    A note to my fellow painters and color experts who watch this and think, “but tint! tone! shade! hue! brightness!” - Yes. But I’m not here to flex on all the fancy words I know. I’m trying to make color something that is approachable to everyone. For the sake of simplicity, I’m taking more of a “hue + value = saturation” approach. Color theory in painting is a vast world, but a lot of it is totally unnecessary (and alienating) when it translates to making makeup easier and more fun to use. Thanks for understanding :)

    • @justilou1
      @justilou1 Před 3 dny +6

      The pale blue side looks so much like my mother’s late 6o’s wedding look. (She also had virtually identical colouring - but very ice-blue eyes - ergo even more desaturated.) I don’t think she evolved from that makeup look until the late 90’s when she discovered shocking pink lipstick.

    • @kerrythomson1105
      @kerrythomson1105 Před dnem +1

      It’s wild that my understanding of all of this comes from a place of failure. Neck match? Never heard of her. Redness? Stop Sign Realness from the neck up. It’s never been a case where I applied something and went “Oh holy shit that’s magnificent. My taxes are paid and my library books have been returned. Ethereal.”

      I was going to comment the same. I have yet to watch another creator who delves this deep and teaches. As with finding jeans, it is so hard trying to get your foundation to match your face and then all of the other products must mesh too. There are days when I just wash the makeup off and say f* it. I have learned so much in this video- Appreciate the time and care you put into these videos

      Kackie is here giving away gold for free. I've been playing her older videos of straight make-up reviews. And they're fun and helpful because I know better where not to spend, and what's worth looking into (and seeing if it's available in Germany - often not the case).

    The content you’re dropping differentiates your channel from other beauty content creators. Not only do you encourage us to wear what we love, but you’re providing us the tools to make it work!! As a fellow desaturated girl, finding my “filler” color to wear high contrast colors has changed my blush game in particular!

  • @FishareFriendsNotFood972
    @FishareFriendsNotFood972 Před 4 dny +38

    I actually really like both sides, but for different reasons. The bold eye takes all the focus and nails that 'sultry French girl eye' thing of just one area of focus. And the pastel side is a more balanced 'friendly' face that is great for a summer picnic. Love them both!

    AH! I'm so excited to watch this!!! I'm taking notes! I've always thought orange looked TERRIBLE on me because everything turns orange on me due to my olive undertone and how pale I am.

  • @renematz1138
    @renematz1138 Před 3 dny +22

    Also, any lipstick/ balm swatches (the less opaque ones...) are useless to me, since my native lip color will always create a different effect. Finally, someone (uh, you) addresses that concept. You are an amazing educator!!

    • @limperatrice
      @limperatrice Před 2 dny +2

      Yeah I never thought about the way my natural pigmentation affected the way lip color appeared on me until my redhead friend borrowed my Burts Bees tinted lip balm, which barely looks like anything on me, but was a very obvious sheer red on her lips!

  • @renematz1138
    @renematz1138 Před 3 dny +39

    Just had my AHA moment! I never understood how greenish tones can cover redness (or cancel it out) when warm red or terracotta tones on my eyes make my green eyes pop. You explained the concept of the colors over themselves creating a beige, but placed next to eachother, having a completely different effect! Thank you!

  • @rebekahcreates

    @Dan_Chiron Před 3 dny +7

    Brownie girl here 🙋‍♀(7N in Charlotte Tilbury longwear foundation). Thank you! Today I learned that my skin is actually quite translucent. I couldn't figure out how people of my same skin color were able to use 1 or 2 pumps of foundation when I'm good to go with only a half of a pump. Also now I understand why, as much as I love Patrick Ta blush formulas, they look too darn pigmented on my cheeks: it's because they're too opaque (and too saturated); that's the same reason why I can get away with very light sandy-pink blushes that aren't supposed to be noticeable over my skintone.

  • @jessicalenzo4116
    @jessicalenzo4116 Před 2 dny +8

    Hi! I’m so loving all the color theory content!!
    Idea/request: can you delve more into the “filling in the other shades so it looks less hollow” concept? I understand the basic hair dyeing concept, but would love some more demos on the skin like showing if the perceived cheek color actually changes when you fill in the other colors, how you know what shade to fill in, how you know it looks hollow, anything else you think would be helpful. Thank you thank you!🙏🏼❤️❤️

  • @fbmbassist
    @fbmbassist Před 2 dny +6

    This is also what color analysis does--it finds the best version of each color that looks great on a person in the same way that you have done it--by changing the saturation (muted is autumn and summer; bright is spring and winter), temperature, and lightness/darkness (how much black or white it contains). It doesn't say you can't wear a color, but that there are better versions of that color for each person's coloring. What I don't like about color analysis is that even 16 categories isn't enough, because I think that olive people fall somewhere in the middle.
    So everyone can wear hot pink--but the hot pink on a Winter person will have a touch of blue, the hot pink for Spring will be more like a hot red-coral-pink, Summer will be a muted hot pink with touch of blue, and Autumn would be muted hot red-pink...maybe like a bright sangria (it's all just relative contrasts).

  • @jessiecarter4227

    Aaaand the penny finally dropped for me on why me trying for so many years to use full coverage foundation to cover my acne, rosacea, etc. never worked! It looked bizarre next to my extremely translucent other visible skin (hands, chest). Art math genius to the rescue! I'm gonna go buy a desaturated skin tint 😂❤

  • @mixchixbeauty2492

    The upside of blue eyeshadow on you is that it pulls the warm tones out of your eye color! Your eyes look so striking

  • @throughcolouredglasses9300

    Holy SHIT the saturation demonstration on the foundation just explained why I've never found a foundation to match me. I am pale and low contrast and foundation not only usually doesn't go light enough, even the tones that are light enough or even too pale just pull too pink or yellow/orange! I simply need a more mid, muted, less contrasting shade for my skin. ..."simply" meaning i know i won't find any in the drugstore and i don't care enough about make up to want to pay over 10€ for foundation lol...

    The royal blue side gives off strong magician vibes and the pastel one gives fairy vibes both look so pretty 💙🩵
    I think your freckles actually boost the look and that both lip combos would have worked on either side because the balance out the cool eyes. Either way I love your videos because even though I don't use much makeup colour theory is handy in loads of things, including outfits and well painting. Thank you for doing this series!

    This is absolutely fantastic. I'm a graphic designer and certified color management professional at work, but somehow I always feel too familiar with my own face to identify these things and kinda get lost in feeling like something isn't "me". This put into words all of the principles I already knew, but applied them to this other world that I'm less skilled in. Thank you!

    @sebumpostmortem Před 3 dny +3

    About saturation: while you are watching a TV show, a film, you name it... with a considerable amount of actors from different ethnicities, it' s the moment to try and understand it. Change the screen settings and low "color" or "saturation". They all become desaturated but they are still, proportionally, as dark or light skinned than before, it doesn' t change. Chicago Fire would be a nice cast to play with. Hope it helps.

    I've been wanting to do a declutter and refocus my collection on products I'm actually going to wear and this series has been SO HELPFUL in decision making!! I'm think now not in terms of "do I like it?" alone, but "how many opaque products like this also I need?" "How much contrast does this offer??" - it's really helped me recognize the value in holding on to something I might only use a few times a month, but are really critical to that particular look while also seeing the value in considering other factors than tone or shade. Thank you!!!

You are real and unhinged and sophisticated and just lovely and kind all in one. I’ve been struggling with an illness where I can’t really get out and do all the things I want to do, so instead I have literally been going back and watching/rewatching alllllll the Kackie videos.

    @ZackRekeSkjell Před 3 dny +1

    Very interesting video! This explains my makeup preferences and I think it will make it clearer to me what products will not work for me before buying. I prefer products with less opacity and high opacity has always made me feel clownish, but I’m still a fan of blue eyeshadow. I’ve realised why it works is because I wear shadows that are pretty much see through and broken with a lot of white. My skin then comes through and as I’m cold tone it doesn’t turn green. Great demonstration!

  • @kerrythomson1105

    I struggle with having freckles, and some redness, but also don’t want a super opaque base. I’m very desaturated - like translucent baby fish level translucent. I do like the Erborian green color corrector to help resolve some redness before I go in with any foundation, but I feel like I’m always fighting SOMETHING.

    I love both sides, too. The deeper saturation for a more elegant nighttime look and the less saturated side for a daytime, fun look. I have opposing colors in my eyes. It makes it really hard to figure out what colors to place next to them. I have given up on color and just do neutrals now.

  • @northwoodfalls1403
    @northwoodfalls1403 Před dnem +1

    Ok, I am going to have to watch this a few more times. My brain is super excited and buzzing lol. I, like just about every other woman with access to the internet, have been delving into all the buzz around colour seasons. It’s led to a rabbit hole of the science of both skin melanin and the very nature of light and colour and pigments …. It’s left me with this vague idea that all the colour season analysis systems out there are missing very important details and it’s all circling around what you are demonstrating here. I’m for sure some version of a “bright” and temperature doesn’t really seem to matter much at all. I have some degree of contrast (for sure going to that video of yours next 😃) but the contrast seems to be more about how much contrast of “bright” colours I need rather than just the way my features contrast (like hair, eyes, skin tone, eyebrows) or don’t. There is something about my skin and hair that isn’t immediately obvious that requires a lot of reflective quality in colours I wear to look harmonious. I haven’t solidified what’s going on there yet but I’m closing in on it and THIS information is tickling my brain big time. I think you just told me why it is that I often reach for my lipsticks to use on my eyes and cheeks rather than the slew of eyeshadows and blushes I have. I have so many of the “right” colours but they often just look “meh”. They aren’t giving me what I’m looking for and I think I now know why!! Also explains why I gravitate towards any kind of glowy foundation rather than the matte or heavier coverage ones, even when the fuller coverage ones are, technically, a “match” for my tone and undertone and temp, etc. GAAA !!! There are so many beauty content creators that would benefit from seeing this, especially the olive toned ones out there who are forever struggling to find good options. Thank you !

    Stumbled on this channel and it's an instant subscribe for making videos about color theory. I have some art training and even then I tend to fall in the rut of wearing "safe" or "comfortable" colors for my coloring, but this is a great reminder that there are always ways to make any color work for you

    This is excellent and I truly wish more beauty reviewers who do make a living creating content would invest more in their skills/vocab in precisely assessing/describing color & opacity & finish/etc. One thing that can be confusing is how the same person will call a color relatively “warm” because it is further away from blue hues and will call another warm because it is more desaturated (even though it may be closer to blue). For the purposes of communicating color, that just not helpful on its own.

      Oh it's so true. And even I get tripped up talking about a group of colors being cool like an eyeshadow palette being an overall cool palette VERSUS the reality which is that they're cool *compared* to other things we recognize as warm or neutral 😂 so it's like an excel circular reference warning.

    The very thought of opening up the world of colour makes me want to run and hide in a (neutral, brown, taupe) corner. Watching this video in fear and trepidation …

    Keep this kinda content coming!! Been wanting to learn more about color theory in makeip lately - so this is perfect. Been trying to psyche myself up to wear a bright red lipstick - never have before. But I’ll wear ALL the color on my eyes. Keep em coming ❤

  • @yensid4294

    This clearly & in a more theoretical way explains why I always liked a more matte finish & medium covereage in my facial cosmetics (satin is good too). I'm fair & transluscent & every vein, old scar, etc shows. I was way more a powder complexion product person until recently & then age (I'm 64) just made powders not look great anymore. I prefer cream formulas that dry down to a powder finish now & aren't too sheer. I do like a serumy foundation but always use a concealer under layer due to redness. (Sometimes I just wear concealer blended out as foundation & don't bother with foundation at all) I'm experimenting with liquid blushes but usually add a powder blush on top if I'm being honest to get that opacity. Lip products are the exact opposite, I want sheerness. My lips have a lot of natural pigmentation & I like a pop of sheer but bright color there. Sometimes a clear gloss is actually enough unless I want to change the color of my lips. Eye makeup is a neutral matte sculpt (hooded eyes) with a sheer shimmer on the inner 3rd of the mobile lid. Never realized how specific my opacity preferences were before now lol. I do a lot of layering & mixing to get the colors, textures & finishes I want. Gloss over matte, matte over gloss etc. I am also a traditionally trained artist & painter with a graphic design background. I love your content 😊

    Thank you for this new direction you are taking us in. I am learning so much and it’s great having such a great teacher who is Sharing her knowledge ❤.

  • @bags_books_and_bowwows

    This video is really helping me understand my recent preference for low-opacity high-saturation color cosmetics. My makeup personality is distinctly low-key, but my pigmented lips and dark eyebrows put me in the high-contrast camp. The usual "no makeup makeup" pallette ends up looking like a muddy disaster on me.

    For someone who really has struggled with the color theory of make up, these videos are so amazing. They’re also super relaxing for some reason. Perfect for my 3-4 AM newborn feedings. 😂❤

    @Maggie-se4yk Před 3 dny +2

    When you release your “Perfect Bedroom Brown” eyeshadow palette (we all know it’s going to happen😉), can it please be based on this video? It would be so cool to see a palette that is the saturated and desaturated of the colors. If anyone can do a bedroom eyes palette like this, it’s you Kackie! Using color theory to select my makeup has been a game changer!

    They do both look SO good on you! This visual demo was AMAZING! You are killing it with these explanations. I would love to see this go into fashion. What would you wear with these looks etc. I am loving these. p.s. Coral/peach and Blue of any saturation /opacity, saturation is one of the color combos I never wore before I "met you" xoxo💙

    1. I could never draw portraits until i got into makeup (the 2016 glam) and suddenly I was able to understand how to make skin tones out of watercolor, where to add pink, where to add shadow, what shades to use for shadow so I love art + makeup combos!!
    2. NC44 and VERY TRANSLUCENT skin!! My veins do be veining more than my NC30 mom 😂😂😂

  • @cs-yq5ed

    Both look good, but I definitely liked the High Saturation side. That cobalt blue really enhances your eye color.
