Warm Spring

Golden, vivid, sun-lit — the palette of sunflowers and warm sand.

A Warm Spring has warm undertones, medium-light depth and clear colouring. In practice that means your best colours are rich, flattering versions of warm peach, marigold, carnelian, turquoise — worn near your face they even out your skin and brighten your eyes. Gold is your most natural metal. Shades like black, dusty blue tend to work against you. Below is the full Warm Spring palette — neutrals, basics, accents and statement colours — plus what to avoid, your makeup shades and metals.

Frequently asked

What colours suit a Warm Spring?+

What colours should a Warm Spring avoid?+

Steer clear of black, dusty blue and mauve. They sit in the opposite temperature or clarity to your features, so near your face they add shadow, dull your skin or overwhelm your natural balance.

Is Warm Spring warm or cool?+

Warm Spring is warm in undertone, with medium-light depth and clear clarity. Your best metal is gold or bronze, and your most flattering lip shades are coral and warm peach.
