Do you feel an affinity with this palette of colors? Read on...

Color Characteristics

If your natural coloring is LIGHT, CLEAR and WARM then these are the colors for you - vivid, vibrant and fresh!

When you echo your natural coloring in the clothes and makeup you wear you create Color Balance. Your skin and eyes will be clearer and brighter. 

SPRING - a vibrant mix of Light Warm and Bright (Clear)

It's difficult to completely define Spring coloring but it's likely that: 

HAIR: You will probably have been a golden haired child and as you've matured you've retained elements of Light golden blonde, light red or strawberry blonde. The red element says Warm and, even as you age and transition into gray, you're likely to continue to carry that 'golden glow'. 

EYES: The brightness and clarity of your eye color is one of the most obvious characteristics of SPRING - clear blue or turquoise, a slightly stronger teal, sometimes green or topaz and often flecked with yellow. There will sometimes be a deeper rim around the iris which denotes brightness. 

SKIN TONE: Your skin tone is fair through to a golden beige often with a sprinkling of freckles. Sometimes your may appear to have pink toned skin but it is still influenced by golden tones beneath. 

Your skin and eyes are always clearer when you wear colors that echo your natural coloring. A bloom will return to your cheeks, you'll look younger and more attractive.

NB On an odd occasion the fair skin and bright countenance has stronger eye and hair color e.g. amber/golden chestnut, rather like actress Michelle Dockery, beautiful but unusual! 

Create Color Balance with your natural coloring

Each of the beautiful shades in the SPRING color palette has the same Color Characteristics as your own Light, Warm and Bright (sometimes called Clear). When you follow a color palette you can't go wrong because every color will blend seamlessly!

This is what creates a COLOR FAMILY - a group of colors with the same characteristics that bonds them together in complete harmony rather like a bloodline! 

Although your colors are WARM they have a lightness and freshness that echoes your bright eyes and clear skin bringing your coloring to life 

When you're wearing colors from your own Color Family your skin and eyes will be clearer and blemishes will be minimized. A natural bloom will appear; makeup from the same color tones will enhance this even more.

Just like to wear Neutral Colors?

Some people think that Color Analysis means you have to wear bright colors all the time - not so!! 

Although the SPRING palette is brighter than most, there is also a complete cross section of neutral and more gentle tones to create the basic pieces of your wardrobe.

You can choose to wear the beautiful accent colors with the neutrals or you can take a more subtle approach and wear a sophisticated neutral palette alone.

Your best neutrals are...

Creams and beiges, light and deeper camel, golden tan through to a warm chocolate brown, gray and of course, everyone can wear a soft blue denim. A subtle sage green blends in so well too. 

Its easy to forget that we need neutral tones to form the backbone of every wardrobe. 

The SPRING neutrals all mix and match so that you can play with shades and tones. Every one is chosen by nature to be the most flattering for your natural coloring.  

Let's look at a real Style Icon, Jane Fonda, and the way these elegant neutral tones all work together.

and Colors to avoid

• Avoid Cool colors with a blue undertone - icy pinks and blues, fuchsia and magenta

• Avoid deep heavy colors - they will drain your lovely golden tone and can make you look quite 'pinched' and grey.

• Avoid dusky or muted shades, they will flatten the brightness of your coloring
