Soft Summer colour palette
Soft Summer is a cool-neutral, medium, low-contrast, soft colour season: muted, cool and understated.
What Soft Summer looks like
Your colouring is blended and low-contrast, with a cool-neutral cast: skin that can look slightly olive or rosy, ash-brown or dark-ash-blonde hair, and grey-blue, grey-green or soft hazel eyes. Greyed, dusty colours such as dusty rose, eucalyptus, faded denim and mauve look expensive on you, while bright, saturated or high-contrast colours wear you instead.
