How To Fake a Summer Glow

When it comes to Colour mileage, few pigments will give you as much as a Golden shade.

As long as the sun lingers, we're going to hold onto Summer with the stubbornness of a child, making any attempt to feel her warmth as often as possible before she loses her intensity. Yes, the change of season signifies the end of sun-kissed skin and that unique bronzed glow, only Summer sun knows how to create — but we have a Hair Colour ally and failsafe solution to take over the role until we do a rotation back to Summer loving.

It's simple, it's time to start incorporating a Golden shade into your Colour repertoire. When it comes to Colour mileage, few pigments will give you as much as a Golden shade. Warming, revitalising and boosting, Golden reflects fill your Hair and complexion with a healthy glow as if you've just returned from some exotic palm-laden cocktail drinking Summer holiday.

Looking to keep your glow-going? Fake it till you make it with this variety of gorgeous Golden Hair Colours.

For a sprinkle of Gold

If you're currently a Cool base like an Ash or Beige shade, start small by brightening your Colour with a Natural shade. Rather than directly jump to the Golden jackpot, the subtle transition to a Neutral Tone will be enough to bring immediate oomph back into your Hair without overwhelming your Colour in Warmth.

When giving up your ultra Light Cool Tones is not an option, try a Colour shade like the Butter Cream Blonde that blends the Extra Light Beige Blonde creaminess with the Very Light Golden tones of 9.3, exciting your shade with a hint of Golden buttery reflects.

But you still want more

That's easy, double the dosage with a multi pigmented Colour that has 2 Warming pigments — a primary radiant pigment that is rich, radiant and obsessed with showing off and a secondary pigment that beautifully rounds the Colour off adding depth and shadowing to create volume. Another bonus? You'll get more tonal variety out of these superhero shades.
