Face and Skin

Gentle and mostly clean products for the face. Tinted SPF provides some coverage but it is light. Heavy matte foundation is a bad ideas for naturally luminous winter color types.

The absolute best day cream. Again, nothing to do with True Winter colors, but it is the foundation on my face each morning that I build my True Winter makeup on top of.
Pro-Collagen Marine Cream SPF 30

This is my new favorite tinted face product. It is a glowly, light-weight tinted sunscreen that is buildable to your desired level of coverage. As a True Winter I wear shade 26.

Another great tinted broad spectrum SPF50. It goes on light and dewy with a damp sponge and is buildable to the coverage you desire.

This is the greatest under eye concealer. As a True Winter, I use color very light 1, but am also curious about very light 2 that has a cool pink undertone.

Pops of Color

Color and contrast is important for winter types. Add one of these bold berry colors to your makeup routine.

Merit's creamy flush balm is the most beautiful blush. Cool and bright shade LE BON BON is perfect for both a bright winter and a true winter. Choose color cheeky for a cool pink or apres for a berry red. Both shades are buildable and perfect otpions...

I love a sheer glossy lip in a bright berry red. Winter types look best in a glossy lip. Try shade WILD! It's my favorite!

High pigment, high shine lip gloss in a beautiful, clear berry shade. Choose “berry” for the best true winter shade.

Eyes

Shimmery, light reflecting eyeshadow is a must for winter types. The blackest mascara is the best option for winter types. Black is your strongest neutral.

This brow pencil is universally flattering. As a True Winter, my brows are very dark naturally. But this helps me fill in any sparse areas while still looking very natural.

I use this solo shadow from Merit beauty in color Glace. It is a shimmery, sheer, light pink.

Great shimmery cream to powder eye shadow. I tried several colors in person. My favorite cool shade is the lavender. But I think primrose, magnolia, and midnight can also work for a winter depending on your own coloring.

Highly pigmented and light reflecting. For cool shades that suit a true winter, choose colors: luster and aurora. A little goes a long way with this one.

Hands down the best tubing mascara out there. My lashes are so long and lifted! Always choose black mascara for True Winter.

After trying a tubing mascara years ago, I have never looked back. True Winters should choose black for mascara.

True Winter Hair

Usually true winter hair is very dark brown to black. True winters also gray beautifully. Your natural hair color, including gray is always your best option. But if you're not ready to embrace the gray, then join me in covering it up with these dark ...

I use this deep, dark, double neutral shade to cover my gray and get me back to my naturally very dark brown hair.

Perfume

While there is no color in this perfume, it's bright bold fruity scent lends to a winter's bright bold colors.

While technically not at all about True Winter Colors, this is part of my everyday beauty. This is a beuatiful fruity floral perfume.
