Seasonal color analysis SUMMER!

Seasonal Color Analysis SUMMER is probably the prettiest of all the color palettes with the delicious and delicate tones of an English country garden. 

As the fresh and warm tones of Spring give way to the sleepy days of Summer, the colors become soft and dreamy, seen through a 'heat haze'.

Color Characteristics

If your color characteristics are LIGHT, COOL and SOFT then these are the colors for you; nothing brash, just elegant and feminine. 

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.  

SUMMER - the prettiest mix of Light, Cool and Soft

Although there is no firm definition of SUMMER coloring it is likely that:

HAIR: You will have been a child with white blonde, fair or light brown hair although it's now likely to have deepened a little. You may consider yourselr 'mousey' but the overall effect is cool and ashey. There is often a small amount of red in your hair but it's more flattering to play this down otherwise you may look sallow. 

EYES: Your eyes could be light blue, blue grey, green grey, slate blue, even light hazel - all softly greyed down - you may have a slightly darker rim around the iris.

SKIN TONE: Your skin tone will be fair to ivory, through to a medium beige but always with a Cool/blue undertone which gives pink tone to your complexion. You are likely to flush or blush easily. Avoid true beige foundation, it will 'flatten' your coloring, but choose color with a slight pink undertone. 

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.

SUMMER may be Light, Cool and Soft - but dull NEVER!

Create Color Balance with your natural coloring...

English country garden colors of mauves, blues, violets, pinks are far too pretty and soft for many people but you need this delicacy otherwise your fair coloring could be overpowered.

Although your colors are COOL, they are the lightest and softest of the COOL palette. Light and gentle does not mean pastel just a light intensity; not heavily saturated. 

The soft berry shades and sea green are deeper than you might expect but the effect is subtle and almost sultry.

Your grey and navy neutrals are lighter than those from other palettes but strong enough for your gentle coloring.

Your most flattering colors:

  • are Cool i.e. they have blue undertones
  • every shade of blue from pastel through to navy blue is wonderful for you
  • the prettiest of pinks, soft berry and soft fuchsia
  • the softest sea green and the lightest of clear red
  • soft white rather than pure white which is too clinical for you

Your best neutrals:

  • rose beige through beautiful cocoa to rose brown
  • light blue grey and silver grey through to grey navy; all soft dusty shades that will provide the perfect foil for your pretty accent tones. 

The gentle colors of the Summer palette do not restrict you to hot weather but lend themselves just as easily to soft warm fabrics in the colder months.

What to avoid:

  • any color with a Yellow (Warm) undertone; yellow, orange, tan and mustard, any gingery browns
  • Bright sharp greens, warm salmon or coral pinks
  • Heavy dull colors and earthy tones


How to cope with the wrong colors:

  • If you must wear an unflattering color, team with one of your best colors close to your face to soften the effect.
  • Wear a scarf near to your face ; a collar over a jacket or add earrings in silver or white pearls.
  • Black is very heavy on your and will drain color from your face; choose a lower neckline if possible and introduce pearls or silver jewelry. Midnight blue is a great substitute.

Amongst this wide range of subtle almost sensual shades, there are  many colors that will happily lend themselves to the heavier items you need for the colder months.

If you've been determined a Soft Summer, Cool Summer or Light Summer - then you're probably not a true Season at all.
