Before and After: Neon Green and Vivid Blue


Amanda: Before and After

Here is Amanda wearing shirts in fluorescent green and a shiny blue.
Before: Face Washed Out
The green is NOT on her list of best colors. Look at her cheeks in the two pictures. When she wears green, her skin loses its warm color. It's pale and washed out and looks an unhealthy yellow  (called sallow).
After: Healthy color in her face
With the blue shirt, her skin looks more alive and healthy. Her eyes brighten in the blue as well. 


As you decide on what colors are best for you, analyze how a color adds either a healthy glow, or a washed out paleness. Your best colors make your skin glow.

Before and After: Cool Taupe and Hot Pink


Tabitha: Before and After

This is Tabitha dressed in cool taupe and hot pink. You can see a difference in the vibrancy of her skin and lips when she wears this cool color of taupe and this hot pink.
Before: Skin looks bumpy and blah, lips invisible
The yellows and browns in her necklace look great next to her skin, but they are overpowered by the mis-matched tone of her taupe shirt. Her lip color is muted, and her skin looks rougher, especially around the chin and on the forehead.
After: Her skin looks vibrant and more smooth, lips brighter
Now look at Tabitha in hot pink. Not only are does this hot pink shirt bring out her lips, but because it's one of her best colors, her skin look smoother. Look at how the different colors you wear bring affect the color of your lips--even when you wear the same color of lipstick or gloss. Look at how the color affects your skin--colors that are wrong for you will reveal your skin's imperfections.

Before and After: Cool Taupe and Charcoal Blue


Amanda: Before and After

This is Amanda wearing a cool taupe and a charcoal blue. 



Before: Deepened shadows around her face and eyes
The undertones of her skin are warm. So when she wears this pink-based taupe, which is a cool color, she does not look her best. See how the shadows darken under her eyes? See how all the natural lines are her face deepen? And her eyes lose their luster?
After: Lightened and brightened skin and eyes


Compare Amanda in taupe to her wearing charcoal. This charcoal has some blue in it that brings out her eyes. Her face looks lighter because the color of her shirt isn't adding shadows to it. Beautiful though Amanda is, when she wears colors that match her skin undertones, then she looks her best. 


When you're looking for your best colors, look for colors that brighten and lighten your face.

Madonna is a beautiful woman, but any perfection in her photos is not real. Perhaps we could say: People aren't perfect, but Photoshop is! We women should not compare ourselves to the sleek, perfect photos that are manufactured not born.

However, just because we don't Photoshop ourselves in real life doesn't mean we can't dress to look good. Dressing in certain colors that match your eyes, hair and skin colors, helps minimize your imperfections.

Don't know what your colors are? Don't know what clothing colors that help you look your best? The iPad app Color Me True guides women step by step in a personalized, customized color analysis. Upon finishing the analysis, the Color Me True app creates a palette of colors--the specific and special colors that look great on that woman!

Coming soon... stay connected to this blog to among the first to know when the Color Me Tru app is available in iTunes.
