1. Features – Light & Warm

As a Light Spring, your overall look is defined by lightness and warmth. Warm colors are the most flattering for you. When you look in the mirror, the first thing you’ll notice is the brightness and harmony in your features.

• Minimal Contrast: Your skin, eyes, and hair share a light and warm tone, blending softly.

• Warm Undertones: Gold suits you better than silver, enhancing your natural warmth.

There are no dark areas anywhere, and you'll notice minimal contrast between your features, with your skin, eyes, and hair all sharing a lightness.

1.1 Eyes

Your eyes are light and warm, often showing a sunburst pattern. Typical colors include light blue, green, hazel, and warm light brown.

1.2 Hair

Your hair is light to medium blonde, light red (like strawberry blonde), or light golden brown. It has a warm glow and often lightens in the sun.

Some Light Springs were blonde as children, while those with darker skin tones may have light brown hair.

1.3 Skin

Your skin is light with golden or peachy undertones. It ranges from fair to medium and often has a natural glow. Freckles can add to your warm appearance. Gold jewelry complements your skin tone best.

In the case of Wallis Annabelle, her skin is light with neutral undertones.

1.4 Contrast

Your features have low contrast. There are no dark areas in your coloring, and even the whites of your eyes blend softly with the iris and skin. This creates a harmonious, gentle look.

2. Color Dimensions

The Light Spring palette leans towards warm tones with yellow undertones. Even blue shades in the palette have a touch of yellow, creating a softer, lighter look.

The colors are predominantly light, with only a few medium tones for contrast. Extremely dark colors are absent, and the palette avoids both icy tones and highly saturated hues.

3. Color Palette

Color Palette The Light Spring palette is bright and fresh, blending the lightness of Spring with warmth. It includes soft pastels and medium-saturated tones that reflect a joyful and delicate aesthetic.

3.1 Best Colors

Some fabulous color choices include:

Your best colors are light aqua, peach, ivory, light grey, camel, khaki, and soft yellows. These shades enhance your lightness and warmth.

Light neutrals include light greys, beige, and warm ivory. Dark neutrals include medium browns and soft, muted greens.

On the darkest side, you have lots of other darker neutrals - medium-dark browns and some shades of greenish greys.

3.2 Worst Colors

Your worst colors are cool and dark. You should avoid black and white because they will make you look shallow.

Also, avoid deep purples and cold blues - they will overwhelm your appearance. Too saturated or too bright color as burnt orange will make you look pale.

4. Metals & Accessories

Gold is the go-to metal for Light Springs. Opt for lighter tones of gold and avoid dark or overly rich finishes. Shiny, brushed, or matte metals work well, but avoid antiqued or oxidized finishes.

Jewelry with pearls, rose quartz, or other light stones can beautifully complement your coloring. Avoid dark or heavy jewelry, which may clash with your delicate features.

5. Color Combinations

Light Spring thrives on vibrancy and low contrast. Playful combinations like orange and blue or neighboring hues like yellow and green can make you sparkle.

Stick to colors that reflect your light and warm palette. For example, pair a soft peach top with light grey pants or a pastel yellow dress with camel accessories.

6. Prints

6.1 Colors

Colors Patterns with Light Spring colors work best. Avoid those with too many clashing shades or dark tones.

6.2 Contrast

Choose patterns with low contrast to match your natural appearance. Delicate patterns are more flattering than bold designs.

6.3 Pattern arrangements

Opt for small, rounded, and densely packed patterns, such as flowers, butterflies, or birds. Avoid stiff geometric patterns or overly large elements.

7. Makeup

Light Spring’s makeup should enhance your natural lightness and warmth. Focus on fresh and colorful looks that are soft and glowy.

7.1 Foundation & concealer

Choose lightweight, creamy foundations with yellow undertones. Avoid cool, pink-based foundations or matte finishes. Opt for a dewy texture to complement your radiant skin.

7.2 Bronzer & contouring

Use a light peachy bronzer sparingly. Avoid dark or overly warm tones. Contouring isn’t necessary for Light Springs, as it can overwhelm your delicate features.

7.3 Blush Palette

Your blush should be yellow-based, like peachy pinks or soft corals. Avoid matte finishes; a slight shimmer adds a natural glow.

7.4 Lipstick

Go for warm pinks, corals, and peaches in glossy or creamy finishes. Avoid dark or overly bright shades. Your lipstick should feel fresh and light.

8. Eye Makeup

8.1 Eyeshadows

Neutral tones like creams, soft browns, and greys work well. Highlight your eyes with pastel pinks, peaches, or soft blues. Avoid dark, cool, or overly bright shades.

8.2 Mascara

Usual black mascara is not the best option for you due to the lightness of your skin tone. It can appear aggressive against your light complexion.

Your best mascara comes in a variety of shades of brown and grey, which are lighter than black.

8.3 Eyeliner

Eyeliner colors are similar to your mascara, but don’t be afraid to also use some colorful options.

To make your eyes pop, you can choose an eyeliner which is similar to your eye color. And once again, avoid black because it is a cool color. Your darkest colors are spicy mix and granite grey.

The Light Spring palette is perfect for those with light, warm, and delicate features. By embracing the colors, patterns, and makeup tips that suit your season, you can create a wardrobe and beauty routine that enhances your natural glow.
