Clear Spring style works best at high saturation. Build outfits with one big color statement and supporting neutrals. A tomato red coat over warm cream. A bright teal silk against navy. Muted, dusty, or 'tasteful' hues make the face look sick rather than chic. Patterns want clear, distinct colors, not blended tones. Lipstick wants to be a real lipstick: true red or warm coral, not a 'your lips but better' nude.

  Pulls down your sparkle

The biggest Clear Spring mistake is dressing in 'safe' muted tones to look professional. Beige cardigans, dusty taupe blouses, sage green knits. These mute the face, and a muted Clear Spring reads as tired. Lean into the saturation. Another mistake: warm undertones in foundation. Some Clear Springs are warmer than others. Check the back of the jaw before committing.

• Clear Spring vs Clear Winter: what's the difference?

  Both have high contrast and saturation. Clear Spring is warm. Golden, fresh, sun-on-water. Clear Winter is cool. Icy, jewel-toned, snow-on-mountain. Look at the undertone of your skin under natural light to tell them apart.

• Can Clear Springs wear pastels?

  Cautiously. Pastels can be too muted for your high-saturation requirement. If you wear them, brighten with a vivid scarf, lip, or bag near the face.

• What's the best lipstick for Clear Spring?

  True red, warm coral, bright pink, and rich watermelon. Anything with clear warm saturation. Skip dusty mauves, muted nudes, or cool plums. They'll make your face look tired.

• What hair color suits a Clear Spring?

  Dark warm brown, espresso with warm undertones, near-black with shine. Highlights should warm the hair, not lighten it. Cool ash or platinum will fight your face.

• Should Clear Spring wear silver or gold?

  Polished yellow gold suits you best, with rich jewel-tone stones. Cool silver can work in small doses but yellow gold near the face is the safer bet.

• Which celebrities are Clear Spring?

  Megan Fox, Anne Hathaway, Zooey Deschanel, Olivia Wilde, and Eva Mendes are commonly typed as Clear Springs. The shared signal is dark warm hair against clear, bright eyes.
