The Basics - Choosing Make-Up Colours to Suit.


With every New Season, new colours & make-up ranges are in abundance but how do you know what will suit you...??
Well there is one main thing to consider when working out what colours will suit, whether you have a 'Cool' Complexion or a 'Warm' Complexion.
Normally cool skin tones are quite pink, sometimes with a little redness through them, they also tend to go red/pink in the sun rather than brown. Warm skin tones will go brown in the sun & have a golden tint through them.
If you have a Cool Complexion some of the colours you should opt for are Plums, Rose & Pink Colours as well as Purples/Lilacs to Silver & Grey. For Warm Complexions opt for Dark to Light Browns, Bronze & Golds as well as Light Peach to Deep Reds.

Basically any warm colours will suit a Warm Complexion & cooler colours for a Cool Complexion, so take this into account before deciding on what to choose.
