Check 'em out:Īnyway, I hope this helps, but before you go one final thought: These color palettes are guidelines and not a full list. I even dish on which celebrities share your season. As for Summers? They usually have fair complexions and lighter hair.įor a complete list of the colors that look best on you, I think the best one is in Carole Jackson’s book, ‘Color Me Beautiful.’ It came out in 1980, thus starting the ‘getting your colors done’ craze.

#Color me beautiful book palette for spring skin
Many have dark skin and/or olive skin, though many with fair complexions and dark hair are winters, too. Like the Autumn/Spring comparison, Winters are usually darker versions of Summers. Do you look better in dark chocolate brown and pumpkin (Autumn) or apricot or pastel yellow-green (Spring)? Both seaons look best in warm colors, but the Autumn color palette is a little darker than the Spring one. They typically have darker hair and eyebrows, whereas Springs have fairer complexions and lighter hair. Is your hair warm (honey blonde, strawberry blonde, auburn, golden chestnut brown) or cool (black, dark brown, ash brown, ash blonde, platinum blonde)? Once you figure this out, read on.Īutumns can most easily be classified as darker versions of Springs. That means you’re either a Winter or Summer.Īs I said before, you can also take a cue from your hair color. When you blush, you look more rosy than peachy. (Helpful hint: most redheads fall into this category.) If you look best in the hot pink, you have cool undertones. That means you’re either an Autumn or a Spring.

If you look best in the bright orange, you have warm undertones. In fact, one might make you look kinda sickly. One should definitely look better on you than the other. Then do the same with something hot pink. Put a bright orange piece of fabric (or paper) next to your face. The best way is to figure out which color looks best on you is to do the orange/pink test. When you blush, do you get rosy or peachy cheeks? That’s one indicator. Sometimes you can just tell which type of skin you have. Skin has one of two undertones: cool/blue or warm/yellow. Sound familiar? What season you belong to depends on your skin tone and hair color. There are four different color seasons: Winter, Spring, Summer and Autumn. You want to look good? This will help and I promise I won’t tell anyone you were here. SIDE NOTE: If you’re a guy (and, no, you’re not the only guy who frequents my blog) don’t think you should stop reading because this is a ‘girl’ thing. Whether you want to master the world of fashion or just want to look your best, this is vital information. In fact, we held home parties so consultants could come and analyze everyone. Yes, it was that important. I nearly fell out of my chair.īack in the day, EVERYONE knew what ‘season’ they were.
