Which Tone of Colour Suits You?













Which Tone of Colour Suits You?

Trinny & Susannah's 'Colour the Nation' experiment dispersed all our colour myths and misconceptions.

Blondes can wear orange, red-heads can wear yellow, brunettes can wear silver: they just need to find the right TONE of colour to suit hair, eyes and skin. They grouped the nation into three tone categories:

Cool tones: hair: white or ash blonde, black, dark brown, mid-brown. NOT: red or auburn, no ginger or yellow at all
eyes: dark or have a dark iris edge

skin: alabaster white, olive, black. NOT: freckly, no red at all
Wear: navy blue, dark red, dark grey, dove grey, bright turquoise, blue red, cardinal purple
