How to wear Teal for Winters

Of all the seasons, your range of teals is perhaps the narrowest. Only the very boldest teals work with your skintone and high contrast palette - none of those subdued soft versions here, thank you very much.

Although teal might not be a shade you turn to in the early weeks and months after colour analysis, over time some of the less obvious Winter shades get some attention as you get bolder with your palette and colour combining; acid yellow, boldest teal and mole grey can all start to become a little more intriguing once you've cut your teeth on cobalt and fuchsia.

Your teal is, above all, a more intense, deeper shade than the other palettes might wear, and usually at the darker end of the spectrum. It tends to fall either at the very bluey end of teal, almost a navy shade, or at the very greenest end, where it slips into pine green. In between fall a whole load of shades which belong to the warmer seasons.

Teal falls right on the warmest 'edge' of your palette, so pull it into place by pairing it with high contrast white and a true Winter neutral, or go for broke with a bolder shade from your palette and maximum contrast.
