Best color combinations for Indian skin tones

1. Cobalt blue + White

Cobalt blue brightens up the face like no other color- compliment it with white and you have got yourself the perfect outfit


Cobalt is considered a clean blue - which means it is neither warm or cool, therefore rendering it attractive on everyone!As blues go, cobalt is one that walks the fine line - it makes a statement but is not too brash, so it’s great for those that are color shy.Cobalt literally works with almost every other color. Black, navy, camel, grey, white, orange, green and all other shades of blue as well.




2. Green/ Emerald green


Colors that are either brighter or lighter than your skin tone look the best and so green looks great on Indian skin. Contrast it with black bag and sandals for a sofistticated look.

We Indians are obsessed with the regal lifestyle and fashion. If there was one shade that was the utter favourite of most royalties in India, then it has to be emerald green. Not only for the pieces of jewellery, but the shade was used to elevate the look of the attires. This colour also goes perfectly with all the Indian skin tones. Given the gold yellowish undertone most of us have, emerald green happens to suit us perfectly.


3. Mustard


Another color that compliments warmer, wheatish and dusky tone is mustard. Mustard and beige is the classic combo and will never disappoint

Perfect those Sunday brunches Mustard Yellow is considered an auspicious shade for Hindus in Indian. Whenever there is a holy occasion, almost everyone tries to wear yellow at one point of the other. And we think this is for all the right reasons, as mustard yellow seems such a perfect shade. Not too dark, and not too light, just amazing to flatter Indian skin tone.
