Light Spring Color Palette

Light Spring Color Combinations

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.

Your color palette consists of light, bright, and warm hues, including a mix of cool, bright green and blue shades blended with warm tones.

Although you have low contrast in your features, your seasonal palette is not muted, and it benefits from a touch of contrast in your color combinations. For this, we recommend opting for complementary or analogous combinations, which involve pairing colors that are either far apart on the color wheel (e.g., coral and blue) or neighboring colors (e.g., blue and purple).

To introduce a subtle level of contrast, consider teaming a bright accent color with a light or dark neutral from your palette, even when they possess opposite values. Avoid high-contrast and bold combinations such as complementary, triadic, or tetradic schemes, as they may overpower your fresh and delicate appearance. Likewise, steer clear of monochromatic or neutral-only combinations, which can leave you looking washed out.

In your palette, you won't find true black as it tends to be too dark and cold against your light and warm features. Instead, opt for warmer gray and dark brown shades to achieve depth in your color combinations. You'll also find warmer white shades in your palette that can be used effectively in your outfits.

Patterns & Prints

Patters should contain only the light spring colours and have low contrast so that they will harmonize with your natural look. Small-scale and dense patterns and prints with rounded geometric patterns and loosely arranged delicate elements such as flowers, birds, butterflies, and leaves are good options for you.

Jewelry

Metals: For Light Spring, both warm and cool metals can be suitable, but gold is particularly reliable. The key consideration is that metals should be light in color to harmonize with the delicate and subtle coloring of Light Spring. Metals can be shiny, brushed, or matte, but it's best to avoid antiqued or oxidized finishes that darken the metal and clash with the lightness of your appearance. •

Gemstones: Light and refreshing gemstones such as turquoise, aventurine, pink amethyst, morganite, prasiolite, and aquamarine are excellent choices for Light Springs. These stones enhance the light, fresh, and delicate aesthetic characteristic of Light Spring complexions, contributing to a harmonious and appealing look.

Makeup

Every Season has its own iconic notes and scents

For Springs, floral and fruity notes are perfect choices. Such as peonies, orchids, cherry blossoms, roses, frangipani, lily of the valley, jasmine, ylang-ylang, violets, peach, plum and blackcurrant.
