1. Features – Warm & Bright

As a True Spring, warmth and brightness characterize your appearance. This means that warm colors complement you best, and when you look in the mirror, warmth is the first thing that stands out about you.

Your golden honey shades dominate your overall appearance. With your skin, eyes, and hair contrasting each other, you exude vibrancy and do not appear muted. Your contrast level falls within the medium range.

 

1.1 Eyes

Your eyes create contrast with your skin and hair, exhibiting warm blue, warm green, or light hazel hues. Additionally, you may notice a sunburst pattern around the pupil.

 

1.2 Hair

Your hair includes shades like medium golden blonde, strawberry blonde, coppery red, and light golden brown. Golden hues are prominent in your hair as well.

It's typical for True Springs to have had blonde hair during their childhood and gradually turned into brunettes as they aged.

Additionally, individuals with darker ethnicities often have light or medium golden brown hair.

 

1.3 Skin

Your skin features warm and golden undertones, enhancing your complexion with a healthy glow. Gold complements your skin beautifully, while silver may not be as flattering.

Your skin tone varies from fair to dark, and you may also have freckles adding to your natural charm.

Your features exude warmth with honey and gold dominating your appearance, while your skin, eyes, and hair boast clear contrast, leaving no muted tones. Overall, your appearance leans toward the lighter side.

Your palette favors warmer shades like turquoise and mint with hints of yellow, omitting cool tones like blue.

With many yellow undertones, your palette is generally lighter, with darker shades to complement.

With brightness as your secondary characteristic, your colors lean towards saturation rather than fading.

 

3. Color Palette

The True Spring color palette has the warmest shades of the three spring seasons. It combines warmth with brightness. All the colors are yellow based and there is no coolness in this palette.

Your colors are pure, warm and saturated. You may think they are childish colors, but on a Warm Spring as you they look nothing but fantastic.

Spring flowers, fresh green grass, and leaves inspire your colors. They are saturated and clear.

You may think about yourself as a tropical island with turquoise water, yellow golden sands and juicy fruits.

 

3.1 Best Colors

Some fabulous color choices include:

Some fabulous color choices include copper, peach shades, light golden brown, bright golden yellow and coral.

Also, you have lots of greens in the palette, but all of them are in a yellow side of green. All of your colors have a golden tone. Your best neutrals are light yellows and greens instead of whites.

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, dark and muted. You should avoid black and white because they will make you look shallow. Also, avoid toned down and soft colors like muddy browns and dusty blues - they will make you look unhealthy.

Don’t go with cool pinks and reds, dark and cool tones such as royal blue and aubergine because they don’t help you at all.

4. Metals & Accessories

Because your inherent warmth, True Springs shine brightest in warm, yellow gold or light, shiny gold. You can also explore the elegance of warm rose gold and the crispness of white gold.

However, metals like silver and cooler options won't complement your natural coloring and are best left untouched.

Avoid matte finishes, as they clash with your naturally vibrant hues. Opt for metals that gleam to enhance your look.

 

5. Color Combinations

You can combine any of the colors on the True Spring palette with each other, but some combinations will look much better. Your natural appearance features those combinations.

The best color combinations are similarly contrasting. You can go with a value contrast by pairing shades of the same hue, such as light green with dark green. So you achieve contrast in your appearance.

You can also opt for hue contrast. On this side you can combine colors such as yellow and green, or opposite colors such as teal and orange. The further apart the colors, the higher the contrast between them.

6. Prints

6.1 Colors

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

You can wear patterns with minimal colors from other palettes, but avoid those with too many clashing colors.

6.2 Contrast

Since your coloring has medium contrast, try choosing patterns that have a higher contrast level too, rather than one which blends too much.

In this example, the first one looks better because it has more contrast, just like your natural features.

6.3 Pattern arrangements

Try to avoid too small or too big elements, square geometric patterns. Instead, go for creative rounded shapes. Flowers, butterflies and birds - all natural elements will look good on you.

 

7. Makeup

Your color palette combines warmth with brightness. The colors are warm, quite saturated, and medium-light.

The best makeup for you is colorful and fresh. Your natural features give you a fresh and saturated appearance. So, you need to repeat that contrast in your makeup.

Lucky you, you have a warm, colorful palette with all the color that you need. Your makeup palette uses the same colors as the clothing palette.

 

7.1 Foundation & concealer

Your skin is warm with golden undertones, so your foundation and concealer should be a yellow-based one.

Match foundation and concealer to your individual skin tone. Avoid foundations with cool, blue-based or pink undertones as well as matte and dry finishes. Instead, choose creamy, natural, sheer textures.

 

7.2 Bronzer & contouring

Make sure you choose a spring-fresh color. Look for peachy and golden colors. Highlighting is best for you because it gives you light and lifts your look. These shades come from the neutral area of your palette.

 

7.3 Blush Palette

You may need some trial and error because it depends on your individual skin tone.

But in general, a peach-based blush will work for you, or a light cocoa shade if your skin is darker.

Avoid matte finishes and opt for shimmer ones.

 

7.4 Lipstick

As for your lipstick, the best colors for you are warm, medium intensity. The brighter oranges and corals will make your lips pop out. You can go with glossy, satin and shiny finishes.

 

8. Eye makeup

8.1 Eyeshadows

For eye make-up, you can choose beiges, creams, and browns from your palette. But for highlighting your look, you can choose from the colorful side.

Don’t be afraid because these colors will look natural on you. Go for creamy and shimmer finishes and avoid matte ones. Keep in mind that you are bright, not muted, so you need to glow.

 

8.2 Mascara

For your mascara try to chose a shade of dark brown instead of black because it may be too much for you.

 

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 color is a shade of brown.
