Hair, eyes, skin and three color options
The hair of an autumn girl gives no reason for sadness and discontent. How can one not like a fiery shock of all sunny shades: copper, bronze, reddish-chestnut. They can be golden brown or dark chestnut, but always with an amazing radiant and warm undertone.
Autumn eyes are bright, bottomless, with golden splashes or a shining rim. There are completely different ones: light blue, gray-green, soft amber, cognac. The look is warm, alluring with mischievous rays. Eyebrows in the same tone as hair.
The skin can be very light, dark, but natural blush is rare. And he’s of no use to Autumn. A peach-colored face in golden beige tones does not require jewelry. Often autumn girls are marked with a scattering of reddish freckles and burn in the sun.
If the listed signs are difficult to apply to yourself, then a description of the subtypes will help bring final clarity.
Soft autumn is the calmest version of this color type. Reminds me of Summer, so there may be some ashy notes. Eyes can be gray-blue or amber-brown. Wheat-blond, light brown hair and soft beige skin add romance and mystery to the image.
Warm autumn (natural) is a classic color combination with little contrast. Copper blond, bright red, deep brown hair color. The skin is predominantly peachy, but can also be ivory tones, in most cases with playful freckles. Eyes – shining amber, soft hazel, green, cognac.
Dark (deep) autumn is similar to Winter, but less contrasting, with reddish notes. Girls with dark beige or bronze skin belong to this type. The hair of beauties is usually dark brown and chocolate. The eyes are amazing dark green, deep brown or even black. The shades of late autumn triumph.
Autumn color type test
Place a smooth, clear black cloth on your face. Too mournful? Does it make your face look pale? Makes you want to add some accessories?
If you have dark brown hair and dark skin, try replacing black with dark brown or dark green, and always with a distinct warm yellow tint. Has the pallor disappeared? Have golden sparkles become noticeable in your eyes? Freckles no longer seem alien, but rather emphasize the warm tone of the skin?
The red-brown color of rust perfectly sets off the warm color of Autumn. Do you notice how your eyes sparkle? Is your face fresher and more alive?
If “yes” to all questions, your color type is Autumn.

Suitable shades
In addition to subtypes, there are colors where the color of the eyes, hair, and skin are similar in palette or completely different.
Natural
In this case, the lady’s appearance is in the same range. For example, golden skin, brown eyes, brown hair with a copper sheen. The most suitable colors of clothing are pumpkin, peach, green, ocher, cherry, dark chocolate.
Contrasting
The combination of eyes and hair stands out with particular brightness. Gray, brown or green eyes sparkle against light or dark skin. Hair is brown, red or straw colored. When choosing a wardrobe, they recommend a combination of yellow and green palettes, taupe and olive, plain bright or neutral things.
Bright
Women have one striking element of appearance - eyes, hair or skin. Saturated colors of clothing are allowed - turquoise, orange, terracotta, carrot, red brick.
Light
Appearance in the same range - beige skin, eyes light brown, green, gray. Warm blonde hair with a caramel tint. We recommend sand, pale pink, yellow, lemon, corn, gray sand, banana peel.
Deep Autumn (Dark)
Dark shades of hair and irises are often misleading, which is why this subtype is most often confused with Dark Winter. How to distinguish Autumn from Winter? All autumn shades are warm.

This is a great way to spice up your wardrobe a little. For whom is orange a good choice? For women who are not afraid to emphasize their energy! But be careful - this color should be handled with extreme caution. Therefore, choose orange accessories - a hat, gloves, handkerchief or wallet. You can also choose clothes that will become a bright accent of the whole image. This could be a sweater, cotton blouse or skirt. However, try not to combine these clothes in one outfit - only a few women can get away with such a set.

Basic wardrobe for the Autumn color type
Colors should be non-contrasting and muted. Warm soft shades from beige to dark chocolate are ideal.
For basic colors, take beige or khaki. Choose additional colors for your wardrobe that are low-contrast and more saturated.
Use not only brown tones, bring other colors from your palette into the image - use the table of color combinations in clothes to make it easier to select harmonious sets.
Blue
Blue or cyan is a favorite color for many. It is the color of harmony, loyalty, peace, sympathy, trust, honor, serenity and communication. Therefore, it is not surprising that it is actively used in the design of social networks and logos. When choosing a blue or blue color, give preference to a heavenly shade. It is he who activates a good mood and harmony in the soul.

Makeup
Often autumn women are drawn to summer colors in their makeup. Do not do that! Cool shades will make you look older and your face will look tired.
The palette for everyday makeup should not be flashy. It is enough just to highlight natural shades.
Festive makeup can be in rich colors.
or like this:
Fired Brick
Out of the frying pan and into the fire - a complex, multi-level, complex brick shade, which has a hint of semi-dry red and even some Indian spices. It cannot be called provocative because there is no known categoricalness of carmine or Catalan bullfighting red here: Fired Brick is noble in an autumnal way and in some ways even phlegmatic - the latter is responsible for the earthy brown undertone. This is a very “expensive” color, which is fully revealed on the best eco-leather outfits and jewelry with an almost baroque aesthetic.
