Who it suits

Colour theory suggests NYX Ultraviolet works with cool and neutral undertones.

Its medium-deep depth sits most naturally on medium, tan and deep skin.

A gloss finish is shiny and often sheer, so Ultraviolet can read lighter and more translucent on the lips than its hex; payoff depends on the formula.
