One person's nude is another's bold, so we have a totally different approach to finding the perfect colors for you.
undertone comes first
When you want a nude lip or cheek you are looking for a RED. We know that sounds scary, but red is the color of your blood (therefore your flush). Here are some tricks you can use to 'cheat' your undertone, but we recommend a drape for color confidence in your order. Scroll to try to decipher first .
warm n' toasty
If your lips are almost purple-blue naturally, and colors frequently look magenta on you, Power 43 is your undertone. You'll likely think that reds go too pink on you. We recommend visiting us or doing a drape for color certainty.
If you sometimes feel they go too warm on you check out Power 41 for a more true red look.
french kiss
If your lips look more purple than warm skin, then you likely need a warmer lip. If colors sometimes go too orange or too magenta, then you need Power 28. Likely you like nudes, but can struggle with reds or deeper shades.
If you find that sometimes nudes or reds are too warm check out Power 25. If you think reds sometimes look too pink, try Power 41.
getting warmer
If you have a hint of purple to a naturally warm then you likely need the coolness of Power 14. These are often considered true reds or classic reds. Likely you aren't afraid of red, but you may hate how warm nudes often are (or too cool weirdly).
If you sometimes think red can go too warm check out Power 11, if you crave a bit more heat, Power 25.
cool red cutie
If your natural lips look extremely warm and reds or nudes seem to go orange on you, then you likely need a cool red. You'll most likely dislike red the most as you've never had one that looked quite right. Well we've got your color and it is Power 31. Order testers or a drape for color confidence. You may also be able to cheat to Power 11 for a bit more heat in your red.
undertone comes first
We recommend starting with finding your most natural RED first. PINK is more difficult to guess. The perfect pink undertone should look balanced. Not too purple, not too red. Check out the below guide to see if you can guess or click for confidence.
hot hot pink
Cool pinks will leave you looking bruised or purple. We say no to a dated look. You don't want your pinks to look red, so if they often do you'll need to go cooler than this group. If you're more worried about magenta purple though likely you are an Ambition 21.
barbie world
Life is fantastic in this undertone. This pink is pretty popular so you'll likely be pretty comfy in pink. If pink is hard for you because it goes red then you may want to go cooler. If pink is hard for you because it goes magenta then you might need to go warmer.
baby pink babe
The perfect balance of warm and cool is hard to get. Ambition 31 is a very recognizable pink, so if a lot of pinks go too red or orange on you, then likely you need this undertone. If these kind of pinks still look too warm on you go cooler.
cool cool cutie
You are the rare beauty who needs the coolest of the pinks to get the pink we all love. If you are constantly frustrated by orange or red looking pinks, then Ambition 11 is the answer to your pink dreams.
If you've read through all of these and still don't know, then we highly recommend a drape. Feel free to reach out with questions, but unless you've used elea blake colors before, we truly will be guessing as much as you.
