Cool Summer is all about subtle elegance, freshness, and natural charm. Discover the colors, cosmetics, and styles that bring out the radiance of this type of beauty—from pastel pinks to cool blues and navy blue.
Cool Summer – elegance and freshness of cool tones
Cool Summer is a beauty type full of subtle harmony. It's characterized by freshness, delicacy, and natural charm, best accentuated by cool, pastel, and muted colors. If you belong to this type, carefully chosen colors will brighten your complexion and enhance your features.
- Complexion: porcelain, pink or cool beige (with a distinctly cool undertone).
- Eyes: blue, grey or green, often with a touch of turquoise.
- Hair: ash – from light blonde to cool, dark brown.
Your beauty doesn't favor warm colors—gold hues, orange, or warm beiges can make you look tired. Pastel pinks, lavender, cool blues, or navy blue, on the other hand, make you look fresh, young, and natural.
How is Cool Summer different from other types of Summer?
- Light Summer – brighter and more ethereal; loves whitened pastels.
- Muted Summer – prefers smoky, soft colors in cool or neutral tones.
- Cool Summer – the most expressive and “pure” of the summer types; its beauty is brought out by clear, cool shades of pink, blue and lavender.
Your colors – cool, pastel, sophisticated
You look best in:
- bases: pure white, navy blue, gray,
- accents: lavender, candy pink, blue, raspberry.
Avoid: warm yellow, gold, orange and beige tones – they can dull your beauty.
