Subtypes and varieties
Despite the rather painstaking division into subtypes, choosing the ideal one can be difficult, because each person is individual, and the appearance is special.
Soft
Mild winter is one of the most difficult color types of appearance, because it separates two opposite elements. Mild summers and bright winters are combined in this rich and at the same time delicate appearance. This color type is characterized by beige and olive skin, which tans well, but at the same time does not look very dark.
Hair color is cool, in most cases, brown with soft tints of cold shades. Eyes in this type have a combination of several shades, such as blue and green.
Warm
The "warm winter" color type is distinguished by the depth of dark shades. A girl with such an appearance captivates with black eyes and eyelashes in tandem with deep brown or black hair. Warmth is radiated by the skin of olive, bronze and beige tones, decorated with a summer tan, which takes and retains in itself for a long time. Warm winter is also called dark winter, without changing its meaning.
South
Its name speaks for the color type of "southern winter". He can be safely identified with the majority of passionate Cubans and Spanish women. Southern winters are close to warm and also have a dark skin tone. Hair color is distinguished by deep black or dark brown shade.

Natural
Natural winter is close to classic. Light skin with blueness in combination with black or dark brown hair is complemented by almost black eyes.
Low contrast
The subtype of low contrast winter includes warm and southern winter types. Its lack of contrast is due to the olive and beige skin tone, which looks especially organic with dark hair and dark or light eyes in pure shades.
Night
It is not surprising that the subtypes of color types are similar to each other and differ only in details that are hardly noticeable to the naked eye, because they are divided rather conditionally and do not have strict tables.
So the night winter combines elements of a warm winter. The tone of the skin here stands out for its coolness, however, at the same time it has a beige or olive tint. Such skin tans well, but in the absence of sunbathing it does not differ in dark skin, but is close to the middle tone.
Night winter brown hair can be medium to dark. Blue, gray and brown-green eyes give the appearance a soft coolness. ...

Eastern
Eastern winter is a non-contrasting color type. The main distinguishing feature of the color type is the same or very similar tone of hair and eyes, while the skin has an average tone.

Correct makeup
Let's also talk in more detail about what the correct makeup should be if you have a winter color type. It also has its own nuances that you need to know and remember, so your image will always be stylish, fashionable and harmonious.
Foundation or make-up base
These cosmetics occupy a special place in the correct make-up; it is extremely important to choose them correctly for your skin type and color. Speaking specifically about the base of makeup mods, it is worth noting that it should be best with a slight green tint, so you can easily mask all imperfections and redness.
If the skin is light, then the base can be with a pink tone, and if dark - with a warm peach.
The foundation should be fluid, very light and barely noticeable, this is really important. For light-skinned people, a grayish tone is the best shade, but a beige tone is best for olive skin. If you belong to a low-contrast winter, then you can choose a cream of a beige shade, but with all this, yellowness should not be present.
Powder and blush
Powder, in turn, should almost completely match the tone of the foundation itself, it can be either transparent or completely colorless. If the skin is dark, then you can choose a beige tone powder with a small splash of gray.
If you need to make an evening or festive make-up, then the powder can be with a slight shimmery silver effect, but you should not choose a bronze sheen.
Winter girls and women can use blush in their makeup, but they should definitely be cold shades, for example, pink or lilac. But you need to apply them very carefully, only emphasizing the cheekbones, and not applying them directly to the entire surface of the cheek.
Eyeshadow
The eyeshadow that you will be using should also only be in cool shades. But still, despite this, they should be rich and sometimes even intense. It is necessary to use such colors and tones carefully and skillfully; make-up should always look neat, stylish, elegant, to some extent even simple. But it is this simplicity that will give your image a special charm and charm.
Pay attention to colors such as dark green, black, white, gray, dark purple, dark blue, icy pink, silver. The colors of lemon, lilac and anthracite will help to emphasize the eyes and make the look more expressive.
Mascara, eyeliner
If we talk about the color of mascara for the eyes, then the ideal option would be just pure black, charcoal mascara, with its help you can make your eyes brighter, and your gaze will be open. It is also best to choose an eyeliner only in black or very dark versions, for example, it can be dark brown, chocolate.
Lipstick or lip gloss
The tone of lipstick or gloss should always be clean and bright, this is how you can emphasize all your beauty and charm.Try to avoid colors such as scarlet, peach and other pastel shades, they will only ruin the whole look. Take a closer look at such lipstick colors and colors as purple, fuchsia, blood red, raspberry, dark purple, lilac.
A lip liner will help to emphasize the line of the lips and make them larger in volume; it should always be about one or two shades darker than the main color of lipstick or gloss.
Color in clothes
"Winter" women are, without exaggeration, femme fatale, no matter what subtype they belong to. They are irresistible in red, black, white, turquoise, emerald. The more contrasting and bolder the color, the more likely it will suit the "winter" young lady.
Pastel, muted, soft and even tones and midtones are best left for representatives of other color types. They "steal" the beauty of the woman - "Winter". She will look stunning with a scarlet, dark cherry, ruby outfit. "Winter" can safely wear things of the blue spectrum, all variations of gray, including "metallic".
Brown "Winter" should be worn very carefully so as not to miss the tint - only cold tones are suitable for this color type, and therefore dark chocolate will be quite appropriate, and the color of cocoa or "milk chocolate" will spoil the impression of a bright and beautiful woman.
"Winter" is one of the few color types that suits the office style very well. The combination of black and white - gives the "winter" beauty of mystery and mysticism.
We create an image
It is much easier to create an image for a woman - "Winter" than for representatives of other color types. After all, these beautiful, spectacular women can easily adhere to the classic style of clothing, and experiment with extravagant models.
Stylists recommend forming the basic wardrobe of a "winter" lady with a classic approach to the issue. Black and white can make a great base for everything else.
You can supplement them with any bright color. The eyes and hair of "Winter" will be accentuated by burgundy, rowan, azure, emerald shades. If "Winter" chooses gray and its shades, it will emphasize its status in society.
Zima's capsule wardrobe should be bright and cold at the same time. Intense pink, delicate lilac, incredible indigo, purple, lingonberry, silver. All these colors and shades, which representatives of other color types can only dream of, must be in the arsenal of "Zima".
Office style for a woman - "Winter" can be created easily and naturally. It is an ageless black and white classic, blue and dark chocolate. Ties and suspenders perfectly "fit" into the image of a business lady.
From the many options for outerwear, it is better to opt for seasonal coats. Jackets and down-padded coats "Zimam" are also suitable, but the lady in them will no longer be so elegant.
Winter's summer wardrobe can also be built on a white base. A "winter" girl can afford neon shades in summer light clothes. What she cannot afford is a romantic style with an abundance of ruffles and "flying" lines. And also pastel shades. "Winter" will also fade if she dresses in all denim.
Accessories should be chosen with a cold "winter" approach that is already understandable to us. Decorations should be bright and noticeable. Rhinestones of various sizes are ideal for this color type, from small placers to large stones, diamonds, gold, diamonds.
If jewelry, then discreet, with an abundance of beads, glass "icy" shade. The size of the jewelry should be medium.
It will be ideal if the frame for the glasses is made of black, white or silver metal or plastic. It's just great if a modest frame is complemented by one "flashy" bright element. Frames for glasses, both ordinary and sunglasses, must be expressive.
It is better to choose a bag or a scarf in the colors of the basic collection "Winter".The preferred materials are tough and textured leather. It is better to completely refuse formless and romantic models of handbags made of fabric, suede, jeans.
Shoes can be any, the only exception is brown shoes. She is not suitable for "Zimushki". The type of heel recommended for “winter” ones is a stiletto heel.
"Winters" are very good hats. Moreover, the choice of hats for this color type is extremely wide - it can be hats with large brims and "pills". A woman - "Winter" can experiment as much as she likes with scarves, stoles.
The main thing is not to forget about the "correct" color scheme, recommended by stylists and image makers for "winter" people.
What hair color and hairstyle is suitable
To determine which hair color will be ideal for a particular case, it is important to understand whether you are referring to a contrasting or non-contrasting winter.
So, image makers advise bright, clean, contrasting, northern and classic winters to sincerely enjoy their cold shade of hair, because even gray hair will suit them. If hair dye is still needed, choose tones close to natural color, darker or brighter by tone.
Warm shades such as red should be discarded altogether, because they will forgive and drown out the bright accents of a winter girl's appearance. Ladies of a respectable age are advised to take a closer look at the ash blonde, which gives the owner youth and freshness.
A hairstyle for a contrasting winter should be selected not only depending on the color type, but also be consistent with the oval of the face and other features of the appearance.
As generalized recommendations for a clean winter, stylists advise:
- hair of the same length;
- straight, torn and oblique bangs;
- tight curls;
- hair pulled into a ponytail or neat bun.
Experts do not recommend messy hairstyles or disheveled, albeit on purpose, hair. Any carelessness does not suit the owner of the Snow Queen's appearance.
Low contrast, dark or warm winters also have cool hair tones. It can be emphasized by toning a strand in a cold tone similar in shade.
The dark chocolate color palette will add hotness and at the same time softness to a dark-skinned beauty. Not the most successful solution for a low-contrast winter would be repainting in blond, even if it is ashy. However, chestnut with a slight shade of gray will add a zest to a warm winter.
Loose hair is suitable as a hairstyle for southern and other types of low-contrast winter, because by nature they are characterized by the density and thickness of each strand. If the volume of hair does not meet expectations, feel free to choose short haircuts in the form of a false bob or collect your hair back.
Capsule wardrobe for winter color type
A capsule wardrobe is called a system of clothes, consisting of 6-8 items, sometimes more, which are ideally combined with each other and allow you to create more than 10 images. Winter girls should not pay attention to frivolous ruffles and bows, the best option is an elegant classic or dramatic extravagance. Fortunately, the winter color palette allows for this.
The basic wardrobe suggests creating the winter color type, based not on the pretentiousness of the style, but on the texture of the fabric and its rich noble color scheme:
- Your collection should be supplemented by clothes made of tweed, silk, velvet, cashmere, suede, leather.
- Winter is adorned with sleek fabrics and glittery materials, embellished with geometric prints.
- For a sport-chic style, let's say an animalistic drawing.
- Solid sheath dresses, tight skirts that accentuate the seductive outlines of the figure, business trousers are chosen in classic colors.
- A bright accent creates an expressive top (blouses, shirts, T-shirts, sweatshirts) in a rich tone - raspberry, turquoise, emerald.
- Winter girls face a white and black image, but it is better to use a scarf or scarf of a beautiful cold color near the face.
Color type Winter in men
Men are characterized by the same features of appearance as women. If we are talking about the skin, then its shade is either very light with a bluish or pinkish cold undertone, or olive cold.
The color of the iris of the eyes can be dark brown, gray-blue, gray, deep blue or green. Hair is black or dark brown with ashy.
In the wardrobe of such men, black clothes often predominate, which suits them very much. But you should not choose exclusively black, add clothes in a contrasting white, ice blue or light gray. It goes well with black bright red or burgundy color, graphite tones, as well as lilac, purple and pale blue. Warm yellows and oranges, pastels should be avoided.
