The wheel was never drawn with you in mind
Every standard colour theory chart begins with the same assumption: a pale, neutral base against which warm and cool tones are demonstrated. The swatches that show what "warm" lipstick looks like, what "cool" blush does to a complexion, what "complementary" colours mean for eye shadow, all of it was calibrated on skin with very little melanin. When you have brown skin, you are not a variation of that base. You are a different starting point entirely, and the theory as taught never accounts for that.
