MAKEUP FOR SPRING TYPES


On left you can see eye shadow in salmon color with almond brown on the outer side. Spring types should avoid black mascaras, because they look too heavy on so delicate eyes and skin. Instead, they should decide for mascaras in brown color. They should also avoid black pencils, and instead decide for brownish colors or even white.


Do not get fooled: colors always look more intense when observing them in a box, then they actually look on skin. On left you can see typical spring pallet. Especially beautiful combinations are: almond brown, lime tree green and soft white; bright violet, gentle turquoise and ocher; gentle pink, lime tree green and almond brown; ocher, bright violet and again almond brown.
When applying eye makeup, spring types should apply the darkest color first, which is later smeared with brighter tones.       


MAKEUP FOR SUMMER TYPE


Pastel green eyelids with dark violet blue on the outer corners and brighter color on inner corners.    




Cold and powerful, but never too colorful colors are best option for summer types. If eye makeup is a bit too invasive, simply apply over bright powder.
Gray, from silver to anthracite and silver brown are ideal eye shadows for those who want to make their eyes more gentle. However, summer types can enjoy in color combinations like: violet, blue and and green; green, pale yellow and vivid pink; pink, violet and blue or blue, bright yellow and silver white.



MAKEUP FOR  AUTUMN TYPES



Dark eyes with naphtha tones on lids up to the eye arch; above that bright brown; on lower eyelid you can notice gentle salmon color.         




Autumn types can bring out the color of iris if applying strong and powerful colors. Among all copper and brown tones, autumn types look good with makeup in eggplant colors, lavender or green color of leaves. Among brighter colors autumn types should choose salmon, apricot and peach, and sunny yellow colors. On the left you can see autumn type palette. Especially beautiful on autumn type are following color combinations: lavender, eggplant and copper color; green color of leaves, peach and salmon color; eggplant, peach and sunny yellow color or lavender, color of green leaves and color of peach.
Advice: near lower eye edge apply darker color, and smear it with brighter.    

MAKEUP FOR WINTER TYPE


Winter types look best with only one color makeup- in this case petroleum green. 





Morbid, dark color of mallow, dull brown, anthracite, dark blue, dark green- winter types can play with many colors, as long as they do not apply all at once. Winter types do not need colorful combinations, but bright- dark contrasts. On the left you can see palette in typical winter colors. If winter types want to combine few different colors, they should choose among dull brown, pink and anthracite; color of mallow, nocturnal blue and just a trace of pink in order to brighten dark colors; dark green blended with nocturnal blue and again pink for brightening.
