Colors for cold winter color type. Color type "deep winter"
The unique appearance is determined by the shape of the nose, the cut and color of the eyes, the structure of the hair, in addition, color types are conventionally distinguished according to the seasons: summer, autumn, winter, spring.

What is winter
The winter color type is complex, black-haired rarely have beautiful blue eyes, most of them are brown, the skin tone is swarthy with a yellowish tint. It is important to determine whether this is the type of appearance, the choice of clothing and makeup depends on this. The owners of the winter color type live in different regions, they are combined into groups:
- 1. Deep winter: glowing porcelain skin and bright black hair. Sometimes the skin is olive with a cold bluish tint. The eyes are always bright, pure color. If blue, then sapphire, icy. Black - penetrating through. Saturated brown or deep green color without impurities of gray and brown. Proteins shine, contrasting with the iris.
Bright representatives of the color type: Elina Bystritskaya, Elizabeth Taylor, Dita Von Teese, Penelope Cruz, Cindy Crawford.
- 2. Warm winter(southern or soft) avoids contrasts. It differs from deep skin tone - dark olive, warm, with varying degrees of intensity. The skin of a mild winter tans quickly and well, acquiring a shade of bitter chocolate. From celebrities it is appropriate to cite Sophia Loren as an example. The mild winter color type is characteristic of the Mediterranean.
- 3. Bright winter. Hair color varies from light brown to blond, skin and eye color, as in deep winter.
Palette of colors
The colors are the brightest and most saturated, they are clean, cold, intense. The palette of winter is the colors of cold bright December day. Contrasting combinations are recommended in clothes, the most famous and win-win option is black and white. In warm autumn colors, winter is lost, becomes inexpressive.
A pure color is easier to achieve in plain clothes; black can be taken as the basis of the wardrobe. It is easy to combine other winter colors with it, which will sparkle with dazzling colors against the background of expressive black. Deep blue (caribbean), dark chocolate, anthracite, a rich range of red shades are also great for the winter color type.
Royal outfits of ruby red, lingonberry, crimson, raspberry, magenta tones will be enlivened by a rich green palette. Emerald green, the color of young grass, pastel colors - indistinct, complexly mixed, will destroy the dazzling beauty of winter.
For the spring and summer wardrobe in winter, the snow-white color is flawless, sparkling white, without impurities of other shades. A palette with the inclusion of white can be used in winter. These are refined and noble: snow-blue, snow-pink, snow-brown sets, diluted with a snow-white scarf, scarf or stole.

hair shades
Hair color emphasizes the beauty and uniqueness of women of the winter color type, which are extremely attractive in the game of contrast between the color of hair, skin and eyes. It is strongly not recommended to lighten hair, it is more likely to become a “gray mouse”.
Only in adulthood, winter can afford light shades in ashy colors, without yellowness. Platinum hair transforms a cold winter into a warm one. The most suitable "winter" paints are bluish or blue-red (for example, eggplant).
Hairstyles and haircuts can be anything, but without excessive playfulness. Sports haircuts look good, smooth rectangular caret, long straight hair and aggressive "needles" modeled with a gel.
Makeup
Makeup should be contrasting: White skin- bright red or purple lips, pale lips - richly emphasized eyes. It is not recommended to emphasize the lips and eyes at the same time and outline the cheekbones with bright blush. The cold, restrained and contrasting charm of winter will disappear without a trace. This is the main makeup requirement for the winter type - lips or eyes. Excess makeup turns uniqueness into mediocrity.
The palette of tonal creams is transparent, almost white, of beige tones, closer to cold pink, not giving off yellowness. Blush cool shades - pink, dusty rose, mocha, dark red wine and purplish pink. The cheekbones do not exude, only a slight cold glow from the cheeks.
Lipstick bright and pure color: icy shades of hot pink, rich cherry red, blood red. The color of watermelon and cold lilac look interesting. Pink is a wonderful color to brighten up the look of the winter color type, it can be used from delicate Barbie colors to aggressive pink.
For makeup, please dark tones, in the so-called dramatic style. Shades of the color of the night sky, anthracite, lilac, dark green, plum blue, fuel oil. Of the jewelry, transparent stones, silver, platinum and diamonds will play spectacularly, even if in the form of rhinestones.

There is no spring variegation or a smooth summer flow from color to color, but there is color severity. The contrast in lightness that I mentioned above can be seen in all examples. For example, this is a black jacket with a white collar in the first example, and light trousers and a dark coat in the second. There is a contrast in color, but it looks very restrained. In the third example Blue colour bags contrast with a burgundy jacket. Of course, any combination of dark colors is good for a dark winter. But with this, I think there will be no problems. Everything is simple here.

There are also differences in color combinations. For a dark winter, combinations of serious, restrained, without variegation are suitable. This color type refers to winters, so you need to apply a contrast in lightness.
For dark autumn, richer color combinations are suitable. Monochrome and analog combinations look good here. This is because in autumn color types all colors are slightly softened. in gray, so they are not as dramatic as those of a dark winter. But contrasting combinations are also good for dark autumn, and they can be richer in color.
I hope you felt the strength and, at the same time, the restraint of a dark winter and the generosity and warmth of a dark autumn.
