Soft Autumn ๐
Golden hour, but make it soft focus.
Soft Autumn is golden hour seen through a soft-focus lens. Your coloring is warm-neutral and muted, with gentle contrast and a natural, earthy warmth. Skin is often light to medium beige, golden beige or soft olive, and may look washed out in bright colors. Hair tends to be dark blonde, light to medium golden brown or soft auburn, often with a slightly ashy blend. Eyes are usually hazel, soft green, warm gray-green or light brown. You look most like yourself in dusty, warm shades like soft terracotta, peachy rose and warm rosewood. Clear brights and icy colors overwhelm you, while muted warmth makes you glow.
Best blush for Soft Autumn
Your best blushes look like a warm, sun-kissed shadow: soft terracotta, peachy rose, warm apricot-beige and muted coral. Satin and soft matte finishes melt into your skin, while very frosty or glittery formulas can look out of place. Cool bubblegum pinks and bright fuchsia sit on top of your skin. Apply blush slightly higher and blend into your temples, and consider a touch of warm bronzer to tie the look together.
Best lip colors for Soft Autumn
Warm, muted lip colors are your sweet spot: peachy nude, warm rosewood, soft terracotta, cinnamon rose and muted coral. Satin, creamy and balm formulas keep things soft and effortless. Avoid icy pinks, blue-based berries and very bright, clear shades that look like they belong on someone else. Your best red is a soft brick red or warm muted red with a hint of brown, the kind of red that whispers instead of shouts.
