COLORIMETRY: WHAT IT IS AND HOW TO USE IT

Dear ladybird, today I'm going to tell you about a really fun topic: color theory . It's a trend that's gone viral on social media, for example, on TikTok. Have you ever thought that gold or silver accessories did n't suit you ? Or , for example, have you seen a garment that you loved but it didn't quite flatter you? There's an explanation for all of this. Keep reading to find out.

WHAT IS COLORIMETRY?

Colorimetry is the science that studies the concentration levels of color . It might seem complicated, but if you know how to apply it to fashion , you'll see it's worthwhile. As you probably know, there are two color palettes : cool and warm colors , and you've likely noticed which one suits you best. The same applies to accessories . Lately, we've been seeing many videos on social media of stylists placing a gold scarf and a silver scarf over a person's face. If the gold looks better , warm colors will suit them better, and if the silver looks better , cool colors will suit them better . But don't worry, you don't need to go to a stylist to see which shade suits you best. We suggest you stand in front of a window, in natural light, without makeup, and pick up a pair of gold earrings and a pair of silver earrings to see which looks best on you. We'd love to read your comments. If we delve into the wonderful world of colorimetry , we find great professionals who also explain that each person is like a season and, therefore, a specific color palette suits them best . Intrigued? You already know there are four seasons, and each person has features that place them within one of them, so certain shades will suit them better depending on this factor.

PEOPLE COLORIMETRY SPRING

For example, people born under the sign of spring often have soft features with warm, pink , and golden skin tones . They are also characterized by having light blue , light green , or hazel eyes . And their hair is usually bright blonde or brown with golden highlights . Do you identify with this? Bright, vibrant , and warm colors like peach , lime green , and turquoise suit these people well , as do neutral tones like beige , ivory , and pearl gray . For example, the Pinot Asymmetrical Dress would be a perfect example of colors that look ideal on people born under the sign of spring . What do you think?
