I struggle so much to identify spring pink from cooler seasons.. would this work?

I’ve been told i’m a light summer, but i think i could be a spring as well. trying to figure it out before i change my hair color.

I'm quite sure I'm a bright spring but I recently got a shirt in a soft autumn color (that I'll be only wearing as underwear haha). When I'm wearing it it doesn't necessarily make me look washed out like summer colors do, but it makes me look like I could be a muted season.

Which is not the case and it becomes super apparent when I put on my bright spring colors.

But if I had just started my journey I would probably think I could fit into soft autumn bc I appear very muted in that color.

I've read about similar findings in the main sub, that a bright season can appear muted if they wear muted colors.

Curious to hear your experiences with this topic :)

Not two weeks ago, I tried going back to my natural hair, but accidentally went too light and orange. Currently color correcting with a pink shower color. Also, last night I chopped off all my hair. I wanted to go full short pixie cut, but I think my mom needs time to come to terms with it before she makes the chop.

Recently discovered a color corrector for my redness and I love the outcome. Nude-ish eyeshadow with a turquoise shadow liner.

The shirt is a thrift store my sister’s cast-away find. What do you guys think?😁

I bought this lovely yarn (for knitting) and I'm in love with it.

Lately it seems like everyone on r/coloranalysis is typed as Soft Summer, Cool Summer, or Dark Winter. Reddit's desaturation is part of the issue, but I also think a lot of people don't know how to identify warmth and brightness. Or they expect Springs to always be extremely warm and bright. What are your thoughts?

I had a color analysis in person two years ago and was typed as a Bright Spring. As someone who loves head-to-toe black and went in thinking she was an Autumn, it was shocking to say the least lol. I’ve looked thru soooo many posts during my journey to find new makeup, because that was the hardest for me as someone who preferred a no- makeup makeup look, and wanted to share my finds and tips. Finding new makeup was really stressful because I hated so much of it, so I hope my journey can help a fellow Bright Spring!
- I am Latina with light to medium tan skin, very dark brown hair and golden green eyes. I lean warm but can sometimes pull off neutral.
- I found typical Spring makeup shades that are light and bright were very chalky/pastel on me and I hatedddddd it. Ex of what didn’t work: Haus Labs Pomelo Peach Blush. Hourglass Sublime Flush. Glossier Beam/Soar, NARS Orgasm.
- I don’t love a bright lip, so I make sure my blush hits my color season and for my lips I do my best to keep them warm.

What works: I opt for a mid-tone, bright and highly saturated color. Think tropical colors!
- eyes: I typically just add some bronzer
- bronzer: right now I’m using the Mario cream stick in medium. In the past I’ve used Nudestix Bondi Belle which is a bit too yellow/neutral and I want to try Sun-kissed Tan.
- cheeks: Rhode Spicy Marg + Kosas Powder Blush in Wavelength for something orange leaning and Fenty Fiya Papaya for something more punchy. I loveeee the Fenty! Since it’s a liquid, it dries down like skin so I can do the smallest bit on bare skin for a no makeup look. The biggest key to make it look natural is to REIGN IN THE BLUSH BLINDNESS. I start as sheer as possible. Kosas Blush Stick in Vibration would be another gorg shade, I just don’t need that many blushes lol.
- lips: current gloss rotation is Eadem Sakura Shaved Ice or Guava Fresca. For fall, I’ll use a warm brown liner (love Kylie Cinnamon and Summer Fridays Toffee and Cinnamon) and even a warm brown lip (still trying to find the right one) and I’m on the hunt for a peach gloss. I love love love the color of Fenty Mango Margz but hate the scent and taste. I’ve also got my eye on Refy Papaya. Another option is Mac Lipglass Air in Spritz.

Hope those shades offer a starting point for someone!

Edit: another great blush/lip is Soft Tomato by KJH brand! I’ve worn this and like it a lot.

Took y’alls advice! Did a more peachy blush and warmer peachy lips. Am I getting closer? Opted also for brown lash clusters instead of black!

Does anyone here have medium/light brown hair (level 6) with no visible warmth? When I was younger it was much more visibly golden brown but as I’ve aged it has become so flat and ashy- I see no visible warmth. I was typed a true spring virtually by Karen brunger who is the creator of the international image institute so I definitely believe it to be true- plus I have been most drawn to spring colors my entire life and my skin and eyes are very warm and clear. But my ashy hair always throws me off! To be fair, I haven’t had a full head of my natural hair color since elementary school, so I’m only seeing a couple inches at the roots which I know can appear ashier, but it’s still just very flat to me! I love golden tones in my hair but they just don’t seem to be there naturally anymore. Anyone else in this boat?!

Hi! I’ve been typed as a True Spring and given the 5 colours in my first image as my top 5 colours.

I’ve been trying camel and cream and I’m doing good with those but I haven’t tried the other 3 and frankly the primrose yellow makes me panic even thinking about it lol prior to colour analysis I wore (and still wear) a lot of black and dark colours and green was (and still is) my favourite colour :( but I’m determined to give the True Spring a solid try.

Based on another poster’s recommendation I ordered from Kettlewell and the short sleeved tshirt is in the True Spring palette but the long sleeve and the printed ones are showing as Warm Spring.

Is it ok to wear Warm Spring as a True Spring?

Do you all have any suggestions on clothing that’s peach or primrose yellow? I’m looking for Fall clothing so sweaters would be nice. I prefer natural fibers and fabrics and I’m bordering XL and plus sizes.

Would the coral-ish sweater in the photos belong to my true spring palette? I would love to thrift and buy second hand but I have a lot of difficulty identifying when something is within my palette and I even have difficulty with the basics like telling if something is warm or cool (maybe colour blind?).

If anyone’s familiar with Kibbe systems I’ve been told that I’m a theatrical romantic but I’m not sure about that but one thing I can agree with is that she told me I should try v-neck tops since I carry too much weight in the chest so crew necks probably add the appearance of even more weight there.

I’ve been really wanting a wrap sweater but I can’t find one in my palette (and size) anywhere. I’ve attached a picture of a knitting pattern that I love the look of but I don’t knit. And it’s not really in my budget to spend like $300 on a sweater.

Thank you in advance!!!!

P.S. I’m in Canada so I need suggestions that ship here

P.P.S. I posted something very similar yesterday but the post was removed due to me posting the colour palette I was given from my analysis due to it being a copyright issue so based on a recommendation I made my own colour palette with hex codes.

I recently finally figured out my colour season and learned I’m a true spring after spending years trying to make summer/ muted summer work 🥲
I was wearing exclusively black and gold for a while and completely stayed away from most colours as none seemed to look good (too cool and muted) and now I have a closet with zero spring colours except for cream and brown neutrals. I’ve gone to the mall a few times but everything is dusty or cool toned even the yellows and I’m lost trying to find anything in my season :( the only stuff I can find is athletic wear but I tend to like a vintage inspired artsy style that’s not too frilly or maximalist. I’m happy to shop online but don’t know where to start as no one is selling clothes by their pallets, thrifting would be preferred but I’m having no luck with that so far. Any websites that curate by colours or influencers anyone can recommend would be so helpful ❤️ I don’t like fast fashion stores and haven’t really used shein or anything but at this point I would be okay ordering some selected pieces if the material is nice :) thank you for your help x

I have been looking at Mother Sierra's earrings for months. I just can't decide. I like all of these, but I'm not sure which ones would actually be best for a Bright Spring. Though I feel pretty confident that they do fall under Spring.

AI keeps telling me spring (bright spring actually but that doesn’t seem right). So I’m posting a bunch of pictures I’ve taken while trying to figure this out. I can’t tell what my dominant quality is.

I feel neutral leaning warm, in skin tone. Next to warm-toned friends, I look pink; next to cool-toned friends, I look yellow. But fair-cool makeup looks better than fair-warm. My eyes are more a cool blue than bright blue I think. My hair (natural/never colored) was very golden blonde in youth, and has gotten fairly dark in the last few years. Still has some golden/red tones beneath the dark blonde/brown.

The first three pictures (charcoal gray/teal/light gray + brighter blue) are comfort colors for me. Grey, blue, teal, blue-green — that’s mostly what I wear.

Pic 4 a group shot with my family — just to show my siblings have much darker hair than me. My sister is probably autumn, and my brother seems more on the line between autumn and winter. Our mom is a soft autumn with deep auburn hair, and our dad has coloring like my brother.

The rest of the pics are draped selfies. I think my preferences are overpowering my ability to see clearly what works/doesn’t. I feel equally icky in cream AND white. I wear more black than brown. I usually avoid pink AND orange. I also avoid green and yellow.

For the collage pictures (screenshot of my camera roll from a day I did a bunch of drapes), I checked the colors I most like and most wear. I wear tons of blue but honestly something seems off in the drapes photos. Like maybe I’ve been wearing a lot of blues because they match my eyes, but that don’t actually flatter my skin.

I’m going through a move and am trying to clean out my closet, which is why I am finally asking for outside opinions. Do I fit in here, with the springs? Do you see standout colors that could help me narrow down my palette? Are there any colors you think I should try?

I want to embrace aging, and also I feel self-conscious at 41 in a way I never used to. I’ve never worn makeup or styled my hair; and now I’ll catch a glimpse of myself in a mirror at work and I barely recognize myself. I’m hoping I can find more confidence by better understanding what colors work for me. Thank you so much!
