Best vs. Avoid

Choose these colors instead of common alternatives to stay in harmony with your season.

Choose Tomato Red

#D06040

Instead of Burgundy

#5A2030

Tomato red is warm and lively - burgundy is too deep and muted for warm spring.

Choose Golden Yellow

#E8B830

Instead of Lemon Yellow

#E8E040

Golden yellow has the warmth you need - lemon yellow is too cool and acidic.

Choose Warm Teal

#2A9880

Instead of Icy Blue

#A0C8E0

Warm teal brings out your golden undertones - icy blue fights your warmth.

Choose Coral Pink

#E08870

Instead of Cool Pink

#D0A0B0

Coral pink harmonizes with your warmth - cool pink looks disconnected.

Choose Ivory

#F0E8D0

Instead of Optic White

#FFFFFF

Ivory has the warm base that matches your coloring better than stark white.

Choose Peridot Green

#88B838

Instead of Forest Green

#1A3A1A

Peridot green is vibrant and warm - forest green is too dark and cool.

Outfit Guide

Casual Warm Spring

Golden yellow knit + cream chinos + camel loafers + gold watch.

Avoid: Cool gray sweatsuit - too washed out and disconnected from your warmth.

Workwear Warm Spring

Camel blazer + coral silk blouse + warm beige trousers + cognac pumps.

Avoid: Charcoal suit with a pale blue shirt - too corporate-cool for your warm energy.

Evening Warm Spring

Tomato red wrap dress + gold statement earrings + metallic bronze clutch + nude heels.

Avoid: Black dress with silver accessories - you need warmth and color, not cool minimalism.

Warm Weather

Coral linen shorts + ivory eyelet top + tan sandals + gold hoop earrings.

Avoid: Pastel or icy colors that drain the warmth from your complexion.

Cold Weather

Camel wool coat + warm teal cashmere sweater + chocolate trousers + brown boots.

Beauty, Hair & Accessories

Your complete guide to makeup, hair colors, accessories, and more.

Makeup

Foundation Undertone

Warm golden or yellow-based foundation with a natural radiant finish.

Avoid: Cool pink or neutral foundations that look ashy against your warm skin.

Blush

Warm peach, coral, and golden pink blushes. Cream or gel formulas for a fresh glow.

Avoid: Dusty rose, mauve, or berry blushes that dull your warmth.

Lip Colors

Coral red, warm pink, peach, and golden nude lipsticks. Glossy or satin finishes.

Avoid: Blue-based reds, fuchsia, or cool berry tones that fight your warmth.

Eyeshadow

Warm bronze, golden brown, peach, and terra-cotta shades. Gold shimmer for impact.

Avoid: Cool gray, silver, or icy blue shadows that look disconnected.

Hair

Natural Hair Colors

Golden brown, copper, warm auburn, honey blonde, and strawberry tones.

Avoid: Ash brown, cool blonde, or jet black that clash with your golden undertones.

Hair Highlights

Honey, caramel, and copper highlights that enhance your natural warmth.

Avoid: Pearl, ash, or silver highlights that mute your golden glow.

Accessories

Metals & Jewelry

Yellow gold, rose gold, copper, and warm brass. Chunky gold pieces are perfect.

Avoid: Silver, white gold, or platinum that feel too cool for your warm energy.

Glasses Frames

Gold metal, warm tortoise, coral, or camel-colored frames.

Avoid: Silver, black, or pastel-colored frames that wash you out.
