Fall’s 6 Must-Have Rooted Shades
The word “brown” doesn’t begin to do justice to ENVY’s vibrant variety of brunette shades. From caramel to coffee, lightly toasted to lush chocolate, the best browns are seductive, chic, and fabulously flattering when you find the hue that’s right for you!
- SAFFRON SPICE: This warm light brown with lowlights and just a hint of red will pick up warm skin’s buttery tones and camouflage sallowness. A Great Match for light/medium skin with warm undertones and brown, hazel or green eyes.
- CINNAMON TOFFEE: This warm light brown has a caramel hue best suited to warm complexions. Avoid this shade if your complexion is extremely fair or pink—it’ll clash with your skin. A Great Match for golden complexions and warm brown eyes.
- TOASTED SESAME: This cool light brown with lowlights is especially flattering to fair complexions and light blue or brown eyes—and a great choice for those who don’t like any red or gold in their hair. A Great Match for those whose skin has cool undertones.
- MACHIATTO: A beautiful, rich hue that is neither too ashy or too warm. A Great Match for those with neutral undertones.
- ESPRESSO: This rich neutral-to-cool brown hue lends a sophisticated vibe to skin with cooler undertones. A Great Match for anyone with an olive complexion and brown eyes.
- AMARETTO CREAM: Neutral with highlights, this chic shade will look great on those with both cool and neutral undertones, as it counteracts any hint of ruddiness. A Great Match for light/medium complexions.
Skin Tones vs Undertones
It’s important to know that your undertone isn’t the same as your natural skin tone. Even the fairest skin can have warm undertones, and darker skin can have cool ones. The three traditional undertones are WARM, COOL, and NEUTRAL. Warm undertones range from peach to yellow and golden. Cool undertones include pink and bluish hues. If you have a neutral undertone, this means that your undertones are roughly the same color as your actual skin tone.
Finding the right match for your skin type is key if you want your brown hair color to bring life to your features and flatter your complexion.
