Too Faced Born This Way Undetectable Medium-to-Full Coverage Foundation Vanilla is a medium, neutral-toned shade that sits in a well-populated part of the colour space. 11 other foundation lines carry something measurably close, and the nearest — Fenty Beauty Pro Filt'r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation 220 — is within ΔE 0.4, which is close enough that most people would not see the difference on skin.

Across the 14 lines that carry something close, the measured distance runs from ΔE 0.4 (Fenty Beauty) out to ΔE 6.9 (NYX Professional Makeup). 5 of them hold the same neutral undertone; the rest shift, which matters more than a small difference in depth. 11 land in the good band or better. Note that the closest shade by distance, Fenty Beauty 220, is warm rather than neutral — if undertone matters more to you than depth, Rare Beauty 290N at ΔE 1.2 is the better pick.
