Moonlight Summer (or True/Cool Summer)
Summer lipstick colors include pink, a blue-red, rose brown or mauve.  Blush should also be a blue-red applied lightly.  You may go darker in your colors depending on how much contrast you have. Stay away from peach.  Eyeshadow colors can be blue, frosty pink highlight, brown or lavender.  If your eyes are blue, don't wear green eyeshadow as it will compete with their color.  Use navy blue, soft brown or gray eyeliner.

Indian Summer (or Soft Summer with red hair)

You can wear Summer's brown or peach lipstick.  Pink will not be as good as Summer's orchid.  You can wear Summer blue-red lipstick as well.  Choose blush in Summer's red range, or burgundy.  Eyeshadows can include red, tan, brown, lavender, blue-violet and blue, possibly also aqua and highlight with frosty peach.  Use a Summer brown eyeliner.


Sunshine Summer (or Light Summer)

As a blonde, you may choose to wear Summer peach or pink gold frost lipstick.  A blued pink is a good blush color, or orchid or even purple, as they coordinate with peach.  You have more yellow in your pigment so the complement is purple, which makes for a good eyeshadow color, as well as lavender.  Use brown as a contour eyeshadow, perhaps blended with blue or lavender, and yellow as a highlighter.  Use a Summer brown eyeliner.
