A cosmetic foundation composition is provided comprising greater than or equal to 6% by weightnof the cosmetic foundation composition of metal oxide particles and having a ΔL T value greaternthan or equal to 0.5, preferably greater than or equal to 1.5, more preferably greater than or equalnto 2.5, where ΔL T is measured according to the following equation:n ΔL T = ΔL 2 - ΔL 1 n Where:n ΔL 1 = L 1 110 - L 1 15 ; n ΔL 2 = L 2 110 - L 2 15 n L 1 is a measurement of L y taken on bare skin, to which no product has been applied; L 2 is a measurement of L y taken on skin, to which product has been applied; and L y is the luminosity value at a specific angle, y, from specular. |
