Spring gal, don't wear heavy makeup it will weigh you down -- completely contradict the lightness of your being.  When you define your brows, don't use a distinct line, but rather use smaller lines in the direction the brows grow; this will give a more natural, animated effect.  For brow and eye definition, use brown or warm colors, rather than black, unless you are a Vital Spring.




Why should we try to wear makeup in our season?  What is the deeper purpose?  For some of the same reasons we may have come to the color analysis world: not only do we realize that certain colors harmonize with our body in our clothing choices, the same applies to our makeup.  But it's more than that... In our makeup choices, we are harmonizing with our body colors, such as our hair, eyes and skintone, but we are also harmonizing with our personality.  By choosing colors that have some of the same qualities as our personality, we present with more integrity, we enhance our true, inner beauty.

Striking Spring Makeup

Download Makeup List


Striking Spring (Bright or Vital Spring)
Dark hair (or platinum blonde) may give the impression of Winter, so you want to keep your colors pure.  Wear Spring's red lipstick, you can mix some brown in.  Light pinks and corals will be too light for you.  You might choose a deeper coral.  Use red-coral or yellowed red blush.  Choose cooler eyeshadow colors, such as blue, blue-violet, navy blue, turquoise or green.  You might try yellow green as a highlighter is your eyes are brown, or creamy yellow eyeshadow highlighter is good.  Eyeliner should be dark brown or gray, maybe even a muted black, or navy blue.

Lipsticks: mix some brown into warm spring's red, light pinks and corals may be too light, choose a deeper coral

Gray Haired Spring
Your hair may be lighter than blonde, which puts you into True Spring colors.  Red, pink or coral pink lipsticks and blush. Eyeshadow in blue-violet, blue and navy, or perhaps brown if your eyes are brown.  Highlight with creamy yellow or yellow green.  Line eyes with brown only if they are that color, use dark gray otherwise.

Pastel Spring (Light Spring)
Spring pink is perfect for you as lipstick and blush.  Do not use the coral or apricot as you are a cooler Spring. You can add brown to these to  make them more neutral.  Eyeshadows should be applied lightly to tone down warmth just a bit, but don't go fully into Summer colors.  Choose blue, turquoise, blue-violet with Spring brown for contour and yellow for highlight.
Lipsticks: spring pinks (coral and apricot are too warm)
