a color analysis will guide you on your best colors for your hair makeup
clothing and accessories and once you have your color analysis results whether
it be online or offline you'll usually have some sort of color reference to
take with you shopping it may be a swatch wallet a color strip or you can
even use now my new shopping my colors phone app which is free in this video
I'm gonna guide you on how to use your color reference when you're out and
about shopping for clothing jewelry and makeup it's absolutely impossible for a
color reference to include all the color combinations you could experience when
you're out shopping I'm talking about undertones value and intensity
combinations here so your color reference truly is just a guide when
you're out shopping so without further ado let me jump into a scenario with you
buying a piece of clothing so let's say you wanted to buy this blue shirt what
you would do is take your color reference and I'm using a true summer
wallet as my reference in this video but you can definitely use your color strip
or the phone app so what you would do is take the blue shirt that you're
contemplating and hold it up to your wallet on the blue page and ask yourself
if it looks like it's in the same family and as you can see this blue is not it's
actually a true spring blue that I'm using as the reference but when I flip
to a blue that isn't my color palette and open up to the blue page once again
you'll see that the blue is very much in harmony with the color reference and I
would say by this blue it will make you Sparkle so that's the scenario for
clothing for jewelry let's say I was looking at buying this gemstone I would
hold it up to my color raw friend so I'm flipping to the smoky gray page I
would hold it up to the reference and there's a few references actually that I
could use here whoops and I would ask myself if it looks like it's in harmony
and it is and so I would definitely buy this gemstone if it fit me saw style
wise in terms of makeup when you're out makeup shopping so for eyeshadows
eyeliners mascaras blush and eyebrow makeup I would use your color reference
again as a guide to isolate colors that are in harmony with you and once you
land on a color you want to test out what you would do is take the tester and
dust it once on the top of your hand or dust it a couple times and compare it to
your color reference I'm just holding up a color strip here and if the color
peirong on your hand is in harmony with your reference I would say buy it
I find makeup in containers is very much different in terms of color than when
it's applied to your skin so you always want to compare the tester on your skin
to your color reference for lip colors what you do is take the lip color and
dust it once on your fingertip and compare it to your color reference or
swatch wallet whatever you're using and make sure the color pairing on your
fingertip is a match to your reference so fingertip is most in harmony with the
color of your lips so there you go there are steps to use your color reference
when you're out and about shopping for clothing jewelry and makeup I hope this
video helps guide you happy shopping
