Which is your preference Purple or Red?
Rich, dramatic and bewitching purples and violets, or bold, sultry and vampy reds and burgundies?
These tend to be fall and winter favorites. Not every brand, every year—brings out a fall or winter red and purple range, however, ''usually'' at least one of these colours are found or featured every fall and/or winter by a myriad of collections and/or brands.
Aubergine or eggplant, blackberry, grape, plum, mauve, fig, etc. are just some rich purples/violets. Purples and violets tend to be regarded as cooler colours, but more people can wear this than they know. Those with brown, green and hazel eyes, their eye colours are enhanced with a range of medium to deeper purple eyeshadows, and those with blue eyes—are enhanced with softer and slightly muted medium purple eyeshadows. When it comes to skin tones: the colour wheel allocates purple/violet as a cool colour, but in terms of hair it tends to be designated as a neutral—therefore more universally flattering, even with those with olive toned skin.
Oxblood, burgundy, maroon, wine, auburn, cardinal, etc. are just some bold reds. Reds tend to be a safer colour since they can lean warm, cool, muted or remain a true red, and usually anyone can pull off some kind of red when it comes to lipsticks and nail polishes. When it comes to skin tones: cooler tones will look better with cooler looking reds, just as warmer tones will look better with warmer looking reds. If you are olive toned true reds will look best makeup wise, but reds for hair is generally cautioned.
