Colours

Hopefully by now, all you guys and ladies know your figure types and if not-you can always refer to the previous post.

In this post, I would like to share with you some terminology of colours. It is important to know these terms and which colours are suitable for us.



Primary colours: By definition, you can’t mix these colours. They are Red, Yellow and Blue.

Secondary colours-Mix Yellow with Red to obtain Orange, Blue with Red to get Purple and lastly, Yellow with Blue to get Green.

Complimentary Colours
Complimentary Colours refer to colours that are directly opposite each other (e.g. Green is the complimentary colour for Red and vice versa). Understanding this, you will know what are the complimentary colours for Blue and Yellow.

Colour Terms

Hue-Layman term also known as Colour. It actually refers to the colour in its purest form without mixing white, black or grey (e.g. Yellow).

Shade-Mix yellow with black to get darker yellow. Black is often add to colours to obtain darker shades.

Tint-Mix white with colours to get lighter colour (e.g. Mix white with pink to get baby pink).
