Quick Tips:

- Shades lighter than your skin tone help brighten areas and draw attention.
-Take in consideration your skin tone, if you are light, use the lighter versions of the correcting colors and vice versa.


Ready to master color correction? Here’s the rule of thumb: always base your correction on the color wheel.

Use the opposite color to neutralize what you’re seeing. Let’s hide those distractions!






Color Breakdown:

- Orange: Goddess, Papaya, Icon (for darker complexions)—conceals dark circles and hyperpigmentation with blue hues.

- Pink: Candlelit, Petal, Pink, Pink Grapefruit, Baby Watermelon—conceals dark/age spots, discoloration, and blemishes with olive hues; brightens dull skin.

- Red & Red Orange:  Scarlet, Saffron, Sandstone—conceals dark circles and hyperpigmentation on olive to blue hues.

- Peach: Frenchie, Amber, Mango—conceals dark circles, hyperpigmentation, and discoloration on blue-violet hues.

- Purple: Plum, Nude, Bare, Ballerina—neutralizes dull and sallow skin with yellow hues.

- Yellow: Sunlit, Wheat—neutralizes mild redness, conceals dark circles, and blemishes with violet hues.

- Green:  June, Sandy, Candlelit—neutralizes redness from rosacea, acne, blemishes, sunburns, and evens out skin tones with melasma, hyperpigmentation, or freckles.

- Blue: Aspen—neutralizes redness with orange hues.

 

Interesting Fact: When you see red skin on the surface, it’s often got a blue undertone underneath. That’s why using an orange-toned foundation works wonders to neutralize it. Think of it like this: orange and blue are opposites on the color wheel, so when you apply an orange tone over that bluish-red skin, it cancels out the color, leaving you with a more even, natural look. This trick is especially handy for covering redness from things like rosacea or irritation. Just a little bit of color science can make all the difference in your complexion!
