I’ve just seen an advert for Boots No7 Match Made Lipstick Service and, seeing some of the mismatches, I decided to have a look online at their website offering the service.
In principle, matching your lipstick to your skintone is an extremely good move and, if you’ve had your foundation correctly matched previously, then you’re well on your way with this service. But….
- Your haircolour and eyetone are also important to identify the depth and vibrancy of lipstick colour that will enhance your features most
- Assessing your skintone accurately can be difficult under fluorescent light (and I don’t know if Boots have you remove your foundation to have the best chance to complete a true test)
So I have some doubts about the service, but even if Boots get it right with their Match Made Lipstick service, that only tells you about your lipstick, not your other make-up, or the colours of clothes that will show your features in the best way. And that’s what you get in a Colour Analysis Consultation with me.
Plus you get to spend a couple of hours of “me” time, with a cup of tea or coffee, a lovely view from my office window, going away with the knowledge and confidence of the right colours for you 😀
I'd love to hear your comments on this post
