      That's what I was taught in middle school. 3 primary colors, magenta, cyan and yellow, that you can mix among them and with black and white. I have always thought of red and green as a mix with different percentage of magenta and yellow, with a tiny cuantity of blue, for red, and a mix in different percentages of cyan and yellow with a tiny cuantity of magenta for green. So, using different percentages of colors I have realized that my particular mix of skin, eyes and hair colors is more flattered when I move over the section of color wheel with the lowest percentage of yellow. That makes the small cuantity of yellow in my skin stand out, match with my eyes (lots of yellow in them) and hair (ashy, ashy, ashy, but also with yellow in it), and look more balanced overall. At least is the way I finally reached to understand after years of auto-observation and reading and watching experts on that matter. In conclusion, to simplify it all for me, I focus in yellow, avoiding it on what I wear to enhance it on my skin and balance wit hair and eyes. Tricky, huh?

    I’m a cool toned, fair skinned, silver haired person of Irish descent and I’ve been WAITING for this video. My big takeaway is the warm accent genius idea. I have always worried in summer that cool pastel tones feel weak and too ultra feminine and I have to admit I’ve been a wee bit envious of my warm toned friends that can rock orange and sunny yellows. Adding an accent piece in the warm palette is the perfect solution! THANK YOU JUSTINE!!

    Yay! I love that you called me "cool people"! I have slight olive undertones and can wear some of those "border" and darkened hues (red purple, burgundy, mulberry, eggplant) pretty well, but if they start taking on their warmer utterances (maroon, tomato red) my skin immediately looks blotchy and my under eye area becomes very blue and looks hollow. Both dark and bright purple-pinks (fuchsia, raspberry, hot pink, magenta) make my eyes sparkle, not so with peachy-pinks, corals, or pale cherry blossom pinks. Green is flattering, too, as long as it's not dark olive, khaki, absinthe, or chartreuse. And most blues are complimentary (navy, cerulean, wedgwood, chambray, cyan, teal, indigo, cobalt) against the high contrast of my skin and hair/eyes, as long as they are not too pastel (light turquoise, lavender blue). I feel those drain the color in my skin and sort of "float" on my body, like they don't belong on me. I loved this video (and all of your other videos!) Thank you!

    Loved the video ! One trick I learned from a color consultant is that you don't have to wear only what suits you, you just have to control the place where the color touches your skin and wear what you like elsewhere. You can cheat !
    For instance, I am cool-toned, but I like and wear a lot of black. I just never let black be next to my skin. If I wear head-to-toe black, I make sure I have a cool scarf between the black top and my skin, so the transition is smooth and more harmonious. I also use blazers to the same effect; or color-block warm bottoms with cool tops (this is more tricky but also a lot of fun), especially in winter, where I wear gloves and closed-toe shoes.
    I happen to like the "pop effect" produced by mixing warm and cool tones; but it has to be done with caution and subtlety. Make-up and accessories are my (shy) best friends !

    It may help to mention the optical difference between a warmer hue vs a cooler hue of the same color. A warm hue protruded, advances opitically. Cool it down by mixing white into that color and it recedes from the eye. You can do this with any paint at home and put them next to each other and see the huge difference.
    One can use yellow or red and black or blue instead of white to mix into any solid color and again there's an immediate difference what comes out and at you, what recedes.
    It's how you create 3d effects in painting.
    It's unclear from your video, but a pink can be alot cooler than a green depending on the shade. But these things take a trained eye and color sense to understand perhaps, idk.

    Thanks for your videos. Love them! I am cool tone for sure. But plain red looks flattering on me. Why is this? All other warm colours don't... And all cool colours look great. Still, co fused about the red.

    I'm usually a warm undertone person but I do wear some of these colors too, especially in the greens. Maybe because I'm a red hair! I do use different intensity of the hue, and BTW thank you because I own a clear jeans and a light green shirt so I'm looking forward to trying the outfit you show at the beginning. 😊 Thank you for the info as always!

    I have discovered a new interest un purple. I used to dislike the colour until I realised recently that it actually suits me very well. Now I'm trying to find out which purple will flatter me the most. I'm still unsure about my undertone and think I could be neutral, leaning towards warm. We'll see.

    I love how simply you explain it. I’m cool winter and fuschia/magenta is my signature colour. I also wear deep garnet red. I prefer the pinks and purples over the the blues and green. I bought some clothes online recently that weren’t the colour I expected…. I’ll be adding a blue dye to balance the red and green to a more cool tone 😊

    Hi Justine! A wonderful and useful video as always! Things happen and plans change, but I would be so happy if you made that video about neutrals and which suite for warm and cool undertones resepctively. I think I already know a bit, as many of the lovely honey, caramel and camel tones don't quite work on my cool (but relatively neutral) undertone, and for instance taupe works much better. I love cosy browns, but could really use a guide. Also different greys would be good to know. Thanks so much for your channel!

  • @tokitobe2450
    @tokitobe2450 2 роки тому

    Thank you for this, Justine. Loved the explanation using color swatches. It's so important to know your undertone because often the colors we love are different from the ones that actually suit us. It took many years of wearing ill-suited warm hues for me to realize I was actually a cool/neutral, which I should have realized since my grandma kept giving me blue dresses even though I kept insisting my favorite colors were yellow and red.

    I've known for decades that I am a cool toned person or skin tone. I have always been attracted to blues and greens, and various hues of these shades. Or is it various shades of these hues? Anyway, this was a fun video on how to build a wardrobe based on whether a person's skin tone is cool or warm. Thanks for your fun and informative videos.

    I’m a neutral though told I’m warm, was classified as a deep winter. Gem tones-Purple, purple with red, dark magenta, and that blue green you use as an example are my “power colors” and look best on me. I’ve built a neutralish wardrobe around a couple of these colors but occasionally buy a warm piece (pink in my skin blends with reds and looks good, weirdly). When I got my report from my professional draping, I was enlightened to learn what you just taught-that a light warm color looks great as an accent, exactly like that lemon ice color you used in your palette. I’d never think of it on my own, but it does look great! You’re always so eloquent and elegant, Justine.

    I am a warm to neutral yet enjoy cool tone colors such as deep blues and greens. I love purples but would only use in an accessory.

I also used the video on what metals to match to my undertones when selecting my wedding band and that of my husband's. I go back and forth through your videos all the time. Your videos are timeless much like the video about timeless wardrobes😉 Many blessings to you as you continue to create and inspire us all❤

    I really enjoy your color videos. I am pretty sure I'm a cool/soft summer - I do look better in the greyed-out cool colors. But there are some reds (very few) that work well too - raspberry and cranberry in particular, which always surprises me. From the number of people who are confused about their "season" I'd guess a lot of people have exceptions. Someday I'd like to understand why this is, just in terms of the theory, but from a practical perspective your videos have completely transformed the color pallette of my wardrobe and I'm so happy with it! Thank you!!

    Such helpful tips here - I love this channel! I have also learned [from working with colour expert Jen Vax] that it is also really important to determine whether you suit bright, clear colours or soft, muted colours. If you are dark and cool, you might suit, for example, bright deep fuchsia, cobalt and dark, clear emerald vs soft raspberry, soft navy and soft deep green. Similarly for medium and light colouring. So interesting!

    This idea might help: I followed along with my color wheel. I just checked with Amazon and the wheel that I bought years ago is 5.5 inches (I'm American) and $10 (I'm still American) and it is still available. Some time ago, I looked into buying the color swatches which Justine uses. They don't fit my budget but the color wheel works great. Greetings to all and thanks to Justine.

      @Elspm 2 роки тому +5

      Unfortunately I think people use the term two ways: 1) a red with a blue hue, 2) red with no yellow (true red). However I think 100% "true" primary colours can be pretty difficult to avhieve with the pigments available for makeup, so usually you end up with blue red, even if it is relatively true.

    It would be interesting to see for cool colors the warm option and vice versa. Because when looking on red or brown - there are options that would complement cool people, and in the blue side - there are blues that don’t, and are too “warm”.
