SHADE INTELLIGENCE

Grey or taupe?

Brown is not always the neutral answer. Compare undertone first, then decide how much warmth you actually want in the brow.

CHOOSE BY UNDERTONE AND HAIR CONTEXT — NOT BY AGE.

Grey brow shade example

Grey

COOL · MEDIUM

A cooler mineral-grey direction for brows that need less visible warmth. Useful when brown shades read too golden, red or orange against the overall hair and brow context.

COOLER READ · LOWER WARMTH
Taupe brow shade example

Taupe

NEUTRAL-WARM · MEDIUM

A softer brown-taupe direction when you still want some warmth in the brow without moving into a richer chocolate or auburn result.

MUTED BROWN · SOFTER WARMTH

SAME DEPTH. DIFFERENT READ.

Undertone changes the brow before depth does.

01

Start with your natural brow.

Look at the brow hairs you already have before matching only to the hair on your head.

02

Notice what turns too warm.

If brown repeatedly reads orange, red or golden on you, compare a cooler shade family rather than simply choosing a darker brown.

03

Check it in neutral light.

Shade names are not enough. Compare the finished brow in daylight or neutral light before deciding which undertone feels more balanced.

HAIR CONTEXT

Grey is a color choice, not an age label.

GREY

When less warmth is the point.

Consider Grey when the surrounding hair or brow context reads silver, grey, ash, cool brown or otherwise lower in warmth.

TAUPE

When muted brown still works.

Consider Taupe when you want a softer brown result with some warmth remaining, rather than a distinctly mineral-grey brow.
