1. Features – Warm & Bright

As a True Spring, warmth and brightness are the key traits of your appearance. These traits make warm colors the most flattering for 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

Bright and warm, ranging from warm blue, green, light hazel, or amber. Often features a sunburst pattern around the pupil.

1.2 Hair

Warm golden shades dominate, including golden blonde, strawberry blonde, copper red, and light golden brown.

1.3 Skin

Warm and golden undertones create a glowing complexion. Skin tones range from fair to dark and often include freckles.

Brad Pitt has a neutral undertone and light skin depth.

1.4 Contrast

Medium contrast between skin, eyes, and hair. The features create a vibrant look without being muted.

2. Color Dimensions

The True Spring palette captures the vibrancy of springtime:

• Hue: The colors are warm, dominated by golden yellow undertones.
• Value: A mix of light and medium tones with a few darker shades to balance.
• Chroma: Bright and clear, with no muted or faded colors.

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.

True Spring colors are fresh, vibrant, and full of life, inspired by nature’s most brilliant spring scenes.

3.1 Best Colors

Some fabulous color choices include:

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.

Avoid cool, dark, and muted shades:

• Cool Colors: Icy blues, royal blues, and deep purples.
• Dark Colors: Black and stark white are too harsh.
• Muted Colors: Dusty browns and greys dull your appearance.

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.

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.

True Spring outfits shine when they reflect your natural vibrancy and contrast.

• Value Contrast: Pair light and dark shades of the same hue, like light green and dark green.
• Hue Contrast: Combine complementary colors like orange and turquoise for a playful, vibrant look.

6. Prints

6.1 Colors

Patterns for True Spring should reflect your warmth and brightness:

• Stick to True Spring’s bright and warm tones.
• Avoid cool or muted patterns.

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.

• Choose lightweight, yellow-based formulas that match your golden undertones.
• Avoid cool, pink-based options.

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.

• Warm peachy and golden bronzers enhance your glow.
• Contouring isn’t necessary, but subtle highlights can lift your features.

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.

• Opt for peachy pinks and corals with a slight shimmer.
• Avoid matte finishes.

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.

• Warm tones like coral and orange-reds work best.
• Glossy and satin finishes enhance your natural brightness.

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.

• Neutrals like beige and cream work well
• Don’t shy away from brighter shades like turquoise or golden peach for a pop of color.

8.2 Mascara

Dark brown mascara is a softer choice than black. Eyeliners in warm browns or colors that match your eyes (like green or gold) are perfect.

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.

9. Conclusion

True Spring is all about warmth, brightness, and vibrancy. By embracing your natural features and wearing the right colors, you’ll look fresh, radiant, and effortlessly confident.
