    Color theory is easily the NUMBER ONE THING I wish I'd known about when I was younger! So many of the times I thought my skin or whole self didn't look good it was because the color and shade I was wearing was working against me. Color is simple to the eye, but a little complex to understand. I have simplified it, through my eyes in this video so you can shop and use this as a guide for purchases that bring you tons of confidence. Enjoy the video! #TheArtOfColor

    Hi, I'm Alexandra. I believe life can be both glorious, tricky and painful.. which we all know. Beauty is a practice I have enjoyed from early childhood as a way to build my confidence in myself. Not just on "special" occasions, but in my every day life and decision making. On my UA-cam channel I show you practical steps and psychology to understand and apply methods in all areas of beauty; inclding fashion, makeup, hairstyling and femininity, to help us evolve and transform into our personal visions. I believe when a girl feels good about herself, she can make better choices for herself in ALL areas of life. Welcome to my channel, I'm glad you found me!

      I actually tested some eyeshadows while watching videos and i would put over them white
      samo of them didn't look that great so I turned black white
      light blue was perfect match and while swaching it look the best
      pink was a little bit too light and that is why i thought it was off
      purple was too dark
      I am like 80% neutra l am a little bit warmer but I can wear and silver and gold and cool and warm colours so it really works
      try it I was impressed since with makeup I looked great but without it I didn't
      now I know why

    As an artist, I always love how she’s able to learn and educate herself on things like color theory and always be spot on. She does a wonderful job of dissecting how color theory affects the appearance of clothing on a person, allowing a person who came to video not knowing anything about color theory to have a decently strong grasp on the subject as a whole. It’s so refreshing to find someone who takes the time and effort to *properly* understand types of concepts, like color theory, which take experience and *time* to understand. It’s so admirable; I love you so much Alexandra

    I feel like some people in the comments are missing a key point: "ideal color" doesn't mean "the only color you can look good in". In fact, Alex expressly said that you can still look gorgeous in your least ideal shade! It's about optimization--color theory isn't a spectrum of "ugly to beauty" but "beautiful to more beautiful"

  • @rojanatarajan

    This video is amazing, but I'd like to add something regarding soft/clear styling for women who wear hijabs or headwraps in general. If you have trouble identifying if you are soft or clear because you don't show your hair, just know that you pretty much can choose (but still follow some ground rules!). If your hijab/tichel/headwrap contrasts with your skin, you can still apply the same rules that Alexandra mentioned and opt for more clear pieces. If you wear a neutral headpiece with less contrast, you might want to wear soft clothing. However, it is also important to ensure that the colors you choose coincide with your skin temperature wise, because fabrics so close to your face, the focal point of your body, can drastically enhance or muddle your features. Also, keep your eye/eyebrow colors in mind when choosing.
    I have neutral-warm medium-to-dark skin, close to Jackie Aina's complexion, and I also have dark eyebrows and eyes. If I were to show my hair, I would have a soft complexion. I carry out this philosophy when choosing headscarves by wearing dark brown or warm colored hijabs. However, I can pull off clear-colored clothing if I wear a black hijab for example, but just make sure that the rest of your outfit is consistent with this and still compliments your undertone. These tips still can work for you!!

    This honestly makes so much sense to me because I remember wondering why I don’t suit royal blue tops and it’s because I’m light, warm and soft and that same blue is a bit darker, cool toned, and bright/true which would come off better on people who have a clear complex, and I see why I feel more confident in neutralized colours

    I learned this info a few years ago and it's so good to hear it again. Soft/Clear was explained to me in the terms
    muted/high contrast. Colors are important but matching your contrast is more so for me. I'm muted or soft and if I look in the mirror and see the clothes before my features, I know that they are too high contrast for me. Color, for me is secondary because I can wear most colors as I have neutral light skin and almost neutral blond hair. I'm 57 and as a person gets older especially, you want to see the person first and not the clothes. Clothes should compliment the person not the other way around. Which is why you should wear make up that compliments you and not to match your clothes.
    Thanks for this video. People should go through their closets and watch it again and again.

    I feel like you're a big sister and it's really, really healthy for me to listen to your advice.
    I am a trauma survivor and thus never experienced true womanhood. I hid in my clothes, because I was full of deeply rooted shame and self-hate. I took what was convenient and cheap, since I never thought I'd deserve otherwise. I never bothered to look at shape or colour, because I was convinced I wasn't capable of anything, including finding things that flattered me.
    My point is - you are having an even greater impact than you think. Thank you so much for empowering and inspiring us! You are a wonderful human being.

      (fire engine red, canary yellow) and have a hard time distinguishing or describing the color it is most likely a soft color. I hope this helps you :)

    Also a tip from the mom (which follows Alexandra's lines): if you have a light complexion, wear mascara when wearing true black.
    Otherwise there is no 'blackness' in your face to match it with and it washes you out

    I think that when you're wearing your best colors you look as if the clothes are a part of you, not blending in but it's like they came with you and were designed just for you just like your hair and eye color. of course there's value in looking the opposite way but I love seeing that effect 🥰
