Common Questions
Is Soft Autumn warm or cool?
Warm-neutral. Soft Autumn leans warm but muted — golden and earthy rather than vivid, sitting between Soft Summer and True Autumn.
What colours should a Soft Autumn avoid?
Anything bright, icy or high-contrast — fuchsia, icy blue, pure black and optic white all overpower a soft, low-contrast face. Swap them for dusty, warm-muted versions.
Is my black cocoa or jet?
Cocoa. A soft dark brown reads far better on you than jet black, which is too heavy and drains your gentle depth.
