1. Features – Warm & Muted

You're a True Autumn because warmth is your primary characteristic, complemented by a muted secondary aspect.

Warm colors suit you best, reflecting the rich, golden undertones in your coloring.

Your appearance exudes warmth, with features blending seamlessly because of their muted quality.

With a low to medium contrast, your coloring has a gentle and toned-down allure.

 

1.1 Eyes

Your eyes exude warmth and richness, with a mix of brown, green, and medium gold hues. You may also notice a swirling erratic border around your pupil and freckles on the iris.

 

1.2 Hair

Your hair radiates a distinct rich warmth, ranging from golden browns to golden blondes and auburn hues. Exposure to the sun may result in the development of golden, caramel, or bronze highlights.

 

1.3 Skin

Your skin exhibits warm undertones, making gold a more flattering choice for you. It ranges from fair to dark, and against true black, it may appear slightly yellowish.

When adorned in rich and warm colors, your skin emanates a golden or bronzy glow. Additionally, you may have some freckles on your face.

In the case of Jennifer Lopez, her skin is tan with warm undertones.

 

1.4 Contrast

Your contrast level between your skin, eyes, and hair falls within the low to medium range.

Although your eyes and hair are darker than your skin, the contrast isn't very pronounced. Overall, the image presents a medium value.

2. Color dimensions

On the hue scale, True Autumn resides at the warmest end, making it the warmest season among the three Autumn seasons. This translates to colors with yellow undertones, resulting in a scarcity of shades of blue, the coolest color.

Instead, you'll find warmer variations like turquoise, which carries yellow undertones.

Your palette includes a range of rich colors like reds, yellows, warm browns, and yellow-based greens. These span from light beiges to deep browns, offering a variety of shades from light to dark.

Most colors fall in the middle of the value scale, with some leaning towards the darker end.

Your palette falls in the medium to low range on the chroma scale. This means that even though the warm tones might make colors seem saturated, they're not overly intense.

 

3. Color Palette

Your palette is warm and rich like a golden wheat field. It reminds us of the warm sunny autumn days and golden sunsets.

True Autumn colors are like the golden crown of a tree. His fallen leaves show their beautiful shades of browns, oranges and warm yellows.

True Autumn palette combines warmth with softness. Your colors have a clear yellow undertone. There are no cool tones in it. If you give it an overall look, the palette looks rich and vibrant.

 

3.1 Best Colors

Some fabulous color choices include:

When it comes to light neutrals, you have yellowed offwhites - they are warmer than pure white. Your best light neutrals are beiges, creams, and ecru.

Your best neutrals are definitely not white and black as they are winter colors.

Instead of black, you have dark browns and very dark slightly olive greens. These are your best dark neutrals.

 

3.2 Worst Colors

Your worst colors are cool and bright. You should avoid icy blues, pastel pinks because they will make you look off.

Also, avoid black and white because they don't help you at all.

Another bad category are extremely vibrant colors like intense blues and pinks. They don’t go well with your naturally muted coloring.

4. Metals & Accessories

Metals like gold, copper, brass, and bronze complement True Autumn's rich coloring.

Opt for metals with a less reflective quality, like hammered, oxidized, and antiqued finishes. Avoid overly shiny metals that clash with your muted appearance.

Steer clear of cool-toned options like silver, platinum, and white gold, which don't harmonize with your warm undertones.

Amber is an excellent stone choice for True Autumns, in all its shades. Additionally, greenish, grassy stones can beautifully enhance your warm coloring.

 

5. Color Combinations

You can combine any of the colors on the True Autumn palette with each other, but some combinations will look much better. Those combinations are found in your natural appearance and repeat the contrast of it.

As a True Autumn, your appearance blends, but you still have some contrast between your features.

To get the best outfit combinations, try having a pop or color on you. It is also important to have the rich look you naturally have

6. Prints

6.1 Colors

The best patterns for you are those that only have True Autumn colors in them.

If a pattern doesn't have too many colors from other palettes, it's still wearable. However, if it contains too much of a clashing color, it's best to avoid that pattern.

6.2 Contrast

Since your coloring has low to medium contrast, try choosing patterns that have your natural contrast level too, rather than ones which are too bold.

6.3 Pattern arrangements

Try to avoid too small or too dense elements. Also, square geometric patterns may not look good on you (exception makes retro designs).

Instead, go with elements that correspond with autumn itself - leaves, wood structures, as well as oval shapes.

7. Makeup

True Autumn color palette combines warmth with gentleness. Your colors are warm, muted and mediumdark.

The best makeup for you is warm, rich, and glowing. Your natural features are medium in contrast, so you need to repeat that in your makeup using muted but rich colors.

You may appear bright, but it’s because of your naturally rich glowing that must be doubled in your makeup.

 

7.1 Foundation & concealer

Your foundation and concealer should have a matte or satin finish.

Go with yellow undertones and avoid cool and blue undertones because they don’t match with your rich skin.

Foundation and concealer must be matched to your individual skin so you may need some trial and error on that.

 

7.2 Bronzer & contouring

Bronzers and contouring products were made for you. They put an accent on the healthy golden glow you’ve got.

Your best bronzers are warm and rich. Make sure you choose a yellow-based bronzer. Your season is all about low lighting, so you can use that on your face makeup too.

You can use your bronzer as contouring or brow bone color too. Don’t be afraid to go a bit darker. If you blend it well, it will look gorgeous on you.

As for the textures, avoid too shimmery ones because they don't match with your muted coloring.

 

7.3 Blush Palette

For your blush palette, go with warm and glowing ones. Match the color of your blush with your skin tone.

You can go with lighter pinks and oranges or go darker to the browns of your palette.

Cool-toned pinks and blue-based blush tones with cool undertones are a no-no for you.

As for the texture, make sure you choose a not-too-matte and not-too shimmery texture.

 

7.4 Lipstick

Your best lipstick colors are a range of reds, oranges, warm pinks and browns.

The textures should be matte or a golden finish.

 

8. Eye makeup

8.1 Eyeshadows

Your eye makeup colors are taken from the neutral area of your palette. The exception makes the eyeshadow colors which come from the complementary and accent colors of your palette.

For eyeshadows, your best colors are beiges, khakis, browns, olive, and the golden shades of your palette.

If you want to make your eyes pop out, go for colors like oranges, purples, and greens.

As textures, choose matte or shimmery finishes. If you want something extra, you can go with a metallic highlight on your eyelid. Make sure you blend it well.

 

8.2 Mascara

Your best color mascara comes in a variety of dark greys.

True black is not a good option for you as you are a warm season. You can go with warm dark browns or dark grey tones.

 

8.3 Eyeliner

For your eyeliner, you can go with your mascara colors too. In addition, for a more colorful look, you can go with teal blue or moss green.

To make your eyes pop out, you can choose a color similar to your eye color.

True black is a no-no for you. Instead of that, your darkest options are charcoal and mocha brown.
