Deep Winter

Deep Winter makeup

Use the palette to choose a color direction for lips, cheeks and eyes. Product opacity and your natural coloring change the result.

Blackened berry, deep blue and cool emerald make substantial anchors. A pale cool detail can add definition without turning the whole outfit pastel.

Lips

Try cranberry, cool wine, deep berry; compare a sheer and fuller application.

Cheeks

Use a light layer in a related color family, then check the dried finish in daylight.

Eyes

Start with three neutral depths. Choose the contrast and coverage you find comfortable.

A practical rule

These are color-family suggestions, not foundation shades. Match foundation to actual skin and swatch products before buying.

For this palette, begin with moderate contrast and adjust the size of the accent.

Try it with what you own

Choose one item from your wardrobe or makeup kit. Compare it with a chip, then look at the actual item in neutral daylight. Keep notes about combinations you enjoy.
