We’re currently experimenting with a color palette that works with the white skin tone, and it’s taking time. These images show some of the early attempts. Because the skin is slightly translucent, light passes through the surface, scatters, and reflects back out, which means the base skin tone strongly influences how colors appear. As a result, the same pigment can look very different once applied.
The white skin tone also exaggerates color perception - subtle hues become more noticeable, and neutral tones can shift unexpectedly. For example, the freckles you see on Legion are actually gray, but they appear brown once applied.
Next, we’ll be testing versions with less pink and without blushing, as blushing further alters surrounding colors through contrast and light interaction.
If you’d like to experiment as well, feel free to suggest colors using the attached photos :-)
