How Colors Affect Your Look
Advertisement
Believe it or not, people still judge you from the way you look. Therefore, wearing the right colors that complement with your skin tone, can make you glow and look fresher and brighter.
But when wearing the colors that do not complement your skin tone, can make you look tired, pale, unfriendly and dark shadows below your chin, your eye area and with the wrong color lipstick can also make your teeth look yellowish.
We will do a color analysis base on your skin tone, hair colors and eye colors. This will determine which colors suits you best. This concept are based from the all time classic coloring system by Carole Jackson , Color Me Beautiful.
Today we will figure out whether you have a warm or cool skin tone. whether you wear oyster white or pure white and which type of shades of red, green, blue that will look great on you.
This analysis have nothing to do with how fair or how dark you are. Nothing to do with your age and it has nothing to do with your size. It has got to do with your hair, your eye and skin tone colors.
Color Analysis
Color analysis breaks into 4 seasons ; Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Most of us fall into one of this season. And some of us lucky ones are able to carry 2 seasons.
