Hi Kackie- In the last year, I have rediscovered makeup with the help of my teenage daughter. She introduced me to beauty RU-vid and I now love learning tips and tricks to deal with the wisdom that has appeared on my face. I was listening to this video while doing laundry and had an epiphany. I immediately started playing with relatively warm and cool tone eyeshadows to create depth on my hooded eyes. Sharing your knowledge of color was a game changer for me. I can’t wait to get some warm and cool tone concealers to see if I can disguise the bags under my eyes. On another note, I’ve heard you mention some of the annoying short form content that is out there. I love having you and others keep me company while doing my mundane daily tasks. I learn so much from the long form videos…and they give me some good laughs too. Thank you and keep making them..I will keep watching.
lol I wanted to buy a cool pink blush once (bc I already had multiple other warm tone pink blushes).... And the sales assistant refused to give me the cool tone pink because I'm warm tone?! I just love to play with color, it was so dumb
Nobody puts Kackie in a box .I absolutely love when you do videos that are so informative like this opening up the world of color theory another great video 😊
Same!! One of my artist friends who still does makeup but doesn't enjoy beauty YT anymore loved the contrast video I sent her. It appealed EXACTLY to her sensibilities & I'm excited to see how she likes this one! This is exactly my shit.
Thank you for doing this bc I’m soooo sick of hearing “you need to wear cool tones to bring out your blah blah blah, etc…” bc as a neutral it confuses the hellll out of me! I love your color theory lessons. ❤
Neutral here, too - complexion products are easier because I can see when something is too bright, too saturated, etc. But as far as colour cosmetics? I've just had to experiment. My lifelong strat: Put something on that I enjoy the shade of, determine if it throws off the balance of my face in a way that is distinctly not appealing or editorial, knock some off the list, then try shades I'm not drawn to & find they almost exclusively look like trash as I expected, lmao. Warm tones are the most confusing - I can wear a warm red or coral but copper or warm brown makes me look jaundiced.
@@ZijnShayatanica the only thing I’ve nailed down is that I absolutely cannot do a bold lip. I have tried a million times and I 100% look like I’m playing in my mother’s makeup every single time. Anything beyond a sheer tint is so unflattering.
@@jodieguess3002 Oh man, same for the most part! I can do a black lip every so often, but I think mine is just w/ the size & shape of my lips pulling all attention away from my other features & making them look smaller. 🥲
Omg. I grew up as a tomboy, outdoor girlie. Now that I'm in my mid-30s, I have been watching your videos for about a year trying to get makeup/color theory, and the topography reference finally made everything click! Using the cool tones in the valleys (eye crease, cheek indention, chin) and warmth in the mid ranges (eyelids, cheeks, lips) and highlight in the mountain peaks (brow bone, cupid's bow, cheek bone) defines the landscape!!! Thank you!!! Gahhhh!! 🤯 Who doesn't want to look like a beautiful mountain side?
"Finishing the chord progression even if you can't hear the notes" GIRL! poetry!!!! Im loving these theory videos! I kind of already knew that color is relative, but hearing it spelled out is so helpful. Also that if a color doesn't seem to work on my face it's because i need to pair it with other things thatll bridge the gap between it and the colors native to my face. I'm going to have to experiment with this. I have the Mini Glam and I almost never wear it because, while it's neutral on other people, on me it pulls quite swampy olive green. I'll have to try pairing it with products that make that olive tone more at home on my features.
Please keep being my makeup art teacher! The contrast video was so helpful because it helped me understand why sometimes I finish my makeup and then get up and look at a far away mirror and suddenly feel like all my makeup disappeared off my face. As I'm learning to understand and see color better, this concept of layering tones to bridge the gap is becoming increasingly helpful.
❤Art Math… too bad my family 🙄and the guys who work in the paint store 🙄…are not as interested in my color theory, and how different light exposures affect color, why that beautiful apricot swatch turns green in an east facing room🤷♀️👩🎨🎨.
So valuable! Thank you. I liked how you emphasized “coolness” and “warmth” is relative to yours and everyone’s own skin tone. Opens the world of makeup for everyone.
I’m a high school art teacher who teaches color theory using the primary colors in warm and cool with black and white that’s it and I teach them to create 99 flesh tones!!!!! I just found your channel and love it!!!! ❤🎉
Fellow art student/MUA of times of yorn. Long ago yorn! As a direct result, I most definitely know about color temperature. This drove some on a certain, and quite possibly the most famous, beauty blog absolutely BONKERS when in the comment section I would refer to, IDK, "warm blue, purple or silver" and "cool orange, yellow or gold". Yet, color temperature DOES exist! So, apparently, I am not off my rocker or color blind. As far as what I wear? Anything I please. My skin's undertone is cool neutral with olive overtones and lighter end of true (not 20 years ago notion of) medium. The one thing that I have noticed is that when I go too far in either temperature, especially cold blues, silvers (eyeshadows) or very yellow-orange or yellow-brown (lipstick, bronzer), I look unwell. Your video felt very validating, super informative and explained it extremely well to any who may not get it.
Olive girly here. My skin tone is adamantly warm but I look best in cooler tones. Cool grayish contours become rosy blushes on me. Red based warm browns are my bedroom eyes. And just checking in that yes Glossier Swept is what I needed, a green bronzer that turns into a pink blush on my stupid face.
OLIVE SKIN IS VOODOO lol if you'll pardon any implications of coopting that term. Olive skin alchemizes colors. You are SUCH a good example of how it's just not. that. simple!
considering that more people in the world likely have olive undertones than don't (eg if we don't just use folks with Western European ancestry as the template) it's kind of amazing that makeup hasn't caught up to this.
LOVING this color theory series. Both very helpful, and somehow just make me feel less crazy. I'm slightly warm toned but you can tear my mauve and lilac blush/lip products out of my cold, dead hands. The terracotta shades people keep trying to sell me end up looking too orange. They can look amazing, but it takes way more work. The cooler shades kind of combine with my skin to look just healthy and fresh with basically zero effort.
Not wanting to turn your world upside down... but have you considered that you might actually be slightly olive toned? 😬 I thought for most of my life that I was slightly warm / golden, but mauves, purples and berries always looked amazing on me and I was sort of confused by it (Terracotta always pulled super orange on me, too). This past year I figured out that I actually am fair / light olive toned and everything makes so much more sense!
You’re not warm toned if lilac suits you effortlessly! You’re probably olive, which is actually cool but can take some warmth (cool undertone + yellow overtone).
Nope. Definitely warm, lots of red and yellow, but muted. It kind of mixes with my coloring to make a neutral pink. Cool colors in clothing or anything opaque are much more challenging.
@@carinawulff1673 Ok, literally been thinking about this for over a week. And maybe? I have a ton of red in my overtone, so just coming to terms with the fact that I actually have a warm undertone was a huge step. But I might in fact just be ruddy olive? Ruddy olive sounds horrible (or like a great band name), lol, but definitely something to think about.
Love your science of color videos! (I recall standing in my office looking at a "creative solution" from the design team and asking, "Do they know NOTHING about color?!")
I just turned 60 and just found you through RU-vid recommendations. This is the second video I have watched. I have always been a “cool girl” - but attracted to warm colors and felt like I just can’t wear them. I am going to try this on my daughter first (a “warm girl”) because I think I will be less judgmental on someone else. PS… YOUR SMILE IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND ENDEARING.
Love this concept! I have a medium deep complexion and have been told for years that I have a warm undertone but most foundations lately have been looking orange on me. When I opt for cool, neutral or even olive they tend to look more skin native. Navigating makeup with this new found knowledge has been challenging since every brand’s idea is what is “neutral” or “olive” or “warm” can differ. I wish brands would just say this is a deep shade with a yellow or pink undertone to make it easier to color match. In the winter I tend to look more gray so I lean into that look more with the makeup and choose purples, mauves, and taupes which look fantastic on me. Thanks Kackie!
I rarely wear makeup because I don’t really know how and it feels wrong when I do, but I have to say I so enjoy your videos. Your enthusiasm is infectious and your knowledge is riveting!
as a pale cool olive who's now 45 years old, very dark hair and eyes, there are very few things i can actually wear anymore without looking washed out or clown-like. i agree for the most part that anyone can wear whatever they want, and ultimately it's up the wearer on how they feel about how they look. for me personally, i don't want to look like a cadaver or a clown, so i'm exploring the small range of things that actually just make me glow. extremely hard to find, but i do enjoy a challenge.
The chaos that is Kackie combined with the superb knowledge that is also Kackie is what I need! The video on high/low contrast and this one were saved before I watched them! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and teaching us to step our makeup game. I know that I’ve learned so much from you, so thank you! 💕
Queen of art math strikes again! ❤ this was perfect Kackie. I hate how prescriptive some advice is. You’re always such a fabulous and down to earth art educator.
Sometimes mixing temperatures can result in such beautiful color harmonies. One of my favorite things to do is a coral almost monochrome makeup, and then switch it up in the lips by using a bright-ish mauve!
I found this very interesting - intellectually stimulating alongside being aesthetically pleasing. The contrast theory was absolutely brilliant - I have discovered my most favourable look - low contrast it is for me! 💕💕💕
Being a cool skin tone.....I LOVE warm colors for my eye makeup. Opposite my blue eyes, an orange/brown/rust makes my eyes so much more attractive. I believe it is all trial and error and when you look in the mirror and go..."I look healthy and glowy today", THEN you know you are on the right track to colors that work for YOU!! This channel has been helping me discover this recently with the tips and tricks with Kackie's blush trick.
I'm getting my personal color analysis done soon, and I'm excited 😆I love that you're emphasizing it's about what you want to wear. I think learning my color will help with finding what flatters versus what might not look as good. That being said, I'll never give up purple cause it's my favorite color 🤣
This is such a fun throwback for me, because you did a video back during clean routine 2019 (I think it was around that time) demonstrating a warm toned side and a cool toned look on your face and it taught me SO MUCH! That video has lived in my brain rent free since then, and I refer back to it all the time! I think the point you were making back then was that although you could wear both, you preferred the warm toned look. Baby Kackie❤
OK, I'm probably the only 83-year old artist and RU-vidr watching your video. I love the way you make any color work for you. My only complaint is that I had a tough time trying to figure out the names of your products. I looked at your list but still had to be a detective figuring out who made Georgia. Interesting as an artist I never consciously thought is it warm or cool it was did it work. Same with makeup now. I hate the way yellow toned makeup looks on my face. Never could figure out i my veins were blue or green they just were something. But I instinctively lean towards cool. Anyway, you're lots of fun.
I love this video so much ❤ whats crazy is that, as someone who doesn't really play with makeup but watches so much makeup content on youtube, everything you said makes so much sense and I never really thought about it! Thank you so much ❤ also, new sub!
This is a really awesome video. I love beauty space content creators taking on these broader issues. In my opinion, videos like this and also ones like Kelly Gooch’s Makeup Musings, for example, are a great addition to the beauty space. Personally, I find makeup videos fascinating not just for product reviews, but for artistic, series psychological, even sociological reasons. Keep the videos coming!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Omg! This is the first time watching a video of yours. I noticed in the beginning that you used the colors originating from CMY color wheel!!! I really love seeing this talked about in the beauty space every chance possible. The beauty industry seems behind when it comes color theory. Please keep talking about it wherever you can!
Thank God i came across this video. I cant begin to tell you how stressful shopping for makeup has been for a person with OCD. Makeup is supposed to be fun, not stressful.
So I agree you can wear whatever colors you want! But I have a warm undertone. The Natasha Denona “I need a Nude” palette is gorgeous but more cool toned. It does make me look kinda dead. Vs the golden palette makes me look more alive. Orangey peach blush looks like a neutral on me. Purpley pink blush definitely stands out more and doesn’t look as natural. Just depends on what you are going for! Side note, makeup is a good way to tell if you are warm or cool. If neutral makeup (eyeshadow, blush, lipstick) tends to turn purple on you, you’re probably warm. If it turns orange on you, you’re probably cool.
Yesss. It was through makeup that I finally understood just how cool toned I am! I knew gold jewelry made me look ill, but makeup…practically all makeup looks bright orange on me, lol.
As someone thats been putting myself in boxes with makeup, THANK YOU for this video. As long as colors dont make me look sick (Im pretty fair) or not match my whole look, I'll try it
Being a blush ho I bounce between cool one day and warm the next. Most times I try to complement my shirt color. Coral shirt, coral blush, warm eyeshadow. Pink top, berry blush, cool eyeshadow. I also like a bright Barbie pink blush when I wear a true red top. I have no rules though. I wear what I like. I’m 61, a stage 4 cancer survivor and have earned the right. 😉 Love your work. You color outside the lines and it inspires me.
These are good points. I love pinks and I have pinkish pale skin, but I dislike how pink makeup extenuates my redness if I don't properly control it through skincare or foundation. I love peach and orange eyeshadow, I'm glad someone didn't tell me to never wear orange anything and that I'm a whatever season bc I've been able to find shades of peach, orange, and gold that brightens my blue eyes without the fabled "unfitting color" effect I'm always being warned about
6:29 omfg that's exactly the same thing we do to put in shadows when drawing with colors: to shade something it's (generally) safer to go pick the color you want a shadow from (much easier in digital art) make it a bit dark and a bit more purple, you'll usually get a more natural looking shadow thana if you use black and white (black will look like soot or dust or mud in that instance and white will make it look washed out,flat and stale) playing with the colors can create different moods but generally take the color, make it a bit darker , a bit cooler and maybe a bit less saturated will prove much more Pleasing to the eye. On the other side when adding highlights and light sources, it's better to make the color more bright and vivid, a bit warmer and maybe a tinge lighter
I’m loving these videos and learning a lot, but I feel like you need a series called makeup color theory for dummies! Im over here rewinding and re-watching over & over 😂
Omg thank you!!! I have always thought it so strange when someone uses cool colors for eyeshadow (such as cool purples) and then applies a warm coral lip color. Just looks so OFF to me!
My eye color changed and that has totally made it necessary to rethink the colors I use and how things look on me I love seeing something that reinforces my thought that as long as it suits you it’s fair game in terms of colors being cool or warm
Again a wonderful helpful video. If this becomes a series of its own i am so in to it. Not that i am not enjoying the hell out of kackies reviews or taped tapes but who gona resist such nice makeup theory quality content? If i can watch 2h zelda theory fan videos, you better believe i am so here for Kackie makeup theory 😅
Omgosh. Thank goodness we have you and we don't have to rely on some random TT 20-something putting us in a box and closing the lid! I was an art student many, many years ago and it took me way too long to understand everything I learned absolutely does apply to the face. I'm cool-toned, but if I wore blue and gray on my eyes I would become the color of various shades of mud. I have to use reds and pinks on my eyes if I want people to know I even have eyes. Contrast and depth are both so important!
It suddenly clicked when you demonstrated the eyes and how the colors were RELATIVELY cool or warm in relation to each other. By George I think I got it!
I am a makeup newbie at 24...I am just quite recently starting my makeup journey as I am finally free from my skin condition (acne) and learning how to work with my rosacea. And I've been SO confused, lol. My concealer is a cool blue vs my skin, and thanks to your video, I think I might need a warm blue concealer vs my skin, cause when my rosacea flares up, is more of a pale pink vs intense red. New subscriber, cause I also don't like the discourse of having to do THIS or THAT and OPTIONS is a beautiful thing. You are quite funny too, so totally had to subscribe.
FOR ME, the only thing I hate on myself are nude nude (like very very light) lips. I think it just washes me out. I can wear warm reds and cool reds and even black looks more natural on me than light lips
I remember someone mentioned years ago that under tones don't matter because your face will change to whatever you ends up using. The foundation will add the tone so you can use golden undertone if you want to go a little bronze etc.
It would be awesome to see you do relative warm tones on a super cool toned person and vice versa. I think everything you said it completely true, but I also think your skin makes color "borrowing" much easier. Your features even help in that regard too. I think this topic is really worth a series, because people who don't understand color theory super deeply might still need a little more guidance in the form of examples. I've been painting portraits for years and am equally as jazzed about color theory but I have realized that it is complicated to grasp if you aren't really immersed. There's so much advice on the internet these days but you seem uniquely equipped to bring good quality info to the people! I think more examples will really help folks out. I agree that formulaic advice is super limiting, but for people who don't care about color and just want to look good, I can see why they would go for the formulaic advice when color can be such a vast, deep topic.
I think matching undertones might be flattering when you’re Young ! I have cool undertones but the older i get i need to go neutral or even slightly peachy in my base products, otherwise i look like a stone! When it comes to the temperature in my blushes or eyeshadows - for as long as you keep the value level in check ( look at a natural contrast of your face) you cannot go wrong really - whether you feel Coral or pink, blue or green 😊
Killing it with these videos. I love watching these types of videos from you. More colour theory I say! I also find it helpful as we are skin twins, but I have higher contrast so last week’s video was awesome!
I think people do oversimplify the "cool vs warm" colors in regards to makeup (and fashion) but I still think there's some truth to that some shades just harmonize better with others. But you're right that they don't have to be cool+cool or warm+warm. I'm also a neutral and I love mixing and matching cool tones with warm tones to bring out my neutral undertones that way. For example my signature look is warm chocolate brown and gold eye makeup paired with cool wine red lips. (I don't wear a lot of base stuff, my skin is far too textured for me to even wanna bother.) And I think it works wonderfully together. My favorite color is wine red and I've found the most unexpected colors working surprisingly well together with it. Like gold, baby pink, warm brown and even turqoise. Baby pink and raspberry are basically just lighter versions of wine red (ie same amount of red and blue) so whatever works with those, generally works with wine red. And I mean, most people would think for ex blue and gold go together. They are opposites on the color wheel (complimentary colors, right?) which is also a type of contrast. And also... the fucking rainbow?! No one thinks it's ugly just because it has a mix or warm and cool colors. So on some level we all know that warm and cool can work together. But some combinations of warm and cool just don't work together imo. Like for ex brick red and purplish pink, or teal and moss green. They kinda clash. That's when contrast goes awry, imo. Although that might just be personal taste. I also get that us neutrals just kinda break the "rule" of the seasonal version of color theory. That "are you a winter, spring, etc" kinda thing, because we don't fit into that concept. And that does put the whole concept into question. Although I still think undertones matter, even if they're only 50% of the equation. Because like... even though I'm a neutral that doesn't seem to mean I can pull off all kinds of shades. Like I seem to look objectively weird in warm reds and blues, and cool greens, for some reason. But when I reverse that it works. So while I can look great in gold and mossy greens, I seem to look really bad in coral and emerald. Which is a shame because I really like emerald green, I just can't make it work for me. It makes me look like I have liver failure. And if I'm gonna be honest I think a similar thing happened in your makeup here, but in reverse oddly enough. The warm browns and corals, as well as the cool purples look glowy on you, but I feel like that bright gold is a little jarring and the ashy browns made you look kinda hollowed out. But all in all together, neither side looks better or worse. Obviously people can wear whatever they want, but I'm not gonna like everything I see.
Thanks for the interesting video Kackie. I'm not even remotely close to being a makeup artist, but I mix my makeup tones all the time too. I love using a copper toned eyeshadow with a navy blue eyeliner. It totally makes green blue eyes pop! I also have a neutral warm undertone, and I apply cool blush/lipstick when ever I want to wear cool toned clothing. Otherwise, many cool colors would clash with my golden skin. It's like magic, I can turn my deep autumn complexion into a deep winter by only changing my lipstick/blush. Makeup is so much fun !!
Newbie here! I'm 60 now, and in the early 1980s when i was starting out in my teens/twenties with makeup (and my adult life) there was the new concept/book "Colour Seasons" ("are you a winter, fall, spring, summer?"), which because i was into fashion life, i studied and analyzed it. But for ME i studied even harder because I didn't feel i fit in 100% to any of those seasons. It was a good starting point as far as awareness goes, but eventually i figured out what made me look sickly and what made me look dynamic (or at least awake). Just recently, someone pointed out I might be a very light complexion of "green" (olive) (pink lipsticks look great on me, and coral also - unless i get into lighter corals/beiges/browns... bleh). Olive makes sense because my family is European and most of my friends in Germany are obvious darker olive tone - but i assumed early i could be olive because i am very light. So i think this is highly likely, but now it doesn't matter. In my 20s I was hell-bent on looking great😆, so i learned quickly and it's proven itself to me over and over again over the years.
TikTok is....not my jam to say the least. I'm also stubborn and take being told "no, don't do that" as a challenge😏 Your videos are unlocking the real reason I love makeup so much! Your contrast video kind of blew my mind to say the least. It explained so much and now my brain is seeking out more than just "that's a pretty blush". Now I'm seeking out "how can I make that pretty blush work for me".
i just love your energy! i haven't put makeup on since i had covid - it absolutely fucked my skin up :x i wish i could, this video is just so much fun and energetic and i wish i could experiment with colours rn! ps: i feel like if you match it to your skin tone, your makeup will look a little washed out and very subtle and natural. and if you go into contrast it will stand out more, but if done in moderation still will not look unnatural. it is just a matter of what you are looking for
Absolutely agree with you. Never understood the nonsense of only warm or cool tones, as if it was one or the other. I’ve been doing everything and anything in between, as long as I feel like it and it looks good. Btw, you’re delightfully entertaining along with being informative and helpful. Kudos. ❤
I'm very pale olive with the lilac lips like yours. I LOVE to do my eyes in cool shades of shadow or liner and do my cheeks & lips in a warmer coral shade; the combination totally POPS my dark brown eye color. Crazy!
This was both such. a helpful and fun video to watch. Thank you for showing us that we can wear whatever colour we like but the tones and temperature are what make things work.
I tend to agree because in my mind color season analysis has so many variables it actually COMPLICATES it instead of simplifying it? But I also hear from a lot of people who it really simplifies things for them. I'm glad it exists because any way to approach it and understand it is good. It just doesn't work for me 😂
Older viewer chiming in: I’m neutral/warm, historically an “autumn” but I’m graying heavily around my face, so becoming a soft/muted Autumn now. I do not have veneers, and cannot bleach my teeth - too much pain! - so while I have NATURALLY white teeth, warm lip colors do me no favors now. Finding that I’m better in cooler makeup colors though too-cool is definitely still possible. Since my aesthetic is old school “I woke up like this,” I’m not interested in anything that doesn’t just make me look better. Thanks for this. Very interesting!
Thanks for this! I love cool toned blush..but I like to throw on warmer blush. RMS in Hanky Panky looks warmer on me. I also try a neutral foundation to take out the pink in my fair skin and it looks fine; matches my neck.
The way I think of it for makeup is True Yellow as the most warm, and blue violet as being the most cool on a linear scale, and of course, there are exceptions.
What you see about your eyes trained is also the case for haircolorists 😉 I see the blue in ash tones, the purple in pearl tones, and sometimes the pink in copper tones (when it's close to the actual metal color) 😊 Definitely the best teaching video about makeup colors and how they are relative to each other 😍 Love your laugh, it's powerful 🥰
Excellent information! I now know why my cool eyeshadow always looks wrong on me, because my face is always warm.....my experiments will begin!! Thank you
So much fun to watch the way my eye reads the colours as you combine them and work them together. Golly, I am so thrilled I was recommended your channel. I apologize now for the incoming spam of my enthusiastic replies and I binge everything you’ve done 😂❤
My grandma brought me up on Color Me Beautiful or the skin tones divided into "seasons" (Spring and Winter were cool and Summer and Autumn were warm) which made understanding color really easy as a child and made color slightly confusing as a teen and by the time I was an adult and working in Sephora as a beauty advisor I learned several things. 1) undertones are so relative that it makes my head hurt, especially when considering the diverse range of skin. 2) most people, and even make up companies, don't always understand undertones. Between 1 and 2, I regularly let clients know that everyone is unique, adding that I consider my own skin 2/3rd cool and 1/3rd neutral, and that they're somewhere in the middle too. Just wear whatever I say looks best because it's literally my job to help you not look stupid and I've been learning and relearning about this since I was old enough to make owning a black fur coat a life goal (five, I was five.)
This demo was awesome! Both looks are great! Side note: for some reason, as you built up the cool side, it kept having more and more of a Julia Roberts look to me. Like I couldn’t unsee it haha
Seriously! Even like “neutral” browns came off as warm on me, yet because I’m a redhead, everyone assumes I have warm or neutral undertones (I’m a fair cool/neutral). I’m tempted to use a silver gray to contour because everything reads as orange. I think I unconsciously adopted your “cool tones recede” note as a result, and now the struggle is finding products that are good for porcelain complexions. I’m still trying to find a lip color I like that doesn’t read as purple or red/pink on me; my neutral lipgloss is the Nyx in “butterscotch”.
Thank you for these different make up wearing videos. I’m trying not to buy more makeup right now, and love to talk about the different application methods, undertone methods, and new ways to think about your makeup. It makes it more fun!
Ahhhhh ok. Lots of lightbulbs. Also I was getting so confused as to why eyeshadows (like… most colors) pull verrrryyyy orange on me. My face is neutral for the most part! But after you made comments about the different depths and textures of skin I looked at my eyelids up close and realized they’re very purple compared to the rest of my face. It was a lightbulb moment! Anyway… thank you for the many many makeup lightbulbs ❤
My mind is blown!! This opens up so many doors! AH I can finally use all of those blushes I’ve buried because they were so warm toned, I can’t wait to experiment. Thank you thank you, this is probably the most valuable technique I’ve learned all year.
When you were applying your foundation i was like "where is it...?"lol Im so used to seeing influencers caking thier face with foundation. Iove how in depth you go with colour theory, Im new so hey, great work! 👋 Edit: This is one of the best make up videos ive watched in years! Amazing! I cant help but love the warm skin and the cool eyes, so beautiful
This was such a helpful video! I was first a bit sceptical, but what I have learned from years of doing my makeup is exactly this. It isn’t to do with a colour being cool or warm, but if it’s cool or warm relating to you. I am more of a cool tone myself and I tend to wear more cool tones, but I also love to dabble in warm tones. The only colours I find that I don’t use at all are oranges or camels as they just read orange and kinda sickly on me. Otherwise I find depth and saturation of colour to be much more important for me. I cannot wear too dark as I am extremely fair and I don’t really look good in too muddy colours. Thank you again for the video!
All I know is that the warm looks BETTER on you imho, but you can pull off that subtle cooler tone, especially with those cool lips of yours. Not everyone can "see" it as easily as you, given your trained eye, so that's why I appreciate knowing that I am a light spring, ( had a professional color analysis done) and can now understand why warmer tones look better on me. And I have to say, I am getting sooooo many more compliments than ever before, and I use less makeup, and dress in my color palette.
Omg yes ! I don't an art background like at all , so it has taken me many ,many , many years to figure all this out on my own... but now it's getting so much easier now that I understand color theory better ... Thank you for making this video ❤
Hi, thank you for explaining the difference between cool tones and warm tones, the lesson I learned was to know how to use them, which makes all the difference in the world, I love grey tones, or silver, , most people donot like grey ( this is what I heard), Im a fan of grey eye shadow, , definitely will try it out , thank you
