· Usually has a light eye color (blue, grey or green) and frequently has red or blonde hair (however, can have dark hair).
· Skin often has a pink/red/cool undertone.
· Typically from Celtic or Northern/Eastern-European descent. Can be Asian as well.
· When the client's preference is more defined and bold, you can mix lighter pigments with darker ones to deepen them.
· Frequently, a combination of light to medium value pigments with added warmth works best for this type of skin to create a bespoke color that prevents ashy results.

· Can be sun sensitive and sometimes tans moderately.
· Typically of North American, Asian or Central-European descent.
· Can have warm, neutral or cool undertones.
