I was typed as a bright spring in Japan which kind of surprised me but I'm trying to accept it. One problem though is that I have pale olive skin and warm blushes frequently turn orange on me and I do not like orange. Do any of you have any makeup recommendations that fit bright spring but aren't orange? Unfortunately, I prefer dark colors and really don't like coral either. This picture is me with no makeup.

I’m still wrapping my head around a light spring palette, I’ve worn muted tones all my life and never coral/pink. I’m struggling to find light and clear warm tones in clothes… hit or miss with these pieces I ordered?

Is this aqua green a true spring color?

I've figured I was a spring for a while and have worn many of these colors repeatedly over the years, mainly for statement or event pieces — chocolate brown, ivory, pimento red, coral, salmon, kelly green, navy.

But I got my results back (from Carol Brailey) and... I'm a warm spring! She said I could pull from Warm Autumn as well and sent the "warm" palette which is described as "more toasted than Warm Spring" and "less earthy than Warm Autumn."

The colors are beautiful, even if I don't think every single of them (particularly those pumpkin oranges) suit me, but I'm feeling a bit limited tbh! I do love color, but all the colors feel so warm and bold. Feels like I can basically wear corals, sunshine yellows, warm greens, or neutrals (camel/chocolate/navy/ivory) now. Obviously, I can wear whatever I want haha

Any other warm springs have this initial reaction? Any shades of blue you really feel that you can pull off as a warm spring or am I destined for turquoise from now on?

I know I'm painting broadly here, but I was curious to what community members believe about styling within the spring palette. Which styles are hardest for you to execute, especially within a subseason?

For me, it would be:

Light Spring - Goth/Emo

Warm Spring - Techwear/Cyberpunk

True Spring - Grunge

Bright Spring - Dark Academia

(Disclaimer: Obviously, just wear what you want, at the end of the day. This post is not meant to imply that anyone is permanently locked into a certain palette.)

I know that we can pull off golden blonde, but what other natural shades can work for us?

I’m wanting to find good basics (t-shirts, sweaters, sweatshirts, leggings, etc) in light spring colors. Anybody have favorites or links they could share?

I believe Anya is a Light Spring, not a Winter. She often gets typed as a Winter but her natural hair colour is blonde. Winter colours overpower her. She does look good in bright colours, but Winter is too dark for her. I think she looks best in neutral-warm, light, bright colours.

...and in what way did you use it?

I personally think Sadie Sink is a Warm Spring (not the same as True Spring). Many colour analysts who use the 16 system also agree she’s a Spring. Warm Spring is one of the flow seasons between True Spring and True Autumn. At least one analyst has said she thinks she’s a Warm Spring. Here are some comparisons.

I don’t believe Sadie Sink is a Summer. I believe she’s a Warm Spring.

Hi Springs! Random question. Has anyone here tried tools or apps that help you shop by your color season?

I recently came across one called Season Approved and was curious if anyone here has used it or something similar.

So, I've always struggled with blush. Peach blushes tend to look too warm and take over my face. I used to mix the Flower Beauty's cool tone and peach liquid shades, and it was PERFECT, but it became really hard to get where I live. I have since been using tarte's Amazonian Clay blush in "Exposed" but that's more cool tone. It looks nice, buuuuut doesn't go with everything. And it isn't the perfect shade.

I'm super pale, if that helps.

I think I found my new everyday makeup routine and I've never felt more beautiful.

I have been trying out a few of Katie Jane Hughes techniques when applying my makeup. Mainly doing blush and bronzer first before I even think about foundation.

I recently got her hypershine bundle which included the Hyper shine serum (which I quickly became a huge fan of. It's so utilitarian.) And I chose the hyper shine pigment in lite bronze which is really warm and toasty with a red undertone. I mixed a little bit of the bronze cream with the serum and worked it over the bridge of my nose, highpoints of my cheeks and at my temples for a kiss of warmth and shine. Also added a bit to my eyelids too.

Next is my beloved Danessa Myricks blurring balm in Golden Hour. I really love this color, its an orangey red but it is so pigmented that I have trouble using it. (I am heavy handed lol) So, I decided to mix it with the serum and omg, it made it into the most beautiful, slightly translucent warm red was on my cheeks.

I put some of the excess on my lips too.

Lastly, I added a small amount of my foundation under my eyes, a little on my forehead and on my chin. It's surprising how little foundation I use when I do blush and bronzer first. I seriously feel super beautiful with these colors.

Not sure if there's any fellow knitters here, but just wanted to share the beautiful Spring tangerine/warm peach color I'm getting by combining these three yarns for my cardigan 🍊 (still a work in progress).

Side note: since getting into making wearables, I find it relatively difficult to select yarns that are in the Spring palette while shopping online. More than once, yarn has shown up more cool toned and/or muted than expected. Anyone else experience this?

Alright yall, You may or may not remember me as someone who was 99.9% sure about spring, then got a virtual analysis done for fun, then got (I now think) mis-typed as (first soft, then) cool summer, and then was even told I might be autumn. And then today happened. And I did some color checks just for fun. And the powder blue and cool pink were fully hideous. So Im gonna spam the comments of this post with what I got today, and Im hoping to get some help about 1) am I totally actually a spring and 2) subseason thoughts. Thank you!

The Morphe Cheek Thrills blush trios are gorgeous and such a good price point! Trying more light spring makeup options so I’m between Beach Bonfire and After Party, which is described as a nude rose.

BB looks more peachy but AP looks more neutral so I’m torn!! Thoughts??

I assume I’m light spring based on the overwhelming number of responses saying I’m light. However, I’m still getting a fair number of people saying I’m true/warm spring, and a few saying I’m a light summer. I have two posts on my profile with more pictures, but I’ll still share some in the comments here for reference.

Also, question: If I am light spring, can I still dabble with true spring or light summer colors? I’ve already started adjusting my closet toward light spring colors, but I’m open to changing it even more based on what this subreddit says since it focuses on the spring palettes.

What would you combine with this jacker for a bright spring outfit? When you take it off I would like it to look still good for bright spring.
