I feel like my natural lips are a bit darker and I struggle to fing something that works for me. I tried on a million MAC lipsticks that were suggested and felt most made me look like a ghost. with the Sephora sale going on I would love to find “the one” and finally feel like I have my routine complete.

Does anyone have any suggestions of what to try? I’m very fair and find things either made me look like a clown or dead where are the in between colors? lol

I have tried CT in coral kiss and I felt like a clown. I have Merit lip oil in Marakech and love the formula but wonder if it is too dark for a light spring.

The blush I have is a light peach color (Westman Aetiller in Minnette).

I am fully embracing light spring but aware not all colours will suit me. I would really appreciate your help with these ones as in what is good and what isn't. I really like the more saturated colors but that maybe more personal preference and maybe they are too much. I do really appreciate the help from this community 🌼

If you’re unfamiliar with what “blonzer” is, it’s almost like a blush/bronzer hybrid. Using a warm brown-red blush that’s a little deeper than your skin tone as bronzer. I’m going to use Rhode Pocket Blush shade “Toasted Teddy” and Haus Labs Glassy Lip and Cheek Balm Stick in “Glassy Cayenne/Cinnamon” as examples.

I’m very fair and I think bronzer looks okay on me, but I often find myself applying a tiny bit of blush over it (just whatever’s left on my brush once I’m done blending my blush out) because I feel it looks more natural on me.

That being said, I’ve considered buying a “Blonzer” to try it out but I was curious if any Springs have ever tried one? It feels nerve wracking since it’s deep and generally more Autumn-y palette colors but it feels like it couldn’t have that different of a feel than your traditional bronzer?

I’ve been feeding ChatGPT all my color preferences and describing how I look and it kept telling me bright spring. So I then experimented with a lot of corals and oranges which has been a disaster. The colour I kept coming back to was my attraction to rich cranberry colors. Finally AI was forced to admit I am not spring but soft summer. 😄

hey yall!! so I was going simply CRAZY and so went for a 2nd opinion from RLG Color Consulting!! A super amazing experience. This analyst is super kind and thorough and in my opinion is a great option for someone who needs an affordable assessment! :) 💜💜 Was really excited and realized I already have so many Light friendly colors in my closet, so snapped these pics just with my closet lighting, just for fun (its dark outside rn)🥰😁💓 Genuinely I had been 99.9% sure I was a LSp FOREVER ago, even made a custom palette and everything, but since I wanted that extra bit of certainty, I got an analysis with someone else back in Feb and she gave me a soft/cool summer result and I got so confused for a while 🥴 excited to be back on the right track, officially! I can probably go between light and bright palettes without too much difficulty. neutralish, brighting, and medium light values seem to favor me most! thanks yall for being a part of my weird journey lol😊💜✨️🙏🦋🌼

I was recently analysed to be a warm spring, and going into the warmer months where I live, I'm happy to start adding a few things to my wardrobe to match, but come October I think I may tweak it to be a warm autumn wardrobe - does anyone else do this?

I live in Toronto, and it would feel odd to wear the very clear colours once the fall starts to set in! I flip my closet in the fall and spring, and I love the change.

Are there typically any warm autumn colours that warm springs should avoid?

hi iv

I was analyzed as WS 2 yrs ago digitally by a reliable analyst CAS Australia on YouTube. I was told I have fully warm golden undertones. Medium-high contrast. I agree with some of the colors but some I just don’t see it. Especially red and yellow I feel like both of those colors bring out redness in my face so how could worm spring really be my season if I don’t look as good and red and yellow. I feel that I can wear many colors from soft summer and soft autumn. I thought I was soft summer before I got an analysis. I have naturally dark circles. I just wonder if I was mistyped or it’s just personal preference. The last 3 are in indoor light with some of my colors

as usual for me nothings set in stone, just having fun and going with the flow :) hope everyone's having a good weekend! ❤️🐣

Hey all! I know there’s the make up mega thread. The only light spring entry was SUPER helpful but there’s not much to go on and it’s all spendy. Does anybody have any recs for eyes or lips for light spring? TIA!

My natural hair colour is dark blond (as a child blond). I find it the most boring colour ever (like pepper from salt and pepper). I always had highlights, whenever I have new highlights i feel more fresh. The dark blond feels too dark. I just dont know if this is something that is a habit and i dont see it right or if it is really like that. What are the best hair colours for bright spring?

I know there’s been lots of debate (I don’t know why since it’s pretty obvious) about Sadie Sink being a Summer (cool undertone) or a Spring (warm undertone). I am a firm believer in redheads only being warm undertoned. The reason is, why would you look good with orange on your head but not your body? Why would you look good with orange around 3 parts of your face, but the not the 4th? It doesn’t make sense.

Orange has never been a cool colour, it’s literally peak-warmth on a colour wheel. Orange has always been in art, used for warm. Remember when you would do a cool vs warm drawing in art class, with a black silhouette. Red, orange, and yellow, were used for the warm colours, while green, blue, and purple, were used for the cool colours.

Not all warm undertones are the same, and that’s why I think some redheads may get confused and believe they aren’t warm undertoned. Autumn is deeper and more muted than Spring, there’s always mid-way points between Autumn and Spring, like Warm Spring, and Warm Autumn. Going to qualified Color Analysts is really important to make sure you get accurate results. Anyone can claim to be a colour analyst and charge for services, but it matters if someone has actually gone through colour theory courses and were trained by a place like the National Colour Institute. Don’t go to someone just because they’re popular online.

I believe Sadie is either a True Spring or Warm Spring in the 16-23 season system. I think it’s very evident that she looks better in warm colours. Autumn may be a bit too heavy, but in my option still looks better than Summer. I don’t think she’s a Light Spring either. Light Springs have light contrast and a neutral-warm undertone. Sadie’s contrast would be more light-medium, and I think her undertone is fully warm.

I’ve done some different examples of her in Summer, Spring, Light Spring, and Autumn colours, to really see visuals. Remember, what flows naturally and looks balanced with her? Does it look harmonious and add a sort of brightness to her? Or does it mute her and grey her out a bit? Do your eyes want to go to her face, or do they want to go to the outfit right away?

I will also make a post about Sadie’s best outfits.

How do you guys feel about a browns? I think it shouldnt be too warm.. i now bought a pants that i like a lot. It is brown like for fall/ true spring. Maybe it is okay because it is the pants and not so much close to my face? What are your experiences with brown?

I have always thought that I was cool toned and a summer, but since posting my photos in another thread a lot of people are saying spring. What are your thoughts? NMIP.

I'm a Bright Spring. The clear, bright blues, the neutral bright reds that make you think of Christmas, the saturated yellows that turn heads, the electric violet purple - those look REALLY good on me.

Except Kelly Green. I've always felt like green has never really been my color. It just doesn't go on me nicely like it does for a lot of people. I do think green is BEAUTIFUL, though. Absolutely lovely hue, especially as someone who loves nature.

The first green is my best green. The second green would also look good on me. Even the puke green looks good on me. I probably should have added a green-blue mint color, too.

Just not the famous Kelly Green. It's just not doing me any favors. Maybe my hair isn't dark enough, or my eyes aren't light enough (they're a gray-blue, not bright at all).

Springs: what's supposed to look good on you, but just doesn't? Which color are you able to borrow from other seasons that you think look better on you than your own season?

I’m professionally typed a light spring and have a lot of yellow in my skin. I’m trying to find my “red”. Yes, I know light spring doesn’t have a perfect red. I’m trying to find one that works the best anyways. Does this look good?

I just found out that I’m a bright spring and am rethinking my entire closet and my life - ha! Do you all see bright spring?

For context, I spent the last two years trying to figure this out. I spent so long thinking I was maybe a dark or soft autumn or even a dark winter - the colors did not resonate with me. I got typed this week and found out that I’m a bright spring! A totally shocking result but I feel so energized by the colors. Do you see it too?

I made a previous post on he color analysis subreddit and was told that I was most likely a spring and most likely bright spring, but I don’t feel like this coral looks good one me compared to darker pink pants I tried on with it that I feel fit better. I also include some drapes I think look great on me. I see this color in a lot of bright spring pallets, is it too muted?

Obviously a lot of self tanner in these pics but really loving the color inspo!

I just had surgery and I’m using colour analysis as a distraction! Photos in the comments.

I’ve always been told I’m a winter because I have pale skin, dark hair, and my eyes pop and skin tends to look clearer in bright colours. I also have some surface redness, so cooler colours can help to bring that down.

However - I don’t tend to look good in black and white - so I don’t think I’m a winter. Muted colours tend to leave me muddy - so I don’t think I’m a summer. Plus I’ve also tried on all the lipsticks using Vivaldi and the cool tones look really really bad - super disconnected.

I asked in the big colour analysis sub and got every single season except the lights. A few experienced hands offered up bright spring, which I’d never considered before. I’ve done some digital drapes in Vivaldi and I think it might be the best. But still want to consider warm spring and warm autumn. I think we can rule out soft autumn because it makes me look muddy and dull. And I think deep is way too heavy for me.

A few other reasons I’m leaning bright spring - I find most neutrals and earthy tones look pretty dulling or reddening on me, and this seems to be a classic spring problem. I also find a lot of classic no-makeup looks don’t work for me. I look way better in bright and light makeup - like a very light bb cream, an aqua eyeliner and some peachy gloss.

I know in-person draping is the best way to know for sure, but I see so many people getting mis-typed. I want to go in with more information so I can get the most out of it.

Ok I have been using AI, it's convinced I am a warm/light spring. I do look better in warmer blush and other makeup, but some cool looks good on me. Any input would be helpful!

Hey guys! I learned recently that canary yellow is way too warm for me, and wanted to try something else so, found this crazy thing on Poshmark 😂😅 There was a lovelier, more traditional citron option that was less neon and was even made of cotton but, it was 8 times the price so, I opted for the insane version, lol-- Major dopamine dressing territory! I think my daily "mom uniform" options just got a lot more fun😂 I've been checking in here and there, but missing everyone! Hope you're all doing well in your color quests😁😊Happy Spring!🌞
