Discover Your Power Colors! What Season Are You?

Back when I was a little girl my mom came home one day and tried to figure out all of our family’s seasons. Are you a Spring, Summer, Autumn or Winter? It was all the rage at the time and it opened up a whole new world for me. Little did I know I wasn’t “supposed” to wear beige…ever!!! But once I figured it out, it made all the difference. Wearing the right colors for your skin tone, eye and hair color make you look radiant! Wearing the wrong colors make you look tired and well, sickly. Who wants to look sick?

So follow this little diagram and it’ll help you find out what season you are!

If you’re unsure as to whether you look better in navy blue and charcoal grey or honey beige and soft brown, then put something bright pink and bright orange up to your face. If you look better in the pink, it means you have cool undertones and you’re either a Summer or a Winter. If orange looks better on you, it means you have warm/golden undertones and you’re either a Spring or an Autumn.

Summer complexions have blue or pink (cool) undertones. (When you blush you go rosy, not peachy) Your skin is pale and pink. Most Summers are natural blondes or brunettes with light-colored eyes. Gwenyth Paltrow, Michele Pfeiffer and Jennifer Anniston are Summers. Your power colors are cool blues and soft neutral colors but stay away from black and orange! Blue-red yes, orange-red no. Wear silver instead of gold.
