As the summer sun gives you a natural tan, you might be wondering if your armocromia color palette should change. The good news is that your palette can shift slightly in the summer, depending on your skin’s undertones and how much sun exposure you get. In this post, I’ll answer some common questions and guide you on how to make the most of your summer glow with the right colors.

1. Does Your Color Palette Change with Your Summer Tan?

Yes, your skin tone changes in the summer, often becoming warmer or darker. This affects which colors look best on you. Your colors might become more intense, and you may need to adjust the intensity of the colors you wear. Also, if your skin becomes warmer, the colors you choose may need to shift to match that warmth.

These slight changes are something I often explain during color analysis consultations, where I show how to recognize the different intensities and temperatures of the same shades.

2. How to Keep Your Colors on Point While Tanning

While getting a tan, you want to choose colors that complement your deeper skin tone. Here’s how to do it based on your armocromia season:

Spring Types: Warm shades like salmon, light yellow, and mint green will highlight your tan without clashing.
Summer Types: Even though your skin is cooler, soft pastels like pale blue, lavender, and baby pink will still look great with your tan.
Autumn Types: Embrace earthy tones like terracotta, camel, and deep green to enhance the warmth in your skin.
Winter Types: Bold, contrasting colors like emerald green, cobalt blue, and deep red will create a striking look against your bronzed skin.

3. Makeup Tips to Complement Your Tanned Skin

The right makeup can make a big difference in highlighting your tan and boosting your natural beauty. Here’s what to keep in mind for each season:

Spring Types: Go for peach blush, a golden highlighter, and nude or soft pink lipstick to keep your look fresh and glowing.
Summer Types: Soft, cool-toned makeup works best. Opt for light pink blush, silver highlighter, and light rose or nude lip shades.
Autumn Types: Embrace warm makeup tones like bronze eyeshadow, copper highlighter, and deep berry lipstick to complement your tan.
Winter Types: Go for bold makeup like deep red lipstick, smoky eyes with shades of grey or navy, and a high-contrast blush to balance your bronzed skin.
