the prisme libre colour theory

The story of an icon... In 1989, Hubert de Givenchy reinterpreted the House's historic 4G logo to create a unique powder combining four shades. Le Prisme, the House's first signature 4-colour powder, was inspired by the science of colour correction.

Reinventing this initial creation, the Prisme Libre 4-Color Loose Powder incorporates advanced technology and color expertise. This airy loose powder combines four colours, with two correcting and two illuminating shades, to recreate the radiance of natural light on the skin

Colour theory: The foundation of harmony

To fully appreciate the importance of colour correction, it's essential to delve into colour theory.

For centuries, artists and scientists have explored the subtleties of light and colour, uncovering the complex interactions that influence our visual perception.

Through extensive research, we have incorporated knowledge of cosmetic materials related to colour and light into our product development to create innovative formulas and impeccable shades.

The fundamentals of colorimetry: The colour wheel / the chromatic circle

Colour correction is based on the principle of using complementary colours. By employing specific pigments, we can neutralise and balance the skin's colour imperfections.

Chromatic cercle Givenchy makeup

For instance, green neutralises redness, peach corrects bluish dark circles, orange/salmon tones down dark areas, yellow reduces violet or blue undertones, and violet and blue brighten dull or yellowish complexions.

Each colour has its own function and subtlety, allowing for precise personalisation of correction to meet individual needs.

Unsure? Refer to the colour wheel and choose a corrector opposite to the colour of the area you wish to correct or balance.
