Why Your Lipstick Shouldn't Match Your Season.

Have you ever been told that your lipstick has to match your color season? That if you're a Spring, you should wear peachy corals, or if you're an Autumn, you need warm brick reds? At Color Class, we're challenging one of the biggest rules in traditional color analysis. Welcome to the first episode of our new series, “The Power of One Change,” where we explore how a single adjustment can completely transform your look. Today, we're diving into lipstick—and why the shade that flatters you most may have far less to do with your season than you've been told. For decades, seasonal color systems have linked lipstick recommendations directly to palettes. But after years of working with clients, we've noticed the same problem over and over again: people saying their lipstick turns orange, looks disconnected from their face, or simply doesn't feel right. Our answer? Your lipstick doesn't belong to your season—it belongs to your face. In this video, Sara and Lucinda break down: • Why traditional seasonal lipstick charts often fail • The surprising role neutral skin tones play in makeup choices • Why many warm-season lipsticks can appear too orange • How to determine whether your skin is warm, cool, or neutral • How depth, contrast, softness, and clarity affect lipstick selection • Why blush follows many of the same rules Using the same model, we compare a classic “Spring” lipstick, a neutral rose, and a cooler pink to show how dramatically lipstick can change the overall harmony of the face. Could one small change completely transform your makeup? Watch to find out. Join us for the next video in this series, where we'll tackle another powerful transformation: brows.
