Why Caitriona is a True Summer

  • Undertone

    A cool, rose-blue cast to the skin — silver and cool-based colours sit cleanly against it.

  • Depth

    Medium depth — mid-tone colours match the natural level of contrast in the features.

  • Season quality

    The overall effect is rosy — the defining quality of every True Summer, Caitriona included.
