The Brow Combo You Need

When it comes to lips, control is everything.

Undertones. Saturation. Value. Healed results.

If you want predictable outcomes, you need a system that works every time.That’s exactly why Perma Blend LUXE × Carla Ricciardone created Embody and Enhance: two sets designed to work together for balanced, beautiful, and customizable lip results.

One corrects. One creates. Together? They transform.

Step One: Embody

Neutralize. Balance. Build the base.

Embody is your correction and foundation powerhouse. It’s designed to address underlying lip tones before you move into creating the perfect lip.

If you’re working on cool, dark, or uneven lips, this is where the magic starts.

Base Series (Core Correctors)
These are your undertone secret weapons:
Base 1 – A sharp yellow for strong cool-tone neutralization.
Base 2 – Neutral orange to balance deeper pigmentation.
Base 3 – Reddish-orange to warm and even cool-toned lips.
Base 4 – A blended warm/cool red for tailored correction.

Each shade is designed to help you create a predictable foundation before visible color is applied.

Modifiers (Value Refinement)
These help you fine-tune lightness without drastically shifting hue:

Mod 1 – Pale yellow to lift value subtly.
Mod 2 – A beachy tan to warm or lighten without overpowering.
Mod 3 – Pale pink to soften and brighten neutralized blends.

Adjust (Opacity Control)
LUXE Adjust – A clear-based solution that dilutes and softens pigments for lighter, blush-style effects.

When to use Embody:
Start here when neutralization is needed. Balance the undertone first, then move into Enhance for final color payoff.

Step Two: Enhance

Build the final healed shade.

Once the foundation is balanced, or when working on naturally even lips, Enhance is where creativity comes in.

This set is designed to build the final visible result, whether that’s soft blush or bold saturation.

Core Color Pigments
Gin – Vibrant coral with warm/neutral energy.
Lala – Cool/neutral berry red for depth.
Popi – A classic vivid red with bold impact.
Joy – Soft rose-red for wearable elegance.
Marlo – Cool blush pink for natural lip enhancement.
Glam – Warm pink that brightens and lifts.

These shades can stand alone or be layered and customized.

Depth & Shade Control
Haze – A mocha-toned modifier to lower value, add earthiness, assist in camouflage, or support reverse neutralization.

Adjust (Blush Effects)
LUXE Adjust – Soften, sheer out, or dilute for a barely-there finish.

When to use Enhance:
Select one or more shades to build your final healed color, refining warmth, depth, and saturation with Haze and Adjust.

Why They’re Stronger Together

Embody prepares the canvas.Enhance perfects the finish.

Using both sets gives you:

- More control over undertone correction
- Better predictability in healed results
- Adjustable opacity and saturation
- Greater flexibility across diverse lip tones
