Are you Color Analysis DEEP?

The Seasons not doing it for you? You could be Tonal!

Seems to me that following the Color Analysis Quiz you may well belong to the DEEP Color Family.

Looking your best starts with understanding your natural coloring and echoing it with the colors and even the makeup you wear. Allow me to explain...

Match your coloring...

Your overall look is dark - almost exotic!

Your Hair: could be anywhere from brunette to black, or even a very deep auburn.

As you transition into gray hair, there will still be depth with some deep steel grey underneath or at the back of your head together with dark eyebrows. In other words you are unlikely to become white or a light silver!   

Your Eyes: will be dark brown, black or sometimes deep hazel.

Your Skin tone: could be from beige through to deep brown and, at times, can appear sallow.

Forget Warm or Cool - you have elements of both!

You can forget Warm or Cool with this palette because you have elements of both WARM and COOL in your natural coloring. 

DEEP is your primary characteristic which means that a STRONG INTENSITY of color i.e. heavy pigment, is the most important factor when you choose colors.

And every one of the Deep colors will complement your natural coloring creating harmony!

Seasonal Analysis wouldn't work as you would be wrongly determined as AUTUMN or WINTER

Your color family includes a whole spectrum of colors because colors that have a heavy pigment (DEEP) can be Warm, Cool, Dramatic and even Soft. 

There are 45 fabulous colors in the Deep color swatch and each one echoes your own natural coloring. 

There's no need to ever feel limited with colors because whether you're looking for red, blue, green or purple - you'll find the most flattering version for YOU in the DEEP palette.

How to make a connection!

If you are Color Analysis DEEP, you will always look your best when you anchor your outfit on a DEEP shade - that is a deep or intense pigment. 

Contrast is also important - note how good the black/white duo is. 

This makes a strong connection with your dark coloring - whereas colors with a Light pigment will make you look washed out. 

DEEP shades create balance with YOU!..

Dark hair and brows help to create the strong contrast and, even without makeup you invariably look good. The strength of your coloring may not have been obvious until you're introduced to the bold and beautiful shades of your COLOR FAMILY.

The DEEP colors support and balance your own coloring - your complexion will bloom, your eyes look brighter and your hair color more intense. Less intense colors can wash you out (see right). 

When your colors balance and echo your natural coloring, they allow YOU to shine!

Your most flattering colors

Your best Neutrals

• Deep neutrals are the strongest and most saturated neutrals of all.

• It doesn't matter whether they are Warm or Cool, the fact that they are strong and DEEP is the most important factor.  

• They will create the backbone of your wardrobe - black, charcoal gray, chocolate brown and deep navy. 

Your best Accent colors

• The most important factor is DEEP, no matter whether they are Warm or Cool.

How to visualize your DEEP colors

It can be difficult to visualize how the colors from your swatch come together in an outfit so for real visual inspiration the DEEP tones from Kettlewell Colours show how the fabulous DEEP colors will bring your color swatch to life!

It would be easy to say that you are halfway between AUTUMN and WINTER but this is not strictly true. Although Deep is an element of both it is only the TRUE DEEP shades from each that are included in the DEEP color palette.

With elements of both Warm and Cool you will find many of your colors in both the AUTUMN and WINTER collections. 

The Deepest of Autumn colors

None of the soft and muted tones of Autumn here, DEEP takes just the boldest and strongest colors.

And none of the pale icy shades of Winter, DEEP takes just the boldest and strongest colors.

The DEEP INTENSITY of this palette will add vitality to your natural coloring.

Is Deep for any particular ethnicity?

Women that belong to the Deep Color Family most of all have strong coloring and it is strong colors that offer you balance. Whether you are Warm or Cool is of secondary importance. 

Although some Women of Color will fall into this category this, by no means, relates to all.

How to cope with the 'wrong' colors

I shouldn't use that word really because all color is glorious but we know that some colors are more flattering for you than others!! 

You've probably got many garments in your closet that you're suddenly going to worry about! But don't worry, just introduce some of your new flattering shades close to your face and soften the effect!

You might choose a scarf, a collar over a jacket, even a pair of earrings to bring light and color to your complexion.
