Winter is a beauty type full of contrast, expressiveness, and elegance. Discover pure, intense colors, makeup, and styles that bring out its coolness and freshness.
Winter – cool elegance and expressiveness
Winter is the most spectacular of all color types – its strength lies in its clear contrast and cool palette.
- Complexion: porcelain, cool beige or olive – always with a distinctly cool undertone.
- Eyes: blue, emerald, hazel, dark brown or black – intense and eye-catching.
- Hair: usually dark brown or black, often with a cool, ash-gray tint.
Your beauty shines best in pure, intense, and cool shades. Blurry pastels or warm colors can make your freshness and energy fade into the background.
Your colors – pure, intense, contrasting
You look best in:
- bases: pure white, deep black, gray, graphite,
- accents: cobalt, navy blue, fuchsia, raspberry red, bottle green.
Avoid: warm beiges, oranges, olives and muted browns – they can take away the freshness and expressiveness of your beauty.
