Ever wonder why some people always look glowing and radiant? These people know the secret of wearing the right color palette for their skin type. If you are a deep winter, a dark winter skin tone color palette is essential for your wardrobe.
Since I’m a deep winter, I’m sharing my go-to colors from the dark winter color palette. Once you know how to use the right colors for your skin tone, your wardrobe will never be the same!
What is a Dark Winter Skin Tone Color Palette?
A dark winter skin tone color palette contains colors that are in harmony with people who fall into the “dark” or “deep” winter skin color palette. These colors are jewel tone family and well as icy pastels.
Who Has a Dark Winter Skin Tone Color Palette?
If you have a “cool” undertone in your skin and have dark hair with light to dark skin, you fall into the dark winter skin color palette. Some dark winters may have an “olive” or neutral undertone and they may borrow from some of the autumn color palettes
What Colors Look Best on Dark Winter?
Deep jewel colors look best on dark winters since there is a deepness and “intenseness” to their features. Icy pastels also complement dark winters and provide a nice lift of light and airiness to the wardrobe while keeping true dark winter “coolness” in the undertone. Since dark winters have a cool undertone, they should wear colors that have a “blue” undertone. Think Christmas colors!
What Colors Should Dark Winters Avoid?
Dark winters have an intense, deep and smoky appearance. They should avoid very bright and loud colors as well as very light and faint colors. These colors may “wash them out”.
Since dark winters have a “cool” undertone” they should avoid warm colors that have an orange base.
Benefits of Wearing the Correct Color Palette
Wearing the right colors for your undertone can make you look youthful and vibrant. Wearing the wrong colors for our undertone will make you look older, sickly and even enhance shadows and wrinkles!
Deep or “dark” winters must wear the right color palette to enhance their natural features. Jewel tones and icy pastels will make dark winter’s eyes pop and skin glow. These colors will even bring ou natural highlights in your hair!
Dark Winter Wardrobe Essentials
As a dark winter myself, my capsule wardrobe has some key basics that are in the dark winter color palette. Since we want to focus on the colors around the face, it’s important to get the right color of tops and accessories that are close to your face. Here are some of my go to dark winter color palette wardrobe items:
A Hunter Green Sweater
A hunter green sweater is the perfect color for dark winters. It brings out the brown highlights in the hair and eyes.

Heather grey is the perfect basic t-shirt color for deep winters as it has a cool tone.
Amethyst Earrings
Any jewel tone jewelry will work if you are a dark winter skin tone beauty. Amethyst can highlight your eyes and complexion.

A sapphire necklace always enhances the complexion of deep winters.
Can dark winters wear gold? Absolutely! Since dark winters can have olive or neutral complexions, they look good in gold and silver jewelry!
Deep Winter Color Palette Beauty
If you are a dark or “deep” winter, you have a cool or olive undertone. Your dark hair and dark eyes may be in high contrast to your skin tone or you may even have a darker complexion. Wearing jewel tone and icy pastels are the best color palette for your wardrobe.
