~ WHY SHOULD I SEND A SAMPLE?

Leave a reply

It’s a question we get all the time “Why should I send a sample if you already have it in your archives?”. There are several reasons! During the original run of any cosmetic product there can be slight variations from batch to batch when a shade is made over the course of several years and/or in different factories. Another big reason is where and when you purchased your signature shade. If the sample we have on file was from a client who typically purchased her shade in Paris each year and you usually purchased your shade in Tokyo – even though the name is the same – there is a chance that there could be a slight difference and we have no way of knowing exactly which country the sample was manufactured in or in what year. In addition, some of the larger companies bring back popular shades but tweak them slightly or they recycle names if a shade has been off the market for a few years. There are many factors but the above are the most common. It is always best for us to match what you have in hand and we guarantee the match with your sample.

We have been collecting discontinued lipsticks and other color cosmetics since 1993 to build our ARCHIVE. We have over 10,000 documented shades dating back to the 1920’s and have been matching color for over 20 years so, as you can imagine, we are pretty good at it!

If you have a sample of the shade you are looking for we always encourage you to send it to us. You can find out how to do it here: HOW TO SEND A SAMPLE It is always best for us to match what you have in hand and when we match from your sample we guarantee the match and will either adjust your shade or refund your purchase price.

If you don’t have a sample to send just search our ARCHIVE OF DISCONTINUED SHADES If you remember the shade name and not the brand just leave the BRAND field blank!
