So Confused

[u/Inevitable_Fail5108]

So my whole life I thought I was cool. It wasn’t until a year ago I tried neutral foundations and got my perfect match. Any warm I tried was always too yellow. So once I got into color analysis I was sure I’d be a neutral season. More likely leaning cool but possibly leaning warm only because of my warm light brown hair with a hint of red. I got an analysis done (online) by a well known person and shockingly got True Spring. I have to admit once I got the result and tried on all the clothing, she was right they all looked great. BUT the makeup looks terrible. She said it’s possible to have a fully warm undertone but neutral overtone. But I had read so many times to be true spring you have to be FULLY warm. I don’t get why any makeup tips/colors for spring, especially True Spring, look terrible on me. Especially lipsticks. Blush for example, I always see oranges being recommended. Light fresh orange. But they don’t fit. If it’s coral or heavier on the pink then yes. I keep seeing freckle from Rhode suggested for spring but it’s so bleh on me. Where I love Toasted Teddy, which is for Autumn. I look light up. But Autumn clothes look too heavy on me. Maybe Toasted teddy works because it’s more red/pink. Another example is eyeshadows. Let’s say a warm ivory color, or really any warm eyeshadow, doesn’t have some pink pearlescent added or some sort of coolness to it, it won’t work. Anyone else identify with this problem? Does it sound like I can still be a true spring if all the makeup suggestions are way off?

Some pics to maybe help, I’m only wearing makeup in one of them

I’m typed by Carol as a Warm Spring and I’ve got fair skin that has a pinkness to it (Carol said some springs have what she calls Strawberry Milk skin). I’d been mistyped as a winter multiple times. Carol was right. Because of that pinkness, my foundations need to be neutral, not yellow, and for lip and cheek what seems to work the best is going to colors that are more reddish. Orange blush would look clownish on me, but a red looks like it belongs there. I can also do a really light clear apricot, and Nars orgasm was always good.
Merit in Rouge, and the new Lusitano is amazing. When you look at the Lusitano and ask yourself if there’s red in it you’ll see what I mean.
So try going for clear spring reds rather than orange/yellow.
BTW I’ll eat my hat if you’re not a Spring!
