What is the difference between rouge theatre and ruby

[luvprada]

I've looked at some of the pictures on line but since haven't seen IRL, it is hard for me to tell. Is one more true red than the other? TIA!

Ruby is essentially a tad bit lighter than Rouge Theatre, it has more of a fruit punch red with blue purple/blue undertones.

Rouge Theatre is a straight dark red.. I can't really tell about the undertones.

Thank you very much!

RT has a blue undertone too - but it's a bit darker than ruby. Ruby is a like a slightly lighter RT to my eye.

RT definitely has more blue undertones and to me seems close to a cranberry color. I think Rubisse also has blue undertones, but less than RT and I would say that Rubisse is closer to red, then RT. But to my eye, neither is a pure red.

ruby has a kind of flourescent, pop, punch. with blue/cherry undertones. to me rt has both blue and orange tones in it. complex color usually with some variation. to me, ruby is very evenly colored. and rarely veiny.
