The good news? By slightly adjusting your palette, you can instantly achieve a fresher complexion, as if after a walk by the sea.
Black: a safe bet… but not always strategic
We love it: it slims the figure, elevates an outfit, and simplifies our busy mornings. However, worn near the face, black can accentuate natural shadows and make features appear harsher. If you truly love this color—and we understand!—opt for it on the lower half, or soften its intensity with a bright scarf, light-colored jewelry, or subtle makeup
Navy blue that’s too deep: when elegance lacks brilliance
Dark blue is often considered a “safe” alternative to black… but it can produce a similar effect when it’s highly saturated. The result: the complexion appears less even, less vibrant, as if the light is no longer reflecting properly. To maintain its elegance without losing radiance, opt for brighter blues: royal blue, indigo, peacock blue… true allies for a healthy glow.
Pastels: soft on paper, less flattering on the skin
They evoke summer ice cream, light sweaters, and the return of warmer weather. Yet, pastels can sometimes offer too little contrast with the skin, giving a slightly tired look. There’s no need to banish them: they can be worn in small touches, on accessories, or you can choose slightly bolder versions like a light raspberry pink or a vibrant sky blue.
