CHAPTER TWO
COLOUR THEORY & CORRECTION
Mastering makeup artistry begins with understanding colour theory. There are primary colours, secondary colours, and tertiary colours.
PRIMARY COLOURS
These are Red, Yellow, and Blue. They can never be created by mixing other colours. These are the main colours that you will find in skin undertones.
SECONDARY COLOURS
These are colours that are created by mixing a primary colour with another primary colour. For example, mixing red and yellow creates orange.
TERTIARY COLOURS
These are the colours that are created by mixing a primary colour with an adjacent secondary colour. For example, mixing red and orange creates a tertiary colour.
