Pulp Riot to KEVIN.MURPHY

Converting a client's Pulp Riot formula into KEVIN.MURPHY? 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.

68Pulp Riot shades in The Shade Library

41have an exact KEVIN.MURPHY match: same depth, same reflects in the same order

27Pulp Riot shades have no exact KEVIN.MURPHY equivalent

Why a same-number chart is not enough

Pulp Riot and KEVIN.MURPHY levels line up, but their reflect structures don't always. Only 41 of 68 Pulp Riot shades have a KEVIN.MURPHY shade with the same depth and the same reflects in the same order. For the other 27, the nearest KEVIN.MURPHY 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.
