Light Spring color palette
No selfie. No photo. Your season comes from your answers, so lighting and filters can’t move it.
Light Spring is the lightest warm color season: delicate warm pastels like peach blossom, buttercup and light warm aqua, with very little contrast.
Light Spring is the palest corner of Spring: warm colors held at low saturation, so everything reads soft rather than vivid.

Are you a Light Spring?
Swatch Fan reads two things, your undertone and your depth, so it places you in one of six families rather than all twelve. For Light Spring that family is Spring — the same colors, one step wider. The twelve-season split adds a third axis, clarity, which the quiz does not measure.
Not sure between two?
The commonest reason a result feels wrong is a near miss between two seasons. These pages settle the ones people actually get stuck on.
