From Fair to Deep: How to Create a Custom Lipstick That Complements Your Color Season and Skin Tone
Finding the perfect lipstick shade can feel like a painful, endless search—especially when you want something that truly matches your skin tone perfectly. If you’ve ever wondered why certain colors make you glow while others seem to wash you out, color season analysis is a great tool to help you understand which hues suit you best. And with the GoPlay LIPSKIT, you can create your own custom lip colors that are precisely tailored to your unique color profile in minutes. If you haven't read our previous blogs on color season analysis, let’s dive into how it works and how you can create your dream lipstick shades with the GoPlay LIPSKIT. Understanding Color Season Analysis Color season analysis categorizes skin tones into four main “seasons”: Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn. Each season has its specific undertones, influencing the shades that work best with your complexion. Here’s a quick breakdown: 1. Winter - Cool undertones with high contrast. Think bold reds and deep berries. Read more here. 2. Spring - Warm undertones with a fresh brightness. Look for vibrant corals and peachy pinks. Read more here. 3. Summer - Cool undertones but softer than Winter. Dusty roses and soft mauves shine here. Read more here. 4. Autumn - Warm undertones with a rich depth. Earthy browns and terracotta shades complement this profile. Read more here. Determining your season helps you identify the lip colors that will look the most natural and flattering on you. But, what if you could make these colors yourself? That’s where the GoPlay LIPSKIT steps in. Why Choose GoPlay LIPSKIT for Your Color Season Shades? Traditional lipstick shopping has its limits. You might find a color close to what you want, but subtle variations make all the difference when matching your seasonal profile.
