the transformation. Highly recommend for makeup artists, enthusiasts, or anyone struggling with foundation color match issues.

I don’t hype a product unless it deserves it. Don’t be afraid of the product brand, worrying if it is a lesser known brand or lesser reputation because get that out of your head right now. This stuff is the business. I own several high end foundations that I have stored up and unable to use because while they are in the right “shade” they are too dark. I have heard some buzz in tiktok and some influencers mention mixing pigments and this one in particular, and for 8$ I figured it wouldn’t hurt to try considering I have hundreds of dollars of unusable foundations I have to wait until summer or abuse my skin to get it tan enough to use those shades. I purchased this in white, and figured I’d come back for blue if needed (currently blue is out of stock while I’m writing this) but as soon as I got it I went to work pulling out some of my coveted foundations to mix up and see if this would work. Some key things I was looking for were; shade lightening, change of consistency, longevity with wear while mixed, and if if would change the overall wear of my foundation. Here’s my findings. It lightened the shades perfect, depending on how many pumps of white I added. The integrity of the consistency of the foundation was not changed with the addition of the white pigment. It still went on flawless as if there was nothing added to it. Some of the foundations it was added to were long west and some were not. The king wear ones were not effected whatsoever and were still not transferring after application. The ones that were not marketed as transferproof did have some transfer BEFORE setting but after setting there was no transfer. There was no separation throughout the day with either. While reading through reviews on here I was curious what formulas of foundation this pigment would work with so I will add that in here. I added this to serum foundations as well as long wears. The foundations I tested with this pigment in white are as follows; Estée Lauder long wear, Il makiage, Lancome comfort and care, it cosmetics, and Tom ford. All performed flawlessly as if nothing was added. I hope this review is helpful to someone looking for some more clarifying answers. Also I did not mix in the bottle I squirted some out on mixing palette to mix until I got desired color. This stuff is great and cannot wait to try out the blue also. This is worth more than 8$!

Perfect for the clown look. Although it took a while to dry, the final result was highly pigmented! It dried onto the skin as a regular foundation & deep coverage on color. The photos speak for themselves. This was worn for 10 hours no smudges!

It was super light weight but it took a lot of laying to get a good base on my skin because I have tan skin it also lifted really easy but other than that it was really good

Good coverage, texture is as any other liquid foundation, the more layers the more coverage, I used to layers on this photo and set with translucent setting powder. Stayed on my face for 12hrs, I removed it myself, but I bet it would've probably lasted a lot longer. Works best on moisturized skin. Eyeshadows and contours apply nicely over it.

Foundations have always pulled too warm on me. This product has allowed me to keep my foundations but make them my perfect shade. It doesn’t affect the consistency or performance of the foundation. I’ve used this on skin tints and full coverage foundations and it performs great on all.

It's okay for the first hour. Very cakey and will separate from the corners of your nose and the mouth area. I only recommend if leaving on for a short period of time. Does contain ingredients that will make you break out if you have acne prone skin

Decent coverage for gothic and alt style looks, goes on smooth and holds well, used it for a comic con and it stayed on the whole day
