Autumn coloring is warm and rich.

Some descriptive words for the Autumn seasonal palette are warm, rich, and spicy.

  • If you are an Autumn that means you have a warm skin tone and hair that is typically darker than medium brown.
  • You have a lot of depth to your coloring with golden undertones including a warm undertone to your skin. You may have peachy skin, which is a warm type of pink.
  • You have a deep, earth tone quality to your eye color such as black-brown, deep to medium brown, bright brown, deep green, light to dark hazel, dark blue, mixed blue and green eyes with gray or/and yellow in them.
  • In general, your coloring is low in contrast but not as delicate as Spring and Summer. Some Autumns have a high contrast coloring but not as vivid as a Winter.
  • A light, muted but rich coloring which appears mousy and a mix of both cool and warm tone might make you look neutral. But you still have some depth of color with an overall deep and warm look.

Not all Autumns are alike. Autumns may be Warm, Deep, or Soft.

Does your hair have prominent red tones?
