Cool and warm colours

Here at beautyheaven, we love a good fact. Hence us loving this little gem from make-up director, Rae Morris:


“Mauve, aubergines [eggplant] and burgundies are the only shades in the colour wheel that are both cool and warm, so that means no matter what eye colour, hair colour or skin tone you are, they will suit you. No matter what.”

 

– Rae Morris, L’Oreal Paris Make-up Director
