There are several ways to cancel out purple, depending on the context. Here are some options:
- Purple cancels yellow: In color correcting makeup, purple can help hide yellow skin tones or complexion, as well as sallowness – counteracting yellow and green tones.
- Yellow cancels purple: If you have purple hair and want to cancel it out, yellow is the color to use. According to several sources, yellow or gold-colored toners can neutralize an intense purple hair color. Orange tones are recommended for light shades of purple.
- Violet cancels yellow: In hair coloring, violet (or purple) will neutralize unwanted yellow.
- Blue cancels orange: In hair coloring, blue can neutralize yellow-orange.
Its important to note that color correcting involves using opposite colors on the color wheel to cancel each other out.
