A little color, used well

Makeup families

Deep brick, warm wine, cinnamon brown are starting color directions. Coverage and natural lip pigment change how a cosmetic shade looks.

Hair color directions

Deep chestnut, warm espresso, dark auburn can be useful swatch families to discuss with a colorist. A season label does not require changing your natural hair.

Colors to approach differently

Very pale pastel outfits and cool icy pink can feel disconnected from deeper, warmer anchors. Use them in smaller areas or away from the face if you enjoy them.

Questions about Deep Autumn

What colors suit Deep Autumn?

Start with Warm-neutral color, Deep depth and a Moderately soft finish. The original 72-color collection below shows how those qualities can translate into neutrals, accents and metal-inspired tones.

Can Deep Autumn wear black?

Try a dark neutral next to your face and compare it with black. A cool deep season may find black easier; a warm deep season can prefer espresso. A black skirt or bag has less effect on facial color than a high neckline.

Is navy a Deep Autumn color?

Navy covers many different blues. A muted, green-shifted navy behaves differently from a very saturated blue-black. Use the color checker with the exact hex code, then compare the actual fabric in daylight.

What hair color works for Deep Autumn?

Possible starting families include deep chestnut, warm espresso, dark auburn. Your natural depth is a useful reference, but dye, gray hair and lighting do not change what you are allowed to wear. Test a temporary swatch before a permanent color change.

How do I tell Deep Autumn from a neighboring season?

Change one quality at a time: warmth, depth or clarity. Keep the fabric size, finish and lighting similar. Compare whether the color is the first thing you notice, or whether your face feels equally defined.
