Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To select colors of clothes and a lipstick and their combination which fit a person by dividing a face color to a plurality of groups by an evaluation value based on a visual sense evaluation for a plurality of evaluation items and setting the divided colors as indices. SOLUTION: In order to select colors of clothes and a lipstick which fit a specific person with using a face color as an index, for instance, the examinee is seated at an evaluation booth with a color cloth hung at the breast, while an evaluation person looks at the examinee under predetermined conditions and evaluates step by step for predetermined items related to a face color and a total impression. The face color is cluster analyzed and divided to a plurality of groups on the basis of the evaluation data. With the divided face colors being used as indices, information on a fit color, etc., is obtained for each face color, whereby a color of clothes for the specific person can be selected. Thereafter, how the face color looks when compared with lipstick colors is processed in the same manner, so that a lipstick can be selected. Moreover, the same method is applied to a combination of the color cloth and lipstick color.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to
The present invention relates to a method of selecting a clothing color or lipstick color or a combination of clothing color and lipstick color that suits a specific individual.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, I want to know the color or makeup method that suits myself with respect to cosmetics and clothes such as lipsticks and foundations based on the consciousness of choosing something good for myself, rather than respecting individuality and matching fashion. The desires and demands are increasing. In order to respond to such desires and requests, seminars and lectures for selecting colors or diagnosis and advice of suitable colors are performed in department stores and culture schools. However, the contents are not always satisfactory because the specific reasons and grounds for selecting a suitable color are not clear, or are the dogmatic judgment of a person who diagnoses or advises. This is due to the fact that no color selection method suitable for a particular individual has been established and the information is insufficient. Also, when choosing colors, there are also requests that customers do not necessarily seek only colors that suit themselves, but that they want to try other colors after knowing basic information on colors that suit themselves. . In other words, they also seek methods and information for using colors that do not match.

[0003] When a woman dresses, she generally decides clothes first, makes makeup in accordance with the clothes, and enjoys fashion with accessories and hairstyles. Therefore, when selecting and advising a color suitable for a specific customer at a store for cosmetics such as lipstick and foundation, it is important to propose a makeup color in consideration of the color of clothes. This is to select a color that matches, and is to provide basic color information of a specific individual, but it is also important to provide information for using a color that does not match with a slight contrivance. However, conventionally, there is little information on colors corresponding to specific individuals, and it has been difficult to provide appropriate advice and color information when selecting colors of clothes and makeup.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention does not provide a method for selecting a clothing color or a lipstick color or a combination of a clothing color and a lipstick color suitable for a specific individual by using a complexion as an index. In particular, we study the color of clothes that show beautiful complexion, and the color of lipstick that shows complexion beautifully, aiming to harmonize the color of clothing and lipstick for a specific complexion, and that the color of clothing and color of lipstick Allows the user to select a color that looks beautiful, and if the color of the clothes he / she wants to wear is not a color that looks beautiful on the skin, select a color that can be corrected by the color of the lipstick, or vice versa. An object of the present invention is to enable selection of a lipstick color for wearing a desired color of clothes.

[0005]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. The present invention first uses a color cloth as the color of clothing, evaluates the appearance of the complexion when comparing the complexion with the color cloth, for each of a plurality of evaluation items, and evaluates the complexion based on the evaluation data. Cluster analysis is used to classify clothing into multiple groups.Using the classified complexion as an index, information such as the color of the color cross that makes the complexion look beautiful and the Allows selection of colors and clothing colors that do not suit. Next, a change in the appearance of the complexion when the complexion is viewed in comparison with the color of the lipstick is visually evaluated for a plurality of evaluation items, and the obtained evaluation values are cluster-analyzed and classified into a plurality of groups. By obtaining information such as "color of lipstick that makes a complexion look beautiful" and "color that matches" for each classified complexion, it is possible to select a lipstick color that suits a specific individual or a lipstick color that does not match. Finally, in the combination of the color cloth and the color of the lipstick, visual evaluation is performed for each face color by comparing the lipstick and the color cloth, and the evaluation information on the combination of the color of the lipstick and the color of the clothes is obtained, and specific individuals It is possible to select suitable clothing and lipstick color, and to select lipstick color that can correct unsuitable color lipstick, garment color that can correct unsuitable lipstick, season, living condition, mood, etc. Allows you to select the clothes and lipstick color you want to match.

The obtained color information on the clothes and the lipstick makes it possible to select the color of the lipstick or the clothes to make the complexion look beautiful, the color of the lipstick or the clothes to look healthy, the color of the lipstick or the clothes to match, and the like. Color information to make the complexion look beautiful (appropriate) with the color of the lipstick, and coordination with the color of the clothing to make good use of the color of the lipstick that does not look good Can be considered. Then, select the color of the lipstick that you want to wear while showing the complexion of the color you want to wear, or color information about the coordinates of the lipstick you want to use with the color of the clothing that you want to use while showing the complexion beautifully Can be provided.

The following experiment 1 was conducted in order to collect information on the appearance of a complexion in comparison with the color of clothing. In this experiment 1, "whether the appearance of the complexion has any tendency or characteristic depending on the color of the clothing to be compared"
The purpose of verification was "whether the tendency or the characteristic occurs for each kind of complexion" or "whether there is a difference due to age". FIG. 1 shows the environment and conditions for performing Experiment 1.
The subject (1) washes his / her face, sits down in the evaluation booth (2) with his face untouched, closes his eyes and puts a color cloth (3) on his chest. The hair was tied in a hair band so as not to obstruct the complexion and not be unnatural. The evaluator (4) looked at the position about 2 meters away from the subject and performed a five-level evaluation on 17 items relating to the complexion and overall impression. The experimental space is illuminated by a fluorescent lamp (5) for D50 color evaluation, and the subject (1) has a face illuminance of 400 lux and a desk top illuminance of 900.
Lux. In order to know whether or not the appearance of the complexion by color contrast with the color cross shows a tendency for every complexion classification, it is necessary to give the subject's complexion a variation. Thus, first, the visual evaluation of 160 complexions was performed by three skilled persons, and the subjects who were in their twenties were able to recognize the complexions of the three subjects in common, and to be able to compose variations of complexions such as fair to black, reddish, and yellowish. 23 women, 1 in their 50s
Five subjects were selected as subjects.

In order to clarify the tendency of the appearance of the complexion by the color contrast, it is possible to make a comparison with many regular colors,
In addition, in consideration of the area effect on the color appearance, a color cloth was used to make a comparison with a size almost the same as the face. The color of the color cross is 5R, 5
YR, 5Y, 5GY, 5G, 5BG, 5B, 5PB, 5
P, 5PR, 10 hues are selected, and for each hue, 40 colors with lightness / saturation of 8/4, 6/4, 3/4, 6/8 and none of N1, N6, N9.5 A total of 65 colors were obtained by adding 43 colors including the three coloring colors as basic colors, and adding 22 colors in consideration of the color of cosmetics (lipstick) and the color of clothes. Basic 4
The three colors are selected so that the central lightness / saturation of the complexion is approximately 6/4.
Therefore, centering on the brightness and saturation, 8/4 with higher brightness, 3/4 with lower brightness, and 6/8 with higher saturation
Was selected. The achromatic color was selected from N6 gray, N1 white, and N9.5 black, which are almost the same as the brightness of the central complexion. The fabric of the color cloth was made of cotton so as not to have a special luster in appearance.

The evaluator is not given information on the color design of the color cloth or the variation in the face color of the subject, and evaluates all 17 items in five steps without being aware of which subject is in what face color. Was. When the evaluation of one color cross is completed, the evaluation is performed by applying the next color cross.
The evaluation was repeated for all five colors. Table 1 shows the 17 items of the evaluation and the contents of the evaluation in five stages.

[0017]

[Table 1]

[0018] Correlation analysis and factor analysis between 17 evaluation items were performed using all evaluation data of evaluators for all 38 subjects. Factor analysis was performed by the varimax rotation method. The correlation in the 20s and the correlation in the 50s are as shown in Tables 2 and 3, respectively.
Tables 4 to 7 show the results of the factor analysis of the teens.

Since the evaluation structure was almost the same for each age, the results for those in their twenties will be discussed below. As a result of the factor analysis,
In the 20s, two factors were extracted, and up to 78
% Of explanations were high. The first factor is "good complexion-
Evaluation items such as "bad", "beautiful complexion-messy" and "healthy-unhealthy" are included to comprehensively judge the appearance of complexion. The second factor includes items for evaluating a color contrast phenomenon between a complexion and a color cross, that is, a feeling of conspicuousness of a complexion, such as “the contrast with the complexion is strong-weak” and “the fabric color is conspicuous-not conspicuous”. . Outside the factor (the third factor in the 50s), "cool-warm"
Items related to the image of "gorgeous-calm down" have been raised. Looking at the correlations in Tables 2 and 3, it is estimated that the evaluation item relating to the image has a low correlation with the evaluation item relating to the appearance of the complexion, and that the recognition relating to the appearance of the complexion and the recognition relating to the image are different evaluation structures. Is done.

The evaluation values of the five evaluators were averaged, the evaluation values of 65 color crosses for 17 evaluation items of each subject were plotted, and the evaluation tendency of each subject was analyzed. At the same time, a cluster analysis of the subjects was performed using the evaluation values (all evaluation data) of 17 evaluation items of all the evaluators for all the color crosses. In light of these results, classification was performed for each subject having a similar evaluation tendency. As a result, three groups were roughly divided. Therefore, the evaluation values of the subjects in the same group were averaged, and the evaluation value of the color cross was plotted for each evaluation item to examine the difference in evaluation tendency among the groups. 2 to 6 are graphs in which some examples in the twenties are selected as representative examples, and the evaluation values of the color crosses for each evaluation item are plotted, and FIG. 2 is an item “the complexion looks beautiful-looks messy”. , FIG. 3 shows the item “healthy-unhealthy”, FIG. 4 shows the item “fitting to the color of the cloth—not familiar”, FIG. 5 shows the item “the contrast with the complexion is strong-weak”, and FIG. Item "Cool and warm"
It is the graph which plotted the evaluation value of each of three groups with respect to the basic 43 color cross for each.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the change in the appearance of the face color due to the hue of the color cloth changes in a U-shape between 5R and 5RP for all three groups at any brightness / saturation. This indicates that a color cloth containing redness such as 5RP, 5R, and 5YR looks clearer and healthier than a color that does not contain green or blue-based redness from 5GY to 5P. I have. This tendency shows a similar result for the evaluation items included in the first factor. With a color cloth that feels reddish, the color of the color cloth and the complexion match (FIG. 4), and the complexion looks natural and well visible. On the other hand, in colors that do not feel reddish from 5GY to 5P, the complexion becomes dull,
Unhealthy, the color of the color cloth does not match with the complexion, and the complexion looks faint. Brightness of color cloth (8/4,
6/4, 3/4), the appearance of the complexion is slight, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, but the evaluation becomes lower as the lightness becomes lower. In the case of achromatic color, the evaluation of N6 gray becomes remarkably low. ing. Saturation of color cloth (6/4, 6/8)
The appearance of the complexion is high as shown in FIG.
In the case of No. 8, the evaluation was lower in the colors of 5 GY to 5 B without matching with the complexion, but there was little difference in the evaluation items included in the first factor due to the saturation. Throughout, the evaluation of complexion appearance was high in comparison with 6/8 5R. When 8/4, 6/4, 3/4, and 6/8 are compared, 8/4 has the highest evaluation of lightness and low saturation, and the evaluation of a bright pale color cloth is high, and 3/4 has the lowest evaluation of color. The cross rating tended to be low.

The evaluation tendency of the complexion was similar for the three groups, but the evaluation levels were different. In Group 3, the evaluation of any color cross color was high, and even for colors that did not include redness of 5G to 5P, the evaluation of complexion did not worsen as in Groups 1 and 2. Group 1 had a low overall rating. Group 2 has an evaluation value of 3 or less (evaluation is worse than "None") and is about the same or slightly higher than Group 1 and lower than Group 3, but if the evaluation value is 3 or more, it is about the same as Group 3. It was highly evaluated. To sum up, the subjects included in group 3 did not have a very low evaluation of any of the colors of the color cloth, but overall received a high evaluation. In group 2, some of the colors of the color cloth had a high evaluation, and some of the colors had a low evaluation. Yes, the evaluation is sharp. In Group 1, the color of each color cloth was low and the overall evaluation was low.

As described above, although there is a difference between the three groups with respect to the evaluation items included in the first factor (FIGS. 2, 3, and 4), the evaluation items included in the second factor ( (Figure 5) and evaluation items related to images outside the factors (Figure 6)
As for, there is no difference between the groups. In the evaluation of the contrast with the complexion shown in FIG. 5, the difference between the groups is slightly different at 3/4 where the brightness is low, and the intensity of the contrast in Group 1 seems to be slightly weaker than in the other two groups. . In 8/4 and 6/4, there was almost no evaluation difference between the groups, and the contrast with the skin was weak in a hue including redness, and the contrast with the skin was felt slightly strong in a color not including redness such as 5G and 5BG. Tend to be. Even in 8/4 with high saturation, the contrast is not so much felt in the hue including redness. This is considered to be one of the causes of the high evaluation of the items included in the first factor in the above-described reddish colors of 5RP, 5R, and 5YR. In the image evaluation items, there is no difference between the groups as shown in FIG. A color that feels bluish (around 5BG to 5PB) in any color cloth of any lightness / saturation is cool and a color that feels reddish (5RP, 5R, 5YR)
Then it feels warm. This is exactly the impression received from the color of the color cloth, and is consistent with a single color image. In other words, this suggests that anyone can produce the image using the color image regardless of the complexion.

In order to know the common characteristics of the subjects included in the groups 1, 2, and 3, the subject's skin condition was examined, and it was presumed that the complexion was the characteristic. Then, when the colorimetric values of the cheeks were plotted for each group, it was recognized that the facial colors were similar for each group. Group 1
Is a group of subjects whose complexion is perceived as being black, Group 2 is a group of subjects whose complexion is perceived as white, and Group 3 is a group of subjects whose complexion is perceived as normal. In general, the complexion is recognized as "color" and "whiteness", but the commonality of the group obtained this time is "whiteness", and subjects who feel yellow are included in group 2 and yellowish black. The subjects who felt that were included in Group 1 were grouped mainly depending on the brightness of the skin. However, among the subjects who felt reddish, the evaluation tendency was different from those in FIGS.

For subjects in their 50s, if the subjects with similar evaluations were classified in the same manner as in their 20s, a black-and-black group,
They were divided into three groups: a group with normal complexion and a group with fair or white and reddish unevenness. In these groups, the interpretation of the classification is not as easy as in their twenties, and factors other than complexion can be considered. Looking at the face photographs of the classified subjects, the dark-skinned group had darker skin but more stains, and the normal group was a group with normal or slightly darker skin but less noticeable stains. The subjects in their twenties had relatively clean skin, so the meaning of the classification could be relatively easily determined by complexion.
In the 0s, it was found that the appearance of spots and color unevenness affected the evaluation when looking at the complexion with the aging change of the skin condition.

[0032] Comparing the evaluation tendency between the twenties and the fifties,
The 5Y rating is significantly lower in the 50s than in the 20s. This is related to the evaluation of the color tone of the skin, and the yellowness of the skin is felt stronger in 5Y than in other colors. Since the complexion tends to become yellowish with age, it is considered that there is resistance to the appearance of strong yellowishness in comparison with the color of the color cloth, and the evaluation is remarkably deteriorated. Also, in the 50s, the evaluation is high from around 5PB with a bluish tint. In the twenties, the evaluation of high lightness was high, the lightness was low, or the evaluation was poor when the saturation was high. However, this tendency did not necessarily occur in the fifties, and evaluation of medium lightness and high saturation color cloths Was sometimes better. In the fifties, the medium-brightness color cross became compatible with the complexion color more than in the twenties. This is considered to be because the brightness of the skin decreases with aging.

Looking at the relationship between the color cloth and the complexion, a color cloth 5RP, 5R, 5YR of a color similar in hue to the complexion.
, The evaluation of the appearance of the complexion is generally good, and the evaluation is poor around 5G, 5BG, 5B, and 5PB, which correspond to the opposite color on the chromaticity diagram. 5RP-5Y with good evaluation
In contrast between R and complexion, the contrast with complexion is weak,
Although the color is similar to the color of the color cloth, the contrast with the complexion is strong in 5G to 5PB, and the result is that the color does not adapt to the color cloth (see FIGS. 4 and 5). As described above, even when the brightness / saturation is the same, the way of feeling the contrast when compared with the face color differs depending on the hue, and the contrast is strong and the color is conspicuous when compared with the face color and the color located in the opposite color. . The evaluation of complexion appearance is high when the contrast with the complexion is weak (the color cross is not conspicuous) and the color of the fabric looks familiar, and it is important for the complexion appearance that the colors look harmonious. Was found. In the 8/4 color cloth having a high lightness of 6/4, which is almost the same lightness / saturation as the complexion, the contrast with the complexion is not so much sensed, but the low brightness 3/4 and the high saturation 6 / In 8, the contrast is strongly felt. That is, a color effect having a lower brightness feels a contrast effect than a color cloth having a higher brightness value than a complexion color. However, in the black and white test subject of group 1, the contrast is slightly stronger than that of the other groups even in the 3/4 color cloth. It is presumed that this is because the face color of the subject in group 1 is low in brightness and is closer to the brightness of the color cross than the subjects in other groups. In the fifties, the lightness of the skin decreases with aging, and the result is that the color cross of the medium lightness and the complexion match. Regardless of the complexion, the higher the brightness of the color cross, the brighter the complexion is felt. In contrast, the dark-skinned subjects would expect that the complexion would appear blacker when compared to the brighter colors (8/4),
The brightness of the color cloth had the same effect on the color of any complexion. This is presumably because the color of the color cloth has the effect of illuminating the face from below, and the brightness of the color cloth is reflected in the face, making any complexion look bright.

From the results of Experiment 1 described above, the following results could be confirmed for the purpose 1 of Experiment 1. First, with regard to the purpose "whether the appearance of the complexion has a tendency or a characteristic depending on the color to be compared", the existence of the tendency or the characteristic was confirmed. There are colors that look beautiful, healthy looking, and colors that look good, and are highly evaluated when compared to a reddish color cloth, and the skin becomes dull when compared to a non-reddish color and a color cloth that is in the opposite color direction. It doesn't look beautiful. Also, the evaluation of a bright and pale color cloth with high brightness and low saturation was relatively high. Next, with regard to the purpose “whether the tendency or characteristic is different for each complexion”, there is a tendency for each skin whiteness (white, normal, blackish) in the 20s, and only the skin whiteness in the 50s. In addition, it is considered that uneven skin color such as spots is also affecting. Finally, there is a difference in the purpose of "whether there is a difference by age", but there is no difference that can be said to be completely different by age. 50
Compared to those in their twenties, the color contrast with the color cloth, in which the yellow color of the complexion was strongly felt, was likely to be due to the yellowing of the skin as a change in aging, as compared with those in their twenties. Also, in the fifties, the lightness of the skin decreased, and the color cross of the medium lightness was familiar with the complexion, and the evaluation of the medium lightness was generally higher than that in the 20s.

Next, an experiment 2 was performed to collect information on the appearance of the complexion based on the color contrast of the lipstick. In Experiment 2, "How the appearance of the complexion is affected by the comparison with the color of the lipstick", "If so, what kind of tendency is it?" , "Does the difference depend on the age of the subject?", "Is the evaluation tendency different depending on the age of the evaluator?", And "There is a difference between the taste of the subject and the evaluation of the third person.""Is the verification purpose. Experiment 2 was performed basically in the same manner, environment, and conditions as Experiment 1.
The subject first washed his face and measured the skin color with his or her bare face.
Next, a foundation was applied to measure the color of the skin and photographed. Next, a lipstick was applied, and a personal evaluation and a third-party evaluation by an evaluator were performed. Subjects were 22 in their 20s, 5
There are 15 people in their 0s and 6 evaluators in their 20s and 50s. The sample lipstick is 22 colors. The application of the foundation was performed by a beauty engineer. The evaluation was performed on a 17-point scale shown in Table 8 in five steps. When the evaluation of one lipstick was completed, the lipstick was dropped, the next lipstick was applied, and the person and the evaluator similarly evaluated. Tables 9 and 10 show the results of the correlation analysis and factor analysis between 17 items of all the evaluation data of all subjects in their 50s, and Table 1 shows the results of factor analysis in their 20s.

[Table 11]

The 22 lipstick colors selected in Experiment 2 are based on the color system of the applicant, taking into account the width of the lipstick, and the six color systems of VI, PK, RS, RD, OR, and BR. Pale light, moderate, vivid, deep,
22 colors combining 5 grayish tones,
The correspondence between the Munsell hue circle of each color and the brightness / saturation is as shown in Table 12 below. The numbers in each box in the table indicate the number of the selected lipstick. For the lipstick, the Munsell value of the representative color of each frame was selected with a color chip, and the lipstick was produced so that the applied color of the lipstick and the color chip matched.
In addition, in order to evaluate the color of lipstick purely, factors that affect the evaluation such as glossy, matte, pearly, matte, pearlless, etc. are excluded, and the lip color is not transparent I made a lipstick with a masking effect.

[0041]

[Table 12]

The evaluation structure is almost the same in both ages.
As a result of the factor analysis, two factors are extracted, and the explanation factor is close to 80% up to the second factor. The first factor is, for example, "complex color looks beautiful-messy", "overall appearance is good-bad", "complex color is bright-dark", "complex color is good-bad", "suitable-not suitable", etc. An evaluation item for comprehensively determining the appearance of the complexion is included. The second factor is
Evaluation items related to images such as “the contrast between the complexion and the lipstick is strong-weak” and “the lipstick color is noticeable-not noticeable” are included. Looking at the correlations in Table 9, the evaluation item for the image has a low correlation with the evaluation item for the appearance of the complexion, and the recognition structure for the complexion and the recognition for the image are different evaluation structures. Is the same as

First, using the evaluation values of the 17 evaluation items, a cluster analysis of the test subjects for lipstick of 22 colors was performed in the same manner as in Experiment 1. Classification points are: Whether the skin is red,
2. Depending on the lightness of the skin and the amount of unevenness of the skin, it is classified according to whether or not the redness of the skin is worrisome. For the groups that do not care, the skin color is divided into white, normal, and black, and there are more unevenness of the skin We divided them into groups based on whether they were small or small. As for the group in which the redness of the skin is worrisome, since the redness of the skin itself is uneven in color, it was classified into red-white, reddish, red-black, and red-black with many unevenness. When these groups are examined by subjects with similar evaluation tendencies, subjects with white skin color and little unevenness, white skin color with many unevenness, and subjects with normal skin color and little color unevenness are grouped into one group. This was designated as Group 1. Next, the skin color was red and white and reddish was worried, and the skin was reddish and reddish was worried. Subsequently, the skin color is normal and has a lot of color unevenness, the skin color is black and the color unevenness is small, and the skin has a reddish and red-black color. Finally, the skin color is black and has many color irregularities, and the skin is reddish and red-black and has many color irregularities.

The groups 1 to 4 had good evaluation tendency in this order. The evaluation trends for lipsticks of groups 1, 3, and 4 were similar, and the higher evaluation for the lipstick color system was R
D, RS, and VI, the complexion was brilliant, and the color unevenness was not conspicuous. The color systems with low evaluations were OR, BR, and PK, in which the skin was yellowish, dull, and appeared black. When the complexion looks yellowish, the reaction is sensitive and the evaluation is poor. Looking at the evaluation of lipstick tone, the evaluation of complexion was Vivid, Moderate, Deep, and Pale in that order, but the overall evaluation of Moderate was high. The evaluation tendency of group 2 is group 1, 3,
Similar to 4, except that RS, PK,
The color system of VI is more yellowish color than RD, OR, BR
It was a higher rating. In the OR and BR color systems, redness unevenness is conspicuous. When the colorimetric values of lipstick and complexion are analyzed, the appearance of complexion is affected by the lipstick saturation in Group 1 with white skin and less unevenness, and the lipstick hue is affected in Group 2 with uneven skin redness. Influence, the skin is black,
In Group 4 with many unevenness, it was found that the lightness of the lipstick affected the color components that affect the appearance of the complexion depending on the skin color. In general, lipsticks containing a lot of redness had a good evaluation of complexion, and lipsticks containing no redness had a bad evaluation of complexion. In other words, it was found that the lipsticks of RD, RS, and VI having a reddish color are colors that make the Japanese complexion look beautiful.

FIG. 7 shows an example of evaluation in the twenties, and FIG. 8 shows an example of evaluation in the fifties. Figures 9 and 10 show the relationship between complexion and lipstick
Shown in In FIGS. 9 and 10, a circle indicates a complexion in the 20s, a triangle indicates a complexion in the 50s, and a square indicates the color of lipstick. Referring to FIGS. 7 and 8, in the twenties, the evaluation is almost in parallel in the order of fair white, normal, and black regardless of the color of the lipstick, but in the fifties the evaluation greatly changes depending on the color of the lipstick. You can see that it is doing. The color of the lipstick for making the complexion look beautiful requires a proper hue difference from the complexion in the hue tendency, and the evaluation of the hue that is too close to or too far from the complexion is low. Looking at the lightness / saturation (tone) trends, moderation, vivid,
The evaluation of deep is high, and the saturation is the same or lower than pale, light and complexion with higher brightness than complexion. Grayish tended to have lower ratings. FIGS.
It is a diagram showing the overall result of the evaluation of teen complexion and lipstick,
For fair skin, the range of highly evaluated colors is wide, and the evaluation of bright colors such as pale tones is high. For normal skin, it has a color width about halfway between fair skin and dark black skin, and the evaluation of pale tone and bluish color is lower than that of fair skin. For dark-skinned skin, the evaluation of the red system, particularly RD-V, is good, and the evaluation of the pink system and pale tone is low. For reddish skin, the RD rating is poor,
The evaluation of RS, PK and VI, which are bluish colors, is higher than D.

For subjects in their twenties, the results of factor analysis of the evaluation items and the tendency to evaluate lipstick color are similar to those in their fifties. In the cluster analysis, groups were not united as in their 50s, and there were few people who changed their classification depending on the items used in the analysis and were always in the same group. If you classify it as strong, it is classified as clean (skin is white and less uneven) and messy (small and dull, black), but if the skin is black and the skin is clean (small uneven) If not, the evaluation is not low. Comparing the evaluations of those in their twenties and those in their fifties, there was no age difference in the evaluation tendency for the lipstick color system. The evaluation tendency for tone is 50
In the twenties, the vivid tone covered the yellowing of the skin due to aging change, and thus the evaluation was high, whereas in the twenties, the evaluation of the moderate tone was high. The variation in the evaluation of all colors
It is more pronounced in the 50s than in the 20s, and the higher the age, the more effectively the lipstick color appears, the dullness of the skin can be covered with the lipstick color, and the effect of being able to express youthfulness by selecting the color is recognized. Was done. As a result of Experiment 2, when the complexion looks beautiful, the overall impression evaluation is high, and the complexion looks beautiful is one factor for matching, and there are colors that make the complexion look beautiful for each complexion and colors that are not. It turns out.

As for the evaluation of the subject in Experiment 2, the evaluation of the moderate tone is high in the subjects in their fifties, the evaluation of vivid is equal to or lower than that of the moderate, and the evaluation of the deep is low. RD in color system, especially R
The evaluation of DV is low, and the evaluation of BR-V is high. Among the pale tones, there were many people with high RS ratings. For those who are dark and dark, the ratings of vivid and deep are higher than those of moderation, which is consistent with the rating of the evaluator. Subjects in their twenties rated Pale high and Vivid low. Many people like grayish colors (slightly dull, colors that don't contrast with complexion), but this is probably related to fashion.
Looking at the differences in the evaluations according to the age of the evaluators, the evaluators in their 50s have higher evaluations of vivid tone, orange and pink than those in their 20s. In their 20s, Brown, Moderate and Grayish are highly rated. For RS evaluation,
No age difference was observed.

Next, the color of the garment having a low evaluation in Experiment 1 can be increased by the color of the lipstick having a high evaluation in Experiment 2, or conversely, the lipstick having a low evaluation can be corrected by the color of the garment. Experiment 1 in which the color of clothes was evaluated in comparison with the complexion using a color cloth to verify whether the evaluation could be improved, and experiment in which the color of lipstick was evaluated in comparison with the complexion Experiment 3 was performed in combination with Experiment 2.
As an experiment 3, an experiment was performed as a first example of the experiment 3 as to whether a color having a low evaluation of a color cloth can be evaluated with a color having a high evaluation of a lipstick. As test subjects, two 50-color white skin, two black skin, two 20 white skin and one black skin were selected, and nine evaluators were used in the same manner, environment and conditions as in Experiments 1 and 2. evaluated. Evaluation items were performed for 10 items that were duplicated in Experiments 1 and 2. The evaluation of the combination of the color cloth and the color of the lipstick for the fair-skinned subjects in their twenties is as shown in the graphs of FIGS. The color cloth used in the experiment is shown on the horizontal axis of the graph, and the evaluation value of each lipstick color for each color cloth is shown by a polygonal line.
As a result, the color cloth with a low evaluation showed a tendency that the appearance was improved by applying lipstick. In particular, a remarkable tendency was observed in the color cloths 2, 22, and 36. Note that the color crosses in the drawing are numbered sequentially from the left to the colors of the color crosses in FIG. 2 and are denoted by these numbers. Next, in the same manner, an experiment was performed as to Experiment 3-2 on whether the lipstick with a low evaluation was applied with a color cloth with a high evaluation to increase the evaluation. As a result,
Lipsticks with low evaluation tended to have a slightly better appearance by applying the color cloth with high evaluation. In particular, the tendency was great for lipsticks 40, 49 and 19.
