L'Oréal to Davines
Converting a client's L'Oréal formula into Davines? The Shade Library matches shades by verified depth and ordered reflects, not by the number printed on the tube. Here's how the two ranges line up.
165L'Oréal shades in The Shade Library
83have an exact Davines match: same depth, same reflects in the same order
82L'Oréal shades have no exact Davines equivalent
Why a same-number chart is not enough
L'Oréal and Davines levels line up, but their reflect structures don't always. Only 83 of 165 L'Oréal shades have a Davines shade with the same depth and the same reflects in the same order. For the other 82, the nearest Davines shade changes the result, and knowing that before you mix saves a correction.
Sample conversions
The straightforward ones: standard natural shades where both brands print the same level. Any chart gets these right.
