Absolute/True Winter
Red lipsticks go with your neutrals.  You might want a deeper option also.  You can wear a lot of contrast in your makeup, like your clothing, matching your body contrast.  Blush should match lipstick, so choose a clear red or a red-violet.  Dark eye shadows go with your dark fan colors, in blue, gray with a frosty or icy white or pink accent.  Eyeliner in gray, navy blue or dark brown. Try a deep burgundy lip liner.    Black mascara.

Sunset Winter (or Dark Winter)
Wear maroon lipstick to go with probable red highlights in your hair.  If you are wearing cooler colors, try a frosted red-violet lipstick.  Your lipstick and blush should go with your romantic color (found when you pinch your finger tip).  If you are wearing warmer colors, try a red brown lipstick.    Wear mulberry blush, not pure reds. Green and turquoise eyeshadow may be good unless they bring out orange tones in hair.  Instead, you might wear maroon or gray with a touch of blue, brown and light gray, also perhaps lavender, in frosted or pearlized versions.  Use dark brown or gray eyeliner, or dark silver.

Patrician Winter (who have gone silver)

Choose a lipstick to balance the intensity of your hair, red or burgundy for instance.  A medium pink lipstick might also work, but stay away from mauve or brownish pink. You are no longer in harmony with brown unless you have brown eyes.  Eyeshadow in blue, red-violet, gray and silver.  Smoke gray color eyeliner, not black.
