Oat Milk Foundation for your clean foundation review

Hi Stephanie,

I'm Ere, founder of Ere Perez. I've been making clean, sensitive-safe makeup since our first mascara in 2002.

I loved your clean foundation review, especially testing on two very different skin types, and I'd love our Oat Milk Foundation considered for the next update. It meets your four criteria:

Nontoxic: more than 2,700 ingredients left out, including silicones, parabens and synthetic fragrance, and every ingredient is on the label. Vegan and PETA certified cruelty free.

Shade matching: 16 shades, a shade quiz that takes under a minute, and a shade finder that matches from the foundation you wear now.

Skincare first: oat, peach and vitamin E, with light, buildable medium coverage and a dewy finish. Best Foundation/Concealer at the Clean & Conscious Awards 2025.

Affordable: $44, shipped from our US warehouse.

Happy to send full size tubes for both testers. Tell me the shade you each wear now and we'll match it.

Warmly,
Ere
