Buying color over the internet, was never going to be easy as your PC/Printer are never going to produce identical results to ours or your neighbor's. The one thing you can count on with LIP INK lip color is that your own personal chemical make-up will have no impact on the color as it may have with your old fashioned lipsticks from the past.

Because LIP INKs are organic we find most of our clients are ladies who wish to look as natural as possible and you just want to enhance your natural lip color but you also want it to last all day!

More often than not we find that most of our new users will fall into one of two categories dictated by your eye color! Sounds simple doesnt it but this is a color that you are happy to live with all day and it seems your eye color dictates your skin tone on the whole. Although of course a good tan can make a world of difference and many of us wear a fake tan because of concerns about skin cancer.
Green or Brown Eyed
Sampler Kit Most popular with Nude and Venusian Flesh which allows you to find the best every day color between these two colors.

Blue or Grey Eyed
Sampler Kit next most popular which comes with Blush and Arcturian Pink Blush on its own might become too dark with the required 3 layers.
You can also send us a swatch of your favorite color on the middle of a tissue (in a poly bag for protection) for us to match up.
If you are a confident lady who loves to wear strong colors, then you probably do not have this dilemma. If you normally wear Red, Fuchsia, Cherry, Plum, Cognac or Hot Pink and more.
Above all we are here to give you guidance and we are committed to helping you as long as it takes to come up with that right color. It doesnt take long for you to recognize the benefit of LIP INKs guaranteed smear proof long lasting (using the right LIP INK Technique) lip product but it might take a little while longer to find that perfect everyday color!

Best results can be achieved by staying in the same Color Family. Use pink with pink, red with red and warm tones with warm tones. Warm Colors have yellow in them and Cool Colors have blue in them. If you favor green, yellow green, yellow, orange and orange red and your cool colors will be blue-green, blue, purple, violet and true red.

If your skin tone is more yellowish than pinkish, the "cool" side of the Color Wheel is recommended which includes the blues, purples, aqua blues, violet and maroons work best. If your skin has more pink, the "warm" side of the color wheel which includes colors like greens, yellows, peach and corals are recommended. There are always exceptions to the rule so be willing to experiment until you find the colors that make you glow..


Color Intensity (high-intensity) mid range and (low intensity) Orange-red is considered high, peach is considered mid to low range intensity. It is highly recommended that you determine the color value when making your decision of the right colors to wear. Color Intensity can be controlled with our patented LIP INK layering process. We recommend the use of three layers of LIP INK liquid Colors with each application. It is in this layering process that you have the control of intensity. You can apply just one layer of LIP INK color and use LIP INK Clear liquid lip color for the the remaining 2 layers of color and control the Color Intensity.


Color Values refer to how light or dark a color. Think of white to black and all the shades in between. Example, when we use our blotting process" by taking an applicator saturated with LIP INK color and blot it into a tissue to remove some of the liquid color" you can take a bright red to a light pink. This is how you adjust your color value with LIP INK liquid Colors.

Now that you understand color intensity and value, you are ready to select color tones.
First select your ideal Color Intensity and Color Value by holding the Color Wheel to your face.

If have dark hair with light skin you fit into High Contrast your colors would include the (bright and deeper value darks) These colors can be achieved using LIP INK Lemon lip color Toner.

Those with fair coloring fit into the Low Contrast and can wear softer and more muted colors This can be achieved using our LIP INK Unisex lip color toner.
