Seasonal Colour Analysis: Your Complete Guide To Being A Spring
Everything you need to know about being a spring on the seasonal colour analysis.
So you've done your colour analysis and figured out you're a spring. Now what?
Spring is the season of renewal and rebirth, blooming flowers and warmer weather. It's time for bright and fresh colours. In a seasonal colour analysis, the spring palette has three subcategories: bright, true and light.
Here's what each one means and what colours work:
Bright spring
Bright and warm features mark a Bright Spring. You're best suited to warm colours instead of cool ones. Your features are saturated and vibrant, with a high contrast. Your skin tone ranges from fair to tan and has either warm or neutral undertones.
The eyes of a Bright Spring are sparkly. They can be either blue, green, topaz or even brown but probably have warm features. You may notice a sunburst pattern around the iris, typical for a Spring.
Just like the skin and the eyes, the hair of a Bright Spring tends to develop warm highlights in the sun. Typical Bright Springs have golden blonde hair with highlights, although copper, auburn and medium brown with reddish undertones are also quite common.
The palette
Bright Spring colours are fresh, bright and warm. This palette is the most intense of the Spring colours. Look for jewel-tones with a heavy focus on pinks and turquoise.
True spring
A True Spring's overall appearance is primarily warm. There are no cool characteristics about this palette. Your features are clear and contrast each other. Skin tones can range from fair to dark but have obvious warm qualities. Gold looks good on you, while silver makes you look washed out.
The eyes of people in this category are medium-light, with enhanced lightness and warmth, and stand out in contrast to your skin and hair.
A True Spring's hair is dominated by warm, golden undertones. The colours range from medium golden blonde to strawberry blonde to golden brown. Copper hair is also common.
The palette
Think of sunshine, tropical islands and a warm day on the beach. The colours are bright, naturally yellow-based and warm. Look for warm greens, orange-toned reds, yellows and every shade of beige and tan.
Light spring
A Light Spring is also suited to warm colours. However, unlike the other two categories, a Light Spring has very little contrast between their features—everything tends to blend in together. All your features are similarly light.
Your skin may range from fair to medium and has warm or neutral-warm undertones. Light Springs also tend to have freckles. The eyes of a Light Spring are, of course, light; they can be blue, green, hazel or light brown. Like the other two Spring categories, you may have a sunburst pattern around the iris.
The primary characteristic of this category's hair is also lightness. Light Springs are often blonde as children. In adulthood, the hair ranges from light blonde to medium golden blonde, strawberry blonde or light copper, and a light golden brown.
The palette
Although it exudes the freshness of spring, it also embodies some of the softness of summer. The colours are gentle, but not muted. Think of soft pinks and grassy greens, turquoise blue and lavender.
