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

*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!

 

Image result for shades of brown

 

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 **

@howconnie @KNC24 This thing is always messing up tags! 😉

Cross post from Bite thread. Picked up Quince and violet from the Weekly Wow sale. Loved them so much I ordered a third. I’m wearing Quince.

Beautiful! I love these too! @mermadelove

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

@ElleElleG @sister13 I am totally in love with these! And to think if it wasn’t for the week

ymwow I would never have tried them! I got Zinfandel today and while inappropriately named, it is a simply gorgeous warm coral! I will swatch it tomorrow. 

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

Very pretty, thanks for sharing!

@howconnie new thread you may want to join

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

@ElleElleG Thanks for starting this thread. I have been thinking about this topic. Hourglass lipstick MUA used during my makeover looks totally different in swatches or Sephora virtual artist (even on the medium skin tone model) than it is on me (probably because how pigmented lips are) and I wouldn’t have picked it up myself. That is when I realized that color products also can look totally different on WoC and not just complexion products.

@naturalooks15 I’m also having the same problem. Even with some of my swatches don’t look the same on my faces.

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

Absolutely @naturalooks15 !  I completely understand!  The number of times I've purchased a lipstick thinking it'll look the way it does in the tube or someone lighter only to get home and it look like I ate a powdered donut because my lips are pigmented, beyond frustrating.

 

Hoping this thread will help reduce some of that.  Glad to have you here!!

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

This right here is a never-ending problem for me... thank you @ElleElleG for curating this thread. 

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

Sure thing!

Ohh this looks pretty @KNC24 ..... and I'm a wee bit distracted by that Godiva 👀👀👀

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

@ElleElleG Lol. I’m trying not to open it

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

Ha!  you're far better than I, if it's out in the open like that it would not last long in my household 😆 @KNC24
