Very fashionable in recent seasons, khaki adds character to an outfit, but it can make features appear harsh if it lacks brightness. Some complexions then appear a little dull, as if the color absorbs the light. A simple solution is to opt for fresher greens: sage, light olive, or emerald green, which immediately add depth and radiance.
Neon colors: full of energy… sometimes too much
Why can certain colors make the complexion look dull after age 50?
As the years go by, we sometimes notice that shades that previously suited us perfectly suddenly seem to dull our radiance. Nothing to worry about: each color reflects a different light onto the face. When the chosen shade lacks softness or warmth, it can create too stark a contrast or, conversely, flatten our features. Hence the impression of looking tired.
The good news? By slightly adjusting your palette, you can instantly achieve a fresher complexion, as if after a walk by the sea.
