You are one of the best communicators on KZbin (or any video platform). You are clear, precise, and jam pack your videos with practical examples that make it so easy to absorb and retain what you're teaching. I really hope you're teaching in real life too ... young fashion students would love your teaching style, I reckon 😍🤩

[@pattiepepper6217]

Exactly! Justine has a way of explaining things that just make sense! You are ABSOLUTELY correct in my opinion. 😊🌈

[@elizabethhannah6836]

Well, she is teaching in an off-hand way. I know a young woman studying design, she is about to graduate this summer, and since she began I've been sending her links to Justine's videos that I feel she'd be interested in.

[@StaceWah]

@@elizabethhannah6836 off-hand? I dunno, Justine's videos always seem well prepared and structured to me.

[@elizabethhannah6836]

@@StaceWah I used "offhand" as an adjective, with the meaning of "informal" as in: Justine is teaching the young woman I know informally, since I forward her videos as a way to teach [the fashion design student] while I don't believe Justine intends these videos to be used in a classroom. I hope that makes better sense as I certainly meant no offense.

[@Bejewelle88]

I think there's further to go with the colour palettes - for instance a lot of cool toned people look amazing in lemon yellow or ice pink/fuchsia/magenta, just as warm toned people have warm toned greens and blues (apple green or aqua or turquoise (which could be universal))

[@ljupkan3873]

Yes, magenta!

[@julieme7927]

I think this is more a capsule wardrobe palette. I don't think it's meant to exclude any colours for anybody. I'm cool toned and I can't imagine doing a capsule wardrobe with the colours you mentioned but they'd be lovely as accent colours (like the pop of yellow she put in)

[@gabrielap5352]

And red!!!! Anne Hathaway's red carpet outfits are a good example of this. She is a typical deep winter color palette and looks amazing in Valentino's red.

[@dessertisland2491]

I agree! Every colour can have a cold and a warm version, even red and blue. I found the video on colour theory by AlexandrasGirlyTalk more informative, because she did not simply split the colour wheel in half, she showed the dimension of every colour.

[@shelookstome8727]

I think contrast/saturation has a huge role to play too. I look good in pastels including those on the cool side even though I'm warm-toned.

[@rfrolicarts]

I'm glad you included yellow in your palette. A lot of people with cool undertones can wear pale yellow and look great, which also tends to look really nice against blue.

[@liverbirdxoxo1984]

[@bebly9797]

Red has many shades ( think about lipsticks) and can be both warm or cool: it depends on how much yellow or blue it contains.

[@RainbowSunshineRain]

There’s a video from Justine on lipstick explaining this.

[@athag1]

I totally agree. As much as I respect Justine, I prefer Merriam’s (of Merriam Style) take on cool and warm colours. I definitely have a cool skin undertone and burgundy is definitely a power co;our of mine.

[@maryokeefe5351]

@@athag1 Me too and red is my power colour. I get a lot of compliments when I wear it.

[@lafandenuel5605]

That's what I was taught in middle school. 3 primary colors, magenta, cyan and yellow, that you can mix among them and with black and white. I have always thought of red and green as a mix with different percentage of magenta and yellow, with a tiny cuantity of blue, for red, and a mix in different percentages of cyan and yellow with a tiny cuantity of magenta for green. So, using different percentages of colors I have realized that my particular mix of skin, eyes and hair colors is more flattered when I move over the section of color wheel with the lowest percentage of yellow. That makes the small cuantity of yellow in my skin stand out, match with my eyes (lots of yellow in them) and hair (ashy, ashy, ashy, but also with yellow in it), and look more balanced overall. At least is the way I finally reached to understand after years of auto-observation and reading and watching experts on that matter. In conclusion, to simplify it all for me, I focus in yellow, avoiding it on what I wear to enhance it on my skin and balance wit hair and eyes. Tricky, huh?

[@athag1]

@@lafandenuel5605 That’s amazing that you were able to arrive at this on your own! If you watch the Merriam Style channel, her approach is almost opposite, but maybe it’s like cracking an egg from two different ends - in the end you get the same result…

I have cool undertones and my wardrobe is largely blue. Navy work dresses, denim and paler blues for the weekends. Teal and purple for occasion wear. I think I need to add in more green and purple to widen the spectrum of my wardrobe. Great video, thanks for sharing

[@bizzlecrafts]

Same, my wardrobe is mostly blue, black, white and grey with the occasional purple. It works out very well.

[@lanetep]

I’m a cool toned, fair skinned, silver haired person of Irish descent and I’ve been WAITING for this video. My big takeaway is the warm accent genius idea. I have always worried in summer that cool pastel tones feel weak and too ultra feminine and I have to admit I’ve been a wee bit envious of my warm toned friends that can rock orange and sunny yellows. Adding an accent piece in the warm palette is the perfect solution! THANK YOU JUSTINE!!

[@Fleta_Maughner]

South East Asian here, my skin is literally fresh toast but i love the cool pallette so much, like all of my favorite colours are there. I'm glad that there's a way i can wear my cools without making my skin looks desaturated.

[@irairod5160]

Yay! I love that you called me "cool people"! I have slight olive undertones and can wear some of those "border" and darkened hues (red purple, burgundy, mulberry, eggplant) pretty well, but if they start taking on their warmer utterances (maroon, tomato red) my skin immediately looks blotchy and my under eye area becomes very blue and looks hollow. Both dark and bright purple-pinks (fuchsia, raspberry, hot pink, magenta) make my eyes sparkle, not so with peachy-pinks, corals, or pale cherry blossom pinks. Green is flattering, too, as long as it's not dark olive, khaki, absinthe, or chartreuse. And most blues are complimentary (navy, cerulean, wedgwood, chambray, cyan, teal, indigo, cobalt) against the high contrast of my skin and hair/eyes, as long as they are not too pastel (light turquoise, lavender blue). I feel those drain the color in my skin and sort of "float" on my body, like they don't belong on me. I loved this video (and all of your other videos!) Thank you!

[@heidilarson5109]

I've never heard of wedgwood blue so naturally I googled it. Pretty!

[@elysiacelestewells4155]

I am the same, I think I am cool but I also have olive tones. I am just confused. I look amazing in purple, reds, and most greens but I look like a corpse in yellows and washed out in light blues. I can sometimes pull off a salmon but it has to be very pinkish.

Hey Justine, I'm going to add to the olive toned voices in the comments. My skin is yellowish going to a golden brown when I tan. My veins show green, blue and purple and I prefer cool tones but can and definitely enjoy warm tones. I loved both of your videos on the cool and warm color palettes but I couldn't relate to much of it being so in between. Im hoping that the neutrals really speak to me because gray, black and blue have been long favorites and they work so well. Thank you for all the great information you give us.

[@SueRosalie]

the theory about vein colour is false. Ignore. Watch Audrey Coyne's video about olive skin. Most olive skinned brunettes are winters. Your dark colour can enable you to get away with some warm colours but are they the best on you? Probably not.

[@Jackiemayc]

Until your video I’d never heard anyone say that you can wear warm toned accessories with a cool outfit and vice versa. Thank you! It’s always said that cool toned people can only wear silver and warm toned people can only wear gold. I appreciate your more flexible approach, and how you demonstrate it with pictures of outfits where this works. Great advice!

Hi Justine! A wonderful and useful video as always!

THANK YOU !!!!!💐

[@sophiemondore6064]

Loved the video ! One trick I learned from a color consultant is that you don't have to wear only what suits you, you just have to control the place where the color touches your skin and wear what you like elsewhere. You can cheat ! For instance, I am cool-toned, but I like and wear a lot of black. I just never let black be next to my skin. If I wear head-to-toe black, I make sure I have a cool scarf between the black top and my skin, so the transition is smooth and more harmonious. I also use blazers to the same effect; or color-block warm bottoms with cool tops (this is more tricky but also a lot of fun), especially in winter, where I wear gloves and closed-toe shoes. I happen to like the "pop effect" produced by mixing warm and cool tones; but it has to be done with caution and subtlety. Make-up and accessories are my (shy) best friends !

[@RainbowSunshineRain]

I have been professional colour analysed and it was worth every penny. I am a Cool Summer .... But when I allowed my real hair colour to come through, it turned out I am pure white silver these days.

Unfortunately I think people use the term two ways: 1) a red with a blue hue, 2) red with no yellow (true red). However I think 100% "true" primary colours can be pretty difficult to avhieve with the pigments available for makeup, so usually you end up with blue red, even if it is relatively true.

Thank you for this, Justine. Loved the explanation using color swatches. It's so important to know your undertone because often the colors we love are different from the ones that actually suit us.

Such helpful tips here - I love this channel! I have also learned [from working with colour expert Jen Vax] that it is also really important to determine whether you suit bright, clear colours or soft, muted colours. If you are dark and cool, you might suit, for example, bright deep fuchsia, cobalt and dark, clear emerald vs soft raspberry, soft navy and soft deep green. Similarly for medium and light colouring. So interesting!

I really enjoy your color videos. I am pretty sure I'm a cool/soft summer - I do look better in the greyed-out cool colors. But there are some reds (very few) that work well too - raspberry and cranberry in particular, which always surprises me. From the number of people who are confused about their "season" I'd guess a lot of people have exceptions.

Thank you Justine for the incredible videos! I’d love a video expanding on color accents for a cool or warm palette if possible. 🙂

I've known for decades that I am a cool toned person or skin tone. I have always been attracted to blues and greens, and various hues of these shades. Or is it various shades of these hues? Anyway, this was a fun video on how to build a wardrobe based on whether a person's skin tone is cool or warm. Thanks for your fun and informative videos.

Thank you so much, it was really helpful and useful ! I was pleasing to listen to you, you explain clearly and with bonne humeur !

I have discovered a new interest un purple. I used to dislike the colour until I realised recently that it actually suits me very well. Now I'm trying to find out which purple will flatter me the most. I'm still unsure about my undertone and think I could be neutral, leaning towards warm. We'll see.

New to the channel while ironing clothes today , saw them by a different perspective! great job! Thank you !

[@axiomatic-z5k]

Very informative! I’m cool toned, but I wear mostly tan and red. The blues make me feel sad and the warms are so cozy.

Hello, Justine! Greetings from the U.S.☀ I am a warm to neutral yet enjoy cool tone colors such as deep blues and greens. I love purples but would only use in an accessory. Your color palette for wardrobe was perfect for a fair individual. My late Mom was a fair skinned gal and your palette selections looked exactly like her wardrobe colors. ✨

[@LuluBowenTarot]

For me, this is one of the best video's I've watched from you. Thank you

[@33goodwitch]

Thank you so much for the amazing series! I am neutral leaning cool, and you have helped me so much. My sister is super cool toned and this video is perfect! I am so excited for the neutrals video, I love neutral colors for my clothes and even my decor.

[@mbelieve9919]

The color guide videos have been my favorite. Thank you!

[@lauramarczyk7644]

Great video, thank you for sharing! Can you also make vudeks on more specific seasons, like for example I'm a cool summer (cool/neutral tone, blond, light eyes, pink cheeks) would love to listen more about cool summer and other seasons based on your expertise ❤️

[@szilviakaprinyak5794]

Finally!! I dropped down everything when I saw the bell for this new video. :) Thank you so much!!

[@ivyli6045]

Hi Justin! I’ve been following your channel for over 2 years now and I enjoy every one of your video. I have learned so much from you! This video so far is my favorite because I can personally relate to it. My wardrobe has exactly the colors you used in the color palette but I still feel like I have nothing to wear. Now I’m inspired by this video and am definitely gonna start creating fun outfits. Thank you so much ♥️ looking forward to your next video 👍👍

[@karonmalingo5798]

This idea might help: I followed along with my color wheel. I just checked with Amazon and the wheel that I bought years ago is 5.5 inches (I'm American) and $10 (I'm still American) and it is still available. Some time ago, I looked into buying the color swatches which Justine uses. They don't fit my budget but the color wheel works great. Greetings to all and thanks to Justine.

I really like those videos and I've been interested in color temperature for a while. I'm a golden-neutral skin on the warmer side but I used to wear cool colors only growing up simply because that's what was selling at the time. It made me look sick. So I've begun to research which colors work for me. The thing is that I also am not a fan of warm colors: I don't wear yellow or orange, and I mostly only have dark greens and reds. I have found blues that work for me, especially those that go closer to gray. I think it's possible for someone with a warm skin tone to find hues that work for them in any color. Maybe they have to be diluted/faded a lot, but I still think it works!

[@patriciahunter607]

Hi J, Your KZbins are very, very good! I am glad you made them. 😀

[@AlexLouiseWest]

Thank you! This palette looked quite similar to my wardrobe: cool greens are my most flattering colour and I have worked outward from there. In response to your question about why there are more cool toned people watching your channel, I can only speak from my own experience, but I haven't been well-served by make-up counters in shops, etc, in the past, so I have a strong interest in the topic. There has been a tendency to try to convince me that warm-toned foundations and colour makeup look good on me, probably because that was all that was available. Actually, they make me look ill! Luckily, I was correctly identified as having cool skin while I was in my teens, even though I have dark brown eyes and there are some warm tones in my hair. So I could stand my ground when people tried to put me into terracotta or mustard which looked awful on me but great on my warm-toned mother.

I love how you train my eyes to color theory. Tu es magnifiques ma cherie

[@missrobinhoodie]

Cool video 😉 Can’t wait for the neutral one!

[@LyudmilaLF]

Always interesting 😜!

[@cepec3210]

Me too.:) JUSTINE IS BACK, YEYY.:)

[@joanacosta3665]

Justine, j'aime trop vos vidéos. Bravo!!! Elles sont claires et pleines d'info. Je ne m'en lasse pas. Merci .

[@wbflowersvt]

Thanks for this; I really liked the palette you created and never would have thought to bring in a pop of a warm color. Do you have any hints for how I can avoid bringing home the "wrong" colors? I find it really challenging to determine the temperature of color while shopping. Thanks!

[@christafranken9170]

I don't see colour very well, so my trick is to hold it next to my face and see if I look ill compared to without the piece there. If it makes me look ill, it's not coming with me

[@inspiredby624]

You could buy one of those fancy color palettes and bring it with you. Another option that helps sometimes is to wear one of your good colors while shopping. Hold the item you're considering to buy next to it and if the colors don't work together at all it's probably the "wrong" color.

[@Fashion.Outsider]

WOW I am blown away by how well thought out your videos are! Do you have any guidance for individuals with a neutral undertone? Thanks! 💕

[@MsRjutube]

Thanks very much for this video. Would you do a video on how a palette might change once we turn grey-haired?

[@erob65]

Thank you, Justine. I used your tips to determine that I have a neutral skin tone. I appreciate this video because I just love cool colors. Actually, my whole wardrobe is cool.

[@meshell7987]

Hi Justine! Thank you for those useful videos! Can you please explain in your next video in which case it is better to use brown as a main neutral color instead of black? Thank you!

[@saelind73]

I would totally wear that colour palette. However, I'm white cool skin undertone with black long hair, and I look great in red (deep cherry read), camel and lemon yellow too.

[@jeancollier2930]

This was very interesting. I am a "cool Summer" but I can wear a cool version of yellow very well - altho not a butter yellow, eg - and I can wear a cool rose red - but not a scarlet, eg. I can wear blue-green very well, but a mint green doesn't flatter me at all. So I think it's possible to stretch the palette somewhat, depending on the individual. Thanks, Justine, I always enjoy your videos!

[@melodybrooks7214]

Justine, what about hair colour? I would love it if you touched on this one day. Hair colour; high/low lights for warm, cool, neutral skin tones. Thanks you as always for a intelligent inspiring video.

[@user-no2mz9hl4f]

Lovely, informative, clear, and concise as usual. One thing I don’t understand is how someone can be cool toned, yet look better in red (on the pink spectrum, rather than vermillion) than green, if red is definitely warm, and green is definitely cool. That someone is me, so it’s not in theory. I definitely look better in red tones (pink, fuchsia, burgundy, classic, cherry red) than green ones, unless it’s a turquoise.
