The Romantic Shade That Makes You Look Great
Reds are known to be very stimulating, Woelfel says, and many people don't like that in a bedroom. Still, if you want a strong pop of color, Woelfel recommends a burnt brick red, which is less intense and won't keep you up at night.
Why You'll Love It: Warmer colors—like this deep red—are more flattering to skin tones, says Woelfel.
What to Watch Out For: Avoid heavily saturated or neon reds, and, as with all new colors, test the biggest swatch you can before committing.
