Your Tranquil Questions, Answered
Fiona's Insight
Tranquil clients often feel invisible in soft colours, so they overcorrect with bold ones. Soft is not boring on you. It's what lets your face be the focus.
Tranquil FAQs
Is Tranquil warm or cool?
Cool, light and soft.
Can Tranquil wear black?
Soft charcoal is your black. Black itself is too strong.
What's the difference between Tranquil and Sublime?
Tranquil is led by lightness: think platinum or light blonde hair and fair, porcelain skin. Sublime is led by coolness and softness, and suits slightly deeper colouring, such as light ash brown hair and medium beige skin.
