Red is the color of love

As Valentine's Day approaches, we are surrounded by the color red; the universal symbol of love for one another. Cards, balloons, heart shaped boxes of candy and cute little stuffed animals, all in red, adorn shop windows and grocery store isles. More red roses are purchased on Valentine's Day then any other day of the year.

The red rose represents the deepest, truest love of all. Red is the color of our heart, the part of us we share with others.

Other shades of
red are related to love and romance as well. Pink says pretty, cute, soft, cuddly, innocent and pure. Purple says passion, seduction, erotic, secret and deep.

What is your favorite shade of red?

As a color expert I am often ask what it means if a particular color is your favorite. Here is how I would describe the personality of a red lover. Does it fit for you?

Color Personality: If red is your favorite color--

Outgoing, outspoken and rarely out done you want to live life to the fullest. You are dynamic, passionate, exciting and standout in a crowd.

While willing to listen to the views of others you always do what you think is best in the end. You are opinionated and likely to share your views whether or not anyone is interested but rather than be put off by that most people appreciate your belief in yourself.

You are a person of action and may be athletic. You crave excitement and become restless when life becomes too routine but just keep in mind that all of this energy can be exhausting not only to you but also to those around you.

Visit my site http://www.sensationalcolor.com and drop me an email. I'd enjoy finding out more about your passion for red.

My favorite shade of red is a perfect cherry red! Like in lipstick and old 50's style ice cream parlor seats...I also like that red tinge that the sky gets in the morning right before the sun peeks out from the horizon.

Red is invigorating, exciting and gives me a sense of motivation for a project. It projects warmth, comfort and is just plain cozy. It is a life color, a love colot, an adventure color and a fun color. It is the color of your face when you are really angry and the color of your face when you have been laughing hard. It is the beginning and the end

To describe RED in one word, I'd say PASSION...
