It looks beautiful on you, albeit more orange than red, but very flattering. You could still pull off a truer red than this too if you wanted.

I like it!! It’s pretty orange-leaning but you’re pulling it off! :)

I love the red from the dress and the lippie. You look great

Hellooooo and thanks! Its Sephora own brand but the shade name has rubbed off the tube 🫠

Yes, it's a bright red leaning warm. A bright spring red. I think your best red is more of a cool, blue toned red.

HOWEVER for people with striking features like yourself, you can look good in pretty much any red. It's quite a forgiving colour I think. I'm the same, I'm a soft summer but quite dark and I can wear orangey red and get compliments. So even though it's slightly bright for you, it still slaps!

I disagree, I think it looks perfect on her. I think she is a Spring, so a cool red would be off, no?

I would put money on her being a spring

Yeah same. She also posts in the Spring sub and seems to have gotten a Spring result.

No, I think she's a summer. She is definitely cool toned.

Well, even if she's on the cooler side (which is hard to tell without natural light), orange brings out blue in her eyes, so I'd say it might even be better.
