5 colors to avoid after 50: they can dull your glow

The good news? By slightly adjusting your palette, you can instantly achieve a fresher complexion, as if after a walk by the sea.
Black: a safe bet… but not always strategic

We love it: it slims the figure, elevates an outfit, and simplifies our busy mornings. However, worn near the face, black can accentuate natural shadows and make features appear harsher. If you truly love this color—and we understand!—opt for it on the lower half, or soften its intensity with a bright scarf, light-colored jewelry, or subtle makeup.
Navy blue that’s too deep: when elegance lacks brilliance

Dark blue is often considered a “safe” alternative to black… but it can produce a similar effect when it’s highly saturated. The result: the complexion appears less even, less vibrant, as if the light is no longer reflecting properly. To maintain its elegance without losing radiance, opt for brighter blues: royal blue, indigo, peacock blue… true allies for a healthy glow.
