01 Lips

Start with the lip.

Start with brick. Warm burgundy is the deeper step, deep terracotta the earthy one.

  • #8E2D1FBrickDeep and warm, the easy first pick.
  • #6C1D2AWarm burgundyA deep wine with warmth.
  • #AD5236Deep terracottaEarthy and deep, with an orange lean.

In the shade name, look for brick, burgundy, terracotta

Why, and how solid

Deep, warm color matches your deep, warm coloring. Pale pastels sit far from it and tend to read faint. Tradition

02 Cheeks

A cheek that reads like you.

Choose deep terracotta or burnt rose and check it by a window.

  • #AD5236Warm deep terracottaDeep, warm and earthy.
  • #A9594FBurnt roseA rosy brown with warmth.

In the shade name, look for warm deep terracotta, burnt rose

Why, and how solid

Blush shows your palette fastest. Deep, warm shades look like a flush, while a pale pastel can sit on top of deeper coloring. Tradition

03 Eyes

Eyes, from lid to lash line.

Wear bronze on the lid and dark olive to define. Copper adds warmth.

  • #8E6A3CBronzeWarm bronze, a rich daily shade.
  • #B5651DCopperCopper for a warm lift.
  • #4A4A25Dark oliveA dark green-brown for depth.

In the shade name, look for bronze, copper, dark olive

Why, and how solid

Deep, warm shades echo your palette, so your eyes read as part of one picture and not a separate decision. Tradition

04 Two lights

Same shade. Two lights.

A white base can turn a shade chalky. Swatch pale ones by a window first.

brick, #8E2D1F

Careful with milky, powdery, soft matte pastel

Why, and how solid

White pigment scatters light and adds a pale veil. On lighter skin that reads as a soft pearl, and on deep skin it can read as chalk. A pastel that goes ashy on you is often the formula and not you. Tradition

How to read the cards

The color on each card is the color family a pick sits closest to, not the exact product shade. A picture shows that color on a plain, unbranded piece and not the product. Save picks with Add to my list, then open them all in one Amazon cart.

09 Foundation

Foundation is different.

It follows your skin, not your season.

  1. Match depth first, then undertone words. On deep skin, scan the ingredients for black pigment.

    A deep shade made mostly with black pigment tends to read gray. Shade names change by brand, so test in daylight. Moderate

Deep Autumn makeup for everyday looks.

Each lip, blush and eye shade on your phone, with its name, to hold next to the tester.
