True Summer Colour Palette: Best Colours, Makeup & Hair
True Summer is one of the 12 colour seasons. It belongs to the Summer family (cool undertone) and is the purest version of its family, with a clear undertone. If you're a True Summer, these shades make your skin look clear and your eyes bright; colours far from this palette tend to make you look tired or washed out.

Quick tips
- Wear your signature colours near your face: tops, scarves and collars.
- Test in daylight by a window; indoor light makes everyone look warmer.
- Compare against a warm colour of the same depth to see the difference.
