Rouge Color

Rouge is a color that has the warmth of ruby red and the subtleness of amaranth. It is a color that is popular in the cosmetics industry because it has a youthfulness and healthy glow in its hue. Rouge has a slightly dusky look that makes it feel less harsh and brighter than other pinks like rose and hot pink, but it is also a little more saturated than dusty pink.

How the color is made: Mix very pale magenta with very dark red to create the dewy rosiness of rouge.

History: Historically, Rouge has been a color associated with youth and vigor. In Renaissance paintings, the artists used touches of Rouge on the cheeks and brows of their subjects to communicate their innocence, acquiescence, and vitality.

Color in Action

Rouge is often used in blush products that makeup artists apply to the apples of the cheeks to give the face dimension and a healthy flush. People who have pale complexions that they want to liven up can use Rough powders and mouses on areas of the face and neck to add contour and color.
Use Rouge in a room that feels cold and that needs a little more of a homely feel. Rouge’s warm hue makes it well-suited to be used in babies' rooms because it feels nurturing and calming.
