BRIGHT SPRINGS

COMPARISON

Bright Spring sits on the seasonal flow chart between True Spring and Bright Winter. Bright Spring colours are the brightest in the Spring family. They are less warm, darker, and more saturated than other Springs.

Neighbouring the Bright Winter, according to flow theory, makes the Bright Spring palette cooler, brighter and darker than other Spring Seasons.

Bright Winters and Bright Springs have bright colouring and high contrast in their features, but Bright Winters have a somewhat higher level of contrast than Bright Springs.

Bright Winters have cool (blue) undertones, whereas Bright Springs have warm (golden, yellow) undertones. Also, their colours are slightly darker than Bright Spring colours.

Technically you can create colour combinations by mixing and matching colours in your colour palette. You can combine your accent colours with your basic colours or dark or light neutral colours.

Bright Spring is a sub-season with the highest level of contrast. Therefore, you can pull off colour combinations that would look bright and vibrant. Complementary, triadic and tetradic colour combinations would suit you the best. They provide high contrast because they are on the opposite side (such as blue and coral) or far apart on the colour wheel. They appear brighter and more prominent and create a bold and vibrant look.

For triadic and tetradic combinations, it's better to use one dominant colour and the others as accent colours to balance your look. 

You can also pair dark and light colours to create value contrast, but you look better if you use other colour contrast options within your palette, such as combining a neutral with a bright accent. Either pair a dark neutral with a lighter, brighter accent colour or a light neutral and a different, darker accent colour. 

PATTERNS&PRINTS

Bright Springs have many bright and vibrant colours on its colour plate. Therefore, there are many colourful pattern options available for your taste.

Patters should contain only the bright spring colours and have high contrast so that they can harmonize with your natural look. Medium-scale patterns and prints would pop up the bright colours. Avoid faded colours and blended or minimal patterns; use medium value, busy, dotty, geometric designs instead.

MAKE-UP COLOURS

Foundation&Concealer

Your skin tone is neutral and warm; it appears bright and clear. Skin colour-matching foundations and concealers would keep your skin tone as brilliant as it is. We recommend natural, peach-based, and dewy foundations; avoid yellow or blue-based colours.

Blush

Depending on your skin tone, your blush colours are pink and warm red. If you have a warmer skin tone, warm reds are a better option; if you are on the slightly cooler side, choose pinkish ones. 

Lipstick

You can enjoy bright, bold, glossy lipstick colours; they will align with your natural brightness but try to keep the same intensity with your eye makeup and lipstick colours.

Eye shadows

Your bright colour eyes contrast with your skin tone. Therefore you should choose the medium value and bright colours for your eye makeup. Complete your eye makeup with shiny, shimmery finishes.

Eyeliner&Mascara

You also have the option to choose many bright eyeliner colours in your palette. They will bring out sparkly eyes. For mascara, we recommend you choose dark brown tones.
