8 Basic Colors

From the book "The color of Style" by David Zyla.

Your have 8 basic colors. 
Here is what they are and how to find them.

There are 5 colors that express who you are:
Your Essence Color: Your vulnerable color; your version of white, a skin tone that harmonizes the colors in the palm of your hand
Your Romantic Color: Your passion color; your version of red found by gently pinching a fingertip- or the color of your blushing face
Your Dramatic Color: Your "look at me" color; your version of blue, found in the color of veins in your wrist
Your Energy Color: The color that supports you when you need a pick-me-up, taken from the darkest part of your iris (but not the ring around the iris)
Your Tranquil Color: Your peaceful color, taken from the lightest part of your iris

3 neutral colors that complete your wardrobe basics:

Your Version of Black: the most flattering dark color for you, taken from the ring around your iris
Your Version of Brown: A more casual, medium-dark shade, taken from the darkest part of your hair
Your Version of Khaki: Your best light color, taken from the lightest part of your hair.
