Buttercup

sun tears in the grass

Buttercup speaks of long summers, of laughter in the grass, of ice creams melting on bright afternoons and lemonades kissed by the sun. Legends say buttercups were gold coins dropped by fairies, or tears of the sun scattered upon fresh green lawns

Light & Warm

Buttercup has a light, warm appearance and looks perfect in warm to neutral, light to mid-tone colours in varying brightness —

from muted to bright

Morning Sun

Buttercup is here to shine like a little late-spring sun! This type thrives in colours that look sun-lit and cheerful — nothing duller than that. Think joyful yellows without too much warmth, peachy tints and corals, light scarlet, turquoise, sea-foam, peridot greens, and soft lavender

What to Avoid

Buttercup loses their charm in too dark colours (they look too heavy).
But what if you love them?

Simply follow the guidance in the Zazu Feu Colour Book, where you’ll find clever ways to wear the shades you adore, even if they aren’t a perfect natural match

Shiny!

Buttercups need light — always. White gold is the ideal metal, carrying just the right balance of brightness and gentle warmth. Classic yellow gold can work too, as long as it’s kept light and radiant.Turquoise and coral are Buttercup’s perfect companions: luminous, joyful, and warm enough to harmonise beautifully with Buttercup’s naturally glowing skin
