Choosing the palette of your wardrobe is a process as complex as finding the perfect life partner. And we are not exaggerating! It’s not enough to find colors that you like and combine well with each other, it’s also important to get exactly the palette that will “brighten” your skin, hair and eyes, will match the season and won’t “argue” with other shades. So there is more than enough room for error!
Therefore, it will be useful to remember clearly problematic shades – and bypass them. But you will see the beneficial effect of, say, friendly colors in practice. So watch out…
We know, we actively suggest adding a dark “chocolate” accent to your autumn or winter look – so what’s wrong with brown? It is not about him, but several of his undertones – umber and sienna. They have a slight admixture of green, which makes these shades “dirty”, swampy. With skillful styling, they can look great, but in everyday life it is better not to risk: plus 5-10 years!
The Pantone Color Institute calls this shade ‘garlic clove’ – but you could also call it ‘moss’. We are talking about a warm green color with a gray and orange undertone, which will additionally “dirty” the outfit. In addition, this color emphasizes the paleness of the skin, red spots and other imperfections – as well as sleepy, slightly reddened eyes.
One of the most popular and supposedly “expensive” shades can actually be doing you a disservice. The darker the color of the wine, the more it accentuates the bruises under the eyes and “whitens” the skin, casting a bluish glow on it. But if you choose a similar shade with a pink undertone, then the situation can be corrected: the main thing is to avoid unnecessary painful blue.
