Blush pink on warm, clear skin tones (True Spring)
Close without landing: with warm, clear colouring, blush pink misses the True Spring palette by ΔE 11.6.
The answer
Close, but not a match. Blush pink sits just outside the True Spring palette. The nearest thing in the palette is #F5B7A0, ΔE 11.6 away. Under 12 reads as the same colour family; past 25 the two are visibly different colours.
It does not collide with anything on the season's avoid list, so the only question is distance.
How blush pink scores across all twelve seasons
Blush pink is an opinionated colour: Light Summer scores it 93 and Deep Autumn scores it 9. A gap that wide means the colour genuinely decides something, and getting it right is worth the effort.
True Spring sits 4 of twelve at 71, 22 points behind Light Summer. That gap is the honest size of the compromise, not a verdict on the colour.
- Light Summer: 93 (ΔE 2.7).
- Light Spring: 86 (ΔE 5.7).
- True Summer: 75 (ΔE 10.0).
- True Spring: 71 (ΔE 11.6) <- this season.
