Lime greens are often mixed with yellows so it makes the perfect accents for golden locked brides.

Red heads should strongly consider green as their color accent, and the deeper the better. Find a tone in olive, emerald or forest green. Red hair needs a strong color to stand up to it and these dark shades of green offer the perfect accent so you won't feel washed out.

Those with darker skin complexions should try on pale or pastel greens in mint, sage or celadon. This lighter tones will provide a vivid contrast to your skin to create a dramatic effect.
