Understanding the Color Wheel
How Color Theory Influences Makeup Choices
-
Crafting Dynamic Makeup Looks: While not every makeup look requires color theory, it can add that extra oomph to your style. By strategically selecting colors, you can create contrast and balance that take your makeup to the next level. Imagine making your eye color stand out, defining your cheekbones, and choosing lip shades that make a statement. Color theory helps you achieve all that effortlessly.
-
Discovering Your Undertones: Ever struggled to find the perfect foundation or concealer shade? Color theory has your back. Understanding undertones – warm (golden/yellow) and cool (pink/blue or red/purple) – becomes a breeze. Try different shades and watch as they seamlessly blend with your skin, revealing your ideal undertone match.
-
Mastering Color Correction: Say goodbye to unwanted blemishes with the magic of color correction. The color wheel plays a crucial role here. For instance, if you have blue undertones in dark circles, you can neutralize them with shades of orange, soft pinks, and peaches. It's like your personal color-correcting wizard!
