![]() Being a Warm Spring makes so much sense to me! I previously had my coloring done with someone in the 12 season system and was told I was a Soft Autumn. Definitely the brown top is so much better! Here is what she said after receiving her Warm Spring results from me: “Wow, I’m Amazed & Relieved at my results. She was previously colour analyzed as a Soft Autumn in a 12 season system. These combinations will swallow up your delicate appearance and make you disappear behind them.Colour analysis is always about looking at the best colours for YOU. This might make other seasons look washed out, but on a Soft Summer, it is nothing but flattering.Īvoid pairing highly contrasting colours, especially those that sit opposite each other on the colour wheel, such as blue and orange. Generally, monochromatic colour combinations will look best on Soft Autumns. Another option is to mix a neutral with an accent of similar value, such as a medium brown with a similarly medium red. For example, you could pair a medium blue with a medium green. While hue contrast is not something Soft Autumn generally wear well, you can combine neighbouring hues as long as they have the same value. ![]() You can pair slightly different shades of the same hue, such as a lighter green with a darker one. The best way to achieve this is through monochromatic colour combinations. Therefore, your best colour combinations are those that complement each other. This season does not tolerate a lot of contrast. Soft Autumn's natural appearance blends rather than contrasts. Those are the combinations that repeat the level of contrast that is naturally present in your appearance. But certain combinations will look much better than others. Technically, you can combine any of the colours on the Soft Autumn palette with each other. ![]() Whereas if you lean more towards True Autumn, choose the more muted colours on the Soft Autumn palette – such as Golden Apricot, Muskmelon and Fern. If you lean more towards Soft Summer, opt for the warmer colours on the Soft Summer palette – such as Powder Pink, Garnet Rose and Oxblood Red. Depending on where you fall on the Soft Autumn spectrum, you can borrow some colours from your sister palettes since they are close enough to the Soft Autumn colour palette. ![]() Summer’s effect on Soft Autumn is to cool the colours slightly and make them softer.Ĭompared to the third Autumn season Dark Autumn, the colours share the same neutral-warm hue but are more muted and considerably lighter.Īs sister palettes, Soft Summer and True Autumn both share Soft Autumn’s aspects of muted and warm, respectively. Consequently, the colours are softer, slightly lighter, and less warm than those of True Autumn.Ĭompared to Soft Summer, the colours are warmer but otherwise similar – both are medium in value and muted. It falls at the Summer end of the Autumn palette. Soft Autumn sits between Soft Summer and True Autumn on the seasonal flow chart. Consequently, its colours are low in chroma and are not saturated at all. While there are lighter and darker colours, most of the colours cluster around the middle of the value scale.ĭue to its primary colour aspect, this Soft Autumn has the least tolerance for brightness. The colour palette is medium in value meaning neither light nor dark colours dominate it. Instead, there are more yellows, greens, and warm browns that are naturally yellow-based. And you will only see warmer shades of blue, like turquoise, that have a tint of yellow. Consequently, you will find fewer shades of blue (which is the coolest colour of all) on the palette. This means they contain more yellow than blue undertones. Thanks to this season’s secondary aspect, the colours lean towards the warm end of the scale but are not very warm. Soft Autumn colours contain more walnut, beige, and gold pigments, and therefore the eyes cannot appear grey. Why is that?Īs mentioned before, Soft Summer has a high content of grey pigments, which tones down the colours of their natural appearance. If your eyes seem greyish (even if they are greenish or have brown blotches), then you are likely a Soft Summer if they remain green, hazel, or olive, then you lean more towards Soft Autumn. If you are unsure whether your appearance is warmer or cooler, there is an easy way to find out: In natural daylight and without makeup, hold something grey to your face. The latter’s colouring contains more gentle, muted tones with a high content of grey and olive, whereas Soft Autumn’s colouring has more walnut and honey pigments. Both colour seasons are very similar, and the distinctions are subtle.īoth seasons’ primary colour aspect is muted – but while Soft Autumn is warm, Soft Summer is cool. Containing the most muted and toned-down of the Summer family’s colours, individuals who fall into the Soft Autumn category may very easily be mistaken for Soft Summers.
