How to determine if a color is right for you: stylist's tips
When choosing clothes, pay attention not only to the style and size but also to the color. Sometimes you like a certain color, but it doesn't suit you at all, while another color makes your skin glow and your eyes bright. UaPortal has figured out how to determine your color type so that in the future you can choose only those things that suit you. Stylist Olena Shevchenko told us how to choose the right color on her Instagram page.
How to determine if a color suits you
The stylist advises checking the compatibility of the color with your face.
"Bring this thing to your chin and see how your skin reacts. If the age spots have intensified, if the bruises under your eyes have increased, if the corners of your lips have sunk in, and wrinkles have become stronger, then this color definitely does not suit you," the expert explains. But if, on the contrary, the skin is "lit up" and seems to have tightened, then this color is definitely right for you.
How to make your look complete
The stylist emphasizes that jewelry plays a very important role in creating a perfect look. You should choose accessories depending on the event and time of day, as well as your hairstyle.
"If your hair is done up, choose earrings, if you have a deep open neckline, take a chain. And if you have both tied-up hair and a deep neckline, then choose a piece of jewelry to your liking," the stylist advises.
