The Light Spring lipstick formula
A reliable lipstick formula for Light Spring balances undertone, saturation, finish, and how it interacts with the rest of your makeup. The shade should support your warm peach-ivory undertone and repeat the same color temperature as the rest of your palette.
If a shade looks almost right but slightly disconnected, check the finish first. Light Spring usually looks best with sheer, gloss, or balm; a finish that is too flat, too glittery, too heavy, or too glossy can make the color read wrong even when the undertone is close.
