Colour Guide : Autumn (Warm tones)

Autumn faceAutumn complexions vary from light to very dark.  Your colouring is rich and warm with a yellowy base.  An Autumn glow has a fiery intensity which can lack contrast

Applying Autumn colours to Autumn hair and faces, evens out the complexion and brings it to life.  Other seasons will look muddy if they wear your colours

 

Hair:

Red, Coppery tones with a definite warmth will suit in light or dark shades.  Colour your locks with a chestnut shade to wow
