Choosing cosmetics for the Summer color type

The arrival of summer is the ideal moment to revamp your beauty regimen, particularly if you want to coordinate your makeup with your seasonal skin tone. If you identify as a Summer color type, you should select cosmetics that accentuate your best features and accentuate your naturally cool undertones. Summer types typically have pink or blue undertones and are light and soft in appearance; therefore, for a radiant and fresh look, your cosmetics should accentuate these cool tones.

Choose blushes and foundations for your face that have a peach or pink base instead of a yellow one. These tones will accentuate your inherent glow while blending in perfectly with your complexion. Cool-toned eyeshadow and liner hues like gentle blues, lavenders, and silvers will accentuate your eyes without overpowering them. A color that is too warm might compete with your chilly undertones.

Choose lipsticks and glosses in muted berry or rosy pink hues for your lips. These hues will go well with your overall appearance in addition to enhancing your natural lip color. Always keep in mind that harmony and lightness are the keys, so choose colors that accentuate your natural beauty and effortless elegance.

You can make sure that your look is both seasonally appropriate and flattering by selecting the correct cosmetics for your Summer skin type. Accept the chilly, delicate hues that accentuate your inherent beauty and take pleasure in a bright, new summer appearance!

Summer color type subtypes

Summer is a chilly color scheme with a lot of soft tones and moderate contrasts. Summer and spring are sometimes mistaken for one another, particularly if the girl has light hair. However, summer is associated with warmth, while spring is associated with coldness.

In total, there are three summer subtypes:

• light;
• cold;
• soft.

The fourth variety, ruby summer, is extremely uncommon. Despite the striking contrasts in this appearance, only the three subtypes listed are included in the main classification.

These girls, who are typically blondes with light skin and eyes, are known as light summer. Most frequently, the iris is light gray, green, or blue.

As the name implies, everything in the summer is noticeably cold, including the skin, hair, and eyes. Dark chestnut to light brown hair. The skin tone is cool, with hints of peach, pink, or olive.

Since soft summer is defined as autumn or winter, it is frequently a contentious subtype; however, with careful examination, summer notes can be distinguished.

A broad range of hair colors, from blond to dark chestnut, characterize soft summer. Typically, eyes are brown with a green tint, gray, or gray-green. Gentle summer verges into fall, so there may be warm undertones in skin or hair, particularly from sun exposure.

Tone

The primary requirement for foundation is to resemble skin tone. A summer color type should have a cool undertone, which could be peach, olive, or pink depending on the skin tone.

An approximate foundation color palette is provided here:

Teint Idole Ultra Wear foundation (Lancome No. 008) has a pink, chilly undertone. It is a translucent layer that is hardly perceptible on the skin and has a weightless texture.

The Avon "Calm Shine" cream in the shade Ivory is also appropriate for girls with fair skin.

The Bourjois "Healthy Mix" foundation No. 55 is appropriate for dark skin, but once more, you must pay attention to the undertone.

Eyes

The key to summer color type makeup is to avoid going overboard in order to maintain the skin’s inherent softness. Makeup artists frequently advise summer girls to wear nude makeup, but bright colors are appropriate for evening events.

Depending on the kind of makeup, you can use a dark brown pencil or liner as well as a traditional black one to create arrows.

Out of all the black products designed to work with the interlash and arrows, we suggest L’Oreal’s "Superstar" superliner. You can draw the arrows’ thin tails and shade their cavities with the liner’s flexible felt tip.

Among the traditional pencils, Maybelline New York’s "Expression Kajal" in black is the most popular. Its formula is waterproof and its lead is moderately soft, making it appropriate for use on mucous membranes as well as eyelids.

For instance, NYX "Slim Eye Pencil" Nos. 902, 904 914, or 931, which are dark brown pencils, work well. This line features 29 distinct lead colors from the brand, ranging from bright to classic. An excellent choice for makeup in unusual colors.

Use traditional black mascara. Here, give your preferences priority. When it comes to our suggestions, Vivienne Sabo and her "Cabaret" mascara come highly recommended. This is an excellent lengthening mascara that can be purchased for a reasonable 350 rubles.

Consider giving Clinique’s "High Impact Curling Mascara" a closer look if you like to wear upscale or high-end makeup. The product lengthens and curls eyelashes with a curved brush.

Regarding the shadows, you should concentrate on the kind of makeup used here. Nude and shadows in muted tones of beige, peach, or pink work well for daytime or office wear.

The Warm Neutral palette from NYX’s "Ultimate" series is a good choice. It comes in sixteen neutral tones with different saturation levels. The colors work well together to create makeup in nude tones for both daytime and evening wear.

Maybelline offers a palette called "Nudes of New York" that is comparable. sixteen additional cells in neutral hues.

Bright tones include the following:

• for a cold summer – purple shadows with a cold undertone, as well as pink and brown. Use gray with caution – it can give a sickly look;
• for a soft summer – pastel or its combination with dark colors. The main thing is to create a transition from light to dark to balance the brightness of the makeup. You can also use gray-brown and cold pink shadows;
• too dark colors do not suit a light summer – it is better to take peach or something from pastel.

It is advisable to purchase individual colored shadows such as purple, gray, and brown, as most large palettes contain shades that are unsuitable for most people and will not be used.

Stellary’s palette of single shadows is excellent.

Pupa’s shadows are one-tone. The matte "Matt Eyeshadow" is the most widely used of all the options because it blends smoothly and provides a pure color. There are 24 shades in the palette, some of which go well with the summer color type:

• 508 – amethyst;

• 507 – dark purple;

• 512 – gray-green.

Eyebrows

Use of gray-brown, taupe, or gray-beige is advised for summer-colored eyebrows. Classic eyebrow design guidelines state that they should be one or two shades darker than your hair. It’s acceptable to make your eyebrows one tone lighter than your hair if you have dark hair and a cold summer color type.

Among all the eyebrow products, we will focus on a few that work particularly well. Take Manly Pro’s tint, for instance. It works wonderfully for both brow filling and thin lines. Because they have a hint of cold, the colors 03, 04, 06, and 08 are the best choices for summer. Additionally, there is shade 02, which is a neutral brown.

Regarding pencils, have a closer look at the automatic pencil Art Brow from budget brand TF. Shade 04, a gray-brown, is appropriate.

The self-sharpening Relouis "Brow WOW" eyebrow pencil in shade 02 is appropriate for girls with fair hair.

Blush

Blush in peach, pink, beige, and coral tones will help girls with summer color types revitalize their faces.

We suggest the Baby Pink matte blush Pixel Soft Matte Blush by Lime Crime among the light pink shades. They give the face a youthful appearance by lying on it in a thin, transparent layer without drawing attention to themselves.

Note brand’s shade 06 has a nice pink-beige blush.

Lips

Lip design is the last step in makeup application. It is advised to use lipsticks in berry shades, ranging from light to rich, for those with summer color types. Matte lipstick is the best option because it will accentuate your lightness and softness.

Girls adore Vivienne Sabo Matte Magnifique’s liquid matte lipstick. Burgundy-plum shade 217 will work well for the summer color type.

You can apply a bright berry lip gloss called "GRAPE JELLY" or a light pink lip gloss like Anastasia Beverly Hills’ "Venus."

A lovely selection of berry-hued matte lipsticks from Avon’s "Matte Superiority" line. "Berry Cocktail" and "Wild Cherry" shades work well.

Color memo for the summer color type

The key to selecting makeup for the Summer color type is to use complementary shades to accentuate your naturally cool-toned features. Pastel colors and cool tones that accentuate their subtle undertones are great choices for summer types. To bring out the best in your look, choose makeup that complements these hues, being careful to select items that accentuate the natural radiance of your skin and maintain a youthful, vibrant appearance overall.
