Comprehensive breakdown of each palette

True Summer

Purely Cool Undertones

True Summers have distinctly cool, blue-based undertones. There is no warmth in your coloring, so you should avoid warm, golden colors.

Medium Contrast

There is a noticeable but not stark contrast between your hair, skin, and eyes. Your colors are neither too light nor too dark.

Graceful & Composed

You look best in colors that are calm and composed. Your palette is classic and elegant, avoiding the extremes of brightness or mutedness.

Bright Spring

Warm & Bright Undertones

Bright Springs have warm undertones but can handle very bright, clear colors. You need intensity and warmth in your palette to match your vibrant coloring.

High Contrast

There's strong contrast between your features. You have the coloring to carry bold, bright combinations and high-impact looks.

Bold & Electric

You shine in colors that are bright and saturated. Muted or dusty colors will drain your vitality, while bright colors make you glow.
