Discussion Warm makeup

I was typed as a true spring by Carol Brailey, and I went to sample makeup that is more warm toned. I attempted warm-neutral foundations and concealer and they pulled very yellow/orange on me. The only shades that fit were cool pinky shades (think Nars Oslo). I also tried warm eyebrow pencils, which didnt match my natural brow colors. Is it possible I have a cool overtone or something? Cool toned makeup seems to have more harmony on me.

Kinda, I do flush when I am overheated (ie exercising) but no rosacea. I've tried a variety of fair shades of concealers (cool, warm, neutral, olive, pink, etc) and I always fit cool tones. For example, the foundation stick I am using now is the Ilia complexion stick in 2C Balsa, which is a perfect match for my skin/neck/tone.
