Bright vs. Soft: Why Different Versions of the Same Color May Not Work on You

Chroma refers to the clarity or softness of a color, and it plays a major role in how a color interacts with your natural features.

  • Bright chroma = vivid, clear, pure, and energetic.

  • Soft chroma = muted, dusty, “dirty,” or less clear.

You can have two versions of the same color—say, a bright turquoise and a soft seafoam—and one might make you look radiant while the other makes you look tired.
