The Deeper Hues Thread (Swatches, Color Matching, etc.)

[ElleElleG]

*new group located here: Deeper Shades

Have a deeper hue and want to know how a product might look on your skin tone?  This is the place for you!

Several ladies expressed interest in having a BIC group dedicated to WOC.  Such a group would serve as a central reference point for swatches, color matching and the like, which can often be difficult to find.  While I have no idea whether such a group will ever be created I figured it would be nice to at least have a thread.

It should go without saying, but  **Ladies (and gents) of all hues are more than welcome **

I'll go back and add them. I can't stop taking about these brands!

[mermadelove]

Yes you can! You just can’t post links to nonsephora sites. 🙂

Did you ladies know that there is a brown sugar beauty box? I think it has clothes and bags.

[IndyQT317]

Hey @ KNC24. Yep, the ad always pop up on my Facebook Feed. I haven't subscribed though. It also has books and journals too. Are you subscribed? I missed the Essence Beauty Box.

[HazelEyedQueen]

Yes!! The Brown Sugar Box is everything! Each month, you get a box filled with surprises. They haven't done makeup but they definitely do lotions, oils, lip balm, clothing, books, purses, cups, jewelry... the list goes on. I get it every month and love it!February 18 BSB

I’m back from Jamaica 🇯🇲 ladies. I’ve been off the grind a little bit but I’m back. I’m glad to see this group thriving

[ElleElleG]

Welcome back @KNC24, hope you had a great trip!!

[KNC24]

@ElleElleG I had a great time. I’m sad cause I missed the makeup forever Master class for the second time. The reward dropped while I was in Jamaica.

I need to vent and this just seemed like the safest place to do it! I find it so annoying to receive samples that are not for use on my complexion nor that of even 2 shades around it!! Most recently I received (unsolicited 🙄) a sample of YSL Magic Wand that does in fact show on its attached postcard that the product line does include “deep shades” however not one of those shades was included with the samples even though 3 different shade samples were included!! Do our fairer complected sisters ever receive a sample that only include dark shades??? Doubt it. Okay, rant complete.

[sandykat79]

I actually have the same problem in the opposite direction. None of the complexion samples are ever light enough for my pale-as-milk skin. I think they try to include the best-selling or most common shades, and that excludes those of us at either end of the spectrum. It sucks.
