Asked often

Questions that are hard to ask

Is this another guide that forgets deep skin?
Each guide has a page for deep skin, and for olive, tan, medium and fair.
What if I am between two seasons?
The free test says so, and names both. Each guide sets your season beside its neighbors.
Do I have to give up black?
No. In some seasons black needs care, and the guide says how to wear it.
Can I return it?
Instant downloads are not refundable. A wrong season swaps free within 30 days of buying.
Is it worth $29 when quizzes are free?
The test is enough to start. A guide is the plan, with codes and outfits.
