ABSTRACT

A psychophysical experiment was conducted to investigate the perceived color rendition of facial complexion under different spectral power distributions (SPDs). Sixty-three subjects completed a categorical evaluation of their own skin under 20 light sources at 2700 K (fluorescent and LED), in a full-size booth. The aim was to investigate the influence of SPD on the appreciation of observers of their own complexion. Three different types of skins were evaluated and statistical analyses showed that there were significant differences between some SPDs. Correlations between subjective estimation and color metrics were investigated to find which metrics best describes visual preference.
