Whether we recognize or not, most of us consider fairer is beautiful. I feel this could be true even psychologically. In a fair skined person, their features like eye-brows, eyes, mouth are lot more visible because of the contrast. Since it is more visible, we can easily understand the expression of the person. Thus it will be easier for one to communicate or socialize with that person.
I am thinking about what are the color schemes that is suitable for each skin tone and what is the theory behind that.
Contrast theory. For a human eye certian amount of contrast is most liked. When a dark person with very less contrast with his face and hair, is not considered beautiful, scandinavian with black-colored hair is also not liked very much because of too much contrast.
Since a fairer person's face color scheme is more contrast based, his dress with more contrast will be good for him. For dark skinned person, his face scheme is not contrast based. So he must use sub-dued colors to go with that scheme.
When a specific color is being used for the shirt, that color temperature gets added to the face. A dark skinned person should use higher color temperatore of yellow as the base. The tone of yellow can change from peech to orange to yellow to green to white - all with 50% saturation and 70% brightness. With the same thoery, blue should be avoided, since it does not have any yellow.
This is abysmal kitsch, or to speak plainly, just SHIT. Due to the popularity of the Internet, nowadays anyone can write some crap and get it published in the web. Wonder how an REC, IIT educated person can stoop to this level of absurdity. Seems education doesn't guarantee anything apart from certificates.
ReplyDeleteThis post doesn't deserve a verbatim reply, but I would like to know how you concluded that the expressions on a fair skinned person's face is more visible than a dark skinned one's. Then all the best actors shud b fair skinned since "In a fair skined person, their features like eye-brows, eyes, mouth are lot more visible because of the contrast. Since it is more visible, we can easily understand the expression of the person". And when you say "it will be easier for one to communicate or socialize with that(fair skinned) person", I seriously doubt your sanity.
Those tips to look good according to your contrast theory, the beauty tips in 'MA' publications like Vanitha, Grihalakshmi are far more better than this.
Btw, how did you reach this theoty Cibi? Did you really work your brains on it??
