Description
Semi-matte liquid foundation for light-medium skin with a neutral undertone
Women with light-medium skin tones know the frustration: light shades are just too pale, medium shades just too opaque or dark. They fall into a color zone often skipped or poorly covered by many brands. The result is a compromise — a shade that almost fits, but not quite.
The Jane Iredale Beyond Matte M4 is developed specifically for this skin tone. The 3-in-1 formula combines primer, concealer, and foundation in one light, stable layer that evens out the skin without masking its natural tone. For light-medium skin, M4 offers coverage and color accuracy that makes compromise unnecessary.
Color: M4 is a warm sand beige with a neutral undertone — a bridging shade that seamlessly matches light-medium skin tones without weighing down or fading.

Active ingredients
Celery seed and flaxseed extract: For a light-medium skin tone, an even color representation without visible pores or spots is essential for a polished look. The brand-specific combination of celery seed and flaxseed works on both fronts: celery seed extract regulates sebum production, helping the foundation stay in place longer, while flaxseed extract visually smooths the skin texture for a uniform complexion.
Tamarind extract: Tamarind acts as a plant-based moisturizing buffer in the formula. It supports the skin's suppleness throughout the day and prevents the foundation from caking or cracking in dry areas — such as around the nose or mouth. For light-medium skin prone to dryness in certain zones, this is an important benefit.
Jojoba oil: The waxy texture of jojoba oil makes it ideal as a binder between the skin and the formula. It blends with the skin's sebum and creates an even, skin-like base without leaving a coating or heavy feeling. For light-medium tones, jojoba contributes to a color representation that maintains depth and vibrancy.
Honeysuckle Extract (Lonicera Caprifolium & Japonica): The dual honeysuckle combination acts as a plant-based preservative system that keeps the formula stable without burdening the skin with synthetic preservatives. The extract also has a mild soothing effect on skin sensitive to makeup.
Tocopherol (Vitamin E): Vitamin E protects both the skin and the formula from oxidation. As an antioxidant, it neutralizes free radicals that can dull the skin tone and helps maintain an even, bright color appearance of the foundation throughout the day.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if the Jane Iredale Beyond Matte M4 is the right shade for me?
M4 is the ideal choice for a light-medium skin tone with a neutral undertone — neither too warm nor too cool. Compare your skin color with the swatch and still unsure? Jane Iredale offers a 100% color match guarantee, so you always find the right shade.
Can I also use M4 as a concealer for dark circles or spots?
Yes. Thanks to the 3-in-1 formula, Beyond Matte also works as a concealer. Apply a small amount directly to the area to be covered and blend gently for a seamless result without visible edges.
How long does the Beyond Matte Liquid Foundation last without touch-ups?
The formula is long-lasting and resistant to a full day of wear. For skin prone to extra shine, we recommend lightly touching up halfway through the day with a matte mineral powder for a fresh, matte finish.
