Heads up: Dia Light / Dia Richesse is a demi color and Illumina Color is permanent. Coverage, longevity and the final result will differ: adjust the service, not just the shade.

How to read the match: Exact = same level and same reflect · Close = same level, same reflect family · Approximate = same level in natural, or adjacent level with the same reflect. Hover each badge for that row's reason.

Of the 16 Dia Light / Dia Richesse shades, 13 exact and 3 approximate in this chart with Illumina Color. For example, Dia Light / Dia Richesse's 6 maps to Illumina Color's 6/. Natural reflects cross over best; golden ones need more adjustment.

Questions about Dia Light / Dia Richesse and Illumina Color

Common questions when converting between these brands

Of the 16 Dia Light / Dia Richesse shades, 13 have an exact equivalent in Illumina Color, 3 approximate. The level (1-10) is universal; what varies is the reflect.

No. Equivalences are approximate because each brand uses different pigments, bases, and concentrations. The level (1-10) is universal, but the reflect result may vary. We always recommend doing a strand test when switching brands.

It's not recommended. Each brand formulates its products with specific chemistry (pH, alkalizing agent, pigment system). Mixing brands can create unpredictable reactions and unwanted results. Always use color and developer from the same brand.

The tool shows you the closest available shade. If you need a very specific result, you can combine two shades from the target brand (for example, mixing a natural with an ash to get a soft ash). Blendsor calculates these mixes automatically.
