Clear Spring Eye Makeup

You can create endless clear spring makeup looks. In this case, we’re showcasing our favorite spring color combinations based on the unique features of this color type.

  • Light blue eyes and medium golden blonde hair- This color combo includes two medium light shades. To follow suit, we also included medium light makeup colors. We chose a subtle medium brown shadow and slate green liner to tie together this color combo. The greenish tint combines the two color features.
  • Green-blue eyes and dark golden blonde hair –  Green and red are complimentary colors on the color wheel. They look gorgeous pared together. We emphasized the stunning eye color by using red tones in the shadow and liner. 
  • Yellow green eyes and bright copper hair- Both the hair and eye color are very warm toned with greens, yellows, and reds. We continued with this warm and bright color theme and used a medium-light brighter copper shadow and a darker, brighter copper liner. 
  • Hazels eyes and medium golden brown hair– Both brows and eyes have beautiful darker brown tones. When brown is present in all of the features, we like to go with a smokey eye look. This time, we wanted to play off of the green, too, and used a smokey green shadow and a greenish brown liner.

Eye Shadow

The clear spring makeup colors can sure create a gorgeous eye shadow palette. (In fact, you’ll find these tones in almost every spring eye makeup palette and maybe even a few in fall palettes.)

You have a wide variety of medium, bright and warm options. When it comes to choosing eye shadows look for brighter, clear tones with vibrant yellows, oranges, reds and darker greens and brown.

The clear spring season is dominantly clear and bright and this is the same for the eye shadow colors. Avoid cooler tones like rich silvers and purple blues.

Eyeliner

Eyeliner colors for clear spring range from beautiful medium neutrals to medium and medium fashion oranges, greens, and yellows.

Again, the consistent trend here is medium, clear and bright. Avoid cool and extremely light and dark tones. 

Mascara

 

With  your natural coloring being in the medium shade range, you want to avoid stark dark colors. This is especially true with mascara. 

Instead do toned down warm brown and charcoal tinted mascara if you are wanting to create a beautiful blend.

However, that doesn’t mean you can’t wear black mascara. It just means your black mascara may draw attention away from your beautiful natural colors instead of adding to them. The attention may shift to your lashes first.

Brow Filler Colors

Your eyebrow pencil should match your natural hair color. Unfortunately, this sometimes mean you might need to mix and match a few shades to get that perfect shade. 

The color listed on the brow filler should be labeled medium or bright and should have warm undertones.  For example medium golden blonde or bright copper.

Clear Spring Makeup Colors for Face

Your natural skin tones will be an easy guide to help you find the perfect foundation and blush colors.

Clear springs have noticeable warm tones. (Your veins may appear greenish.) This means you’ll want to look for a NW on N on bottles for face makeup.

Foundation

When a makeup artist color tests you for foundation, one thing they look for is undertone. When color testing a clear spring, your undertone will likely be easy to spot.

Foundation bottles almost always have undertones clearly marked on the bottle.  If you’re a clear spring, you should look for the NW and N on the bottle. (Usually on the bottom.)

Blush

When choosing blush colors, you’ll again want to look for colors you would describe as warm and bright or neutral and bright.

 

You’ll also want to gravitate toward copper shades like golden and copper bronzers, and neutral or warm pinks. Since you are medium complected, you won’t need to use much blush. Apply lightly to start and build to your perfect shade. Avoid purplish plums and extremely dark red shades. 

Clear Spring Lipstick

The best lipstick color for the clear spring color season is going to have clear, warm, and bright tones. 

Colors like nude coppers, neutral pinks, and warm orange reds.

Avoid very dark colors with cool tones like dark magentas, purples, and cool reds.   

Conclusion: Clear Spring Makeup Colors

Clear spring makeup colors are warm and medium shades. (Clear and bright being the most dominant factors.)

coppers, goldens, browns and green makeup colors compliment clear spring features such as bright blue, green-blue, yellow-green, and hazel eyes.

 All the makeup palettes also highlight this color seasons medium-dark golden blonde shades, bright copper, and medium brown hair shades. Skin-tones vary from light to tan and have warm neutral and neutral undertones.
