Thank you so much for doing this video detailing the confusing “cool yellow” green eyes situation. I have struggled with trying to figure out where I fall for years! You really do listen to us and respond with amazing informative videos. 🙏
I would love for you to do a video about red hair. I have light skin, light copper hair and bright light blue eyes. I feel overwhelmed wearing warm colors, like it’s too much warmth overall. Wearing really cool colors like cool pinks don’t really suit me either I think.
Cool-toned people can also have hazel eyes with warm golden colors in them. I'm an example😁 Also, you haven't adressed the whites of the eyes, and those vary in tone as well, which can also be an indicator of warmth/coolness.
correct. Many summers like me have hazel eyes, and many winters too. And when you look closely hazel is a mixture of blue grey, cool green and some light brown.
Great video! I am so pale that it's hard for me to figure out my undertones! Haha. The only indicator I really have is when I wear "warm" colors my skin looks really pink against like if I wear brighter yellow for example. I know through words it can be confusing. Lol!
I had my colors done. I have eyes that are brown green so a mix of cool and warm and warm med dark brown hair with light cool skin. I was told I am in-between bright winter and soft summer. I seem to look better in the soft summer colors.
Since I color my hair blonde and I have blue eyes with red in my skin, I think I’m cool, but people tell me I’m neutral, or even warm on occasion. Growing up I was golden blonde - question about hair tones - should cool skin color their hair cool or warm? In these pictures they match, but what tones wash a person out? Is it more about the depth of color because if I blend together I feel washed out, if that makes sense.
It sounds more like the under base like if you're blonde golden blonde there's two under bases are going to be yellow or orange but if you go more ashy they're going to be blue purple so it kind of sounds like you're a neutral on the cool side.
Is it possible to have warm hair with cool skin/eyes? I'm naturally light-skinned with pink undertones, have light-medium golden brown hair and dark brown eyes.
All colours have undertones, whether they are in nature like skin and rocks or whether they are man made like floor tiles and house paint. The only neutral is pure white
I love both of your videos on cool and warm undertones. I know I'm cool bright and deep. the only problem I have is with my hazel eyes. They change colors depending on the light / weather/ my mood, so sometimes they are more green and sometimes brown but the majority of the time it's like I have a green (somewhat like a sea green kind of color) raw, a brown (more of a warm brown) raw and in the middle both color combined and created a sort of yellow raw so I thought they are warm. So I was wondering could having warm eye color on a cool complexion (fair skin with freckles, that turns red/pink under the sun and tans a tiny bit after, with dark brown almost black hair) softens my overall coloring? can some warmer dark colors work on me ? I also see their intensity as medium while my hair and skin create a deep contrast, so could it be the reason why some of the brightest colors aren't the best on me while the same color a tiny bit darker looks really good on me?
Love your videos. Can a person be cool toned, but with freckles? I ask because I can’t figure out my husband’s undertone. He has black-brown hair with little to no red (but gets a bit of red in his facial hair), and cool, blue-green hazel eyes. His skin, paired with mine looks whiter and noticeably less yellow than mine (I’m bright, warm and medium.) Most of his qualities look cool to me, but then he has freckles all over his arms and legs (no freckles on his face.) I always thought freckles were a warm trait? Is it possible for cool skin tones to have freckles? Or is that usually an indicator of warmth? Maybe a mix?
I'm so confused. My skin irl looks more yellowish, but in photos it looks peachy/pink. My hair is a light brown, ashy at the roots, but gets some golden highlights from the sun in summer. My eyes are a dark greyish green, but have some golden specs in them... Orange makes me look very sallow an yellow :/ I gravitate towards cooler colors. I must be some sort of neutral?
I feel like I’m in between or something. My hair is getting gray but my skin has always been golden olive. My eyes are hazel green/gold/brown. My husband says I look good in blue and red. Confused
This is a long comment but I hope it helps you or someone else. The same principles apply, when looking for warmth or coolness in tan skin. If you have tan skin check to see if you have any warmth in your skin (I have seen many tan people of every race who do not have warm skin at all, including many tan black people). And then check to see which colors look best on you. Tan skin does not mean warm skin (I think many people have this misconception because they focus on the color of their skin and not the undertone and colors that harmonize with their skin). And remember cool skin is the absence of warmth. Jen has plenty of videos on tan skinned cool people that are really helpful, especially if you need something more in-depth. Look into the videos where she does color analysis for individuals, rather than videos explaining color analysis terminology like this one, that will really help you out a lot. I think for this video she wanted to show that even at the extreme ends of skin tones that coolness is present and identifiable. She used pale non people of color and then dark-skinned black people to show the extremes, especially because many people see tan black people or tan Asian people and immediately jump to warm undertones. And if you are struggling with figuring out if you are warm or cool just know that most people don't even need to take into account their eye and hair color. Tie your hair back if it is long, and try on warm and cool colors that match the intensity of your skin. So if your skin is tan and it does not have any grey added to it, try medium to deep warm and cool colors. Actually if you try on a pumpkin orange (a mid toned orange that is muted and very warm) that color can tell a few things about if you handle warm colors, if you can handle muted warm colors, and if you need to wear deeper colors. So say for instance you realize that the pumpkin orange doesn't look terrible on you because you can wear warm colors and the intensity is close to your skin. Then the next question to ask yourself is can I wear a darker color of pumpkin with black added to it or do I need a less muted shade of pumpkin (a more pure chroma color). If you answer yes to the first question then that might mean that you are a deep dark autumn or a true autumn (using seasonal color analysis). If you realize that you need the more pure chroma colors then you might be a true spring or a medium spring (again using seasonal color analysis). That is really the best way to go about color analysis or think about the colors that people say look best on you.
She does in plenty of her other videos. Had she of shown more BIPOC people I genuinely think most people would have seen tan black women, for instance, and automatically have thought she can't be cool she is warm. For explaining something as basic as warmth or cool it's best to show extremes, and then to show other examples as someone gains more knowledge. If you want to see other videos where she goes into something like this in more detail check out her video on Bright Warm Deep. I'm a black woman who is a bright warm deep and for someone who is a beginner this video does what it is intended to do which is teach basic color analysis. I couldn't imagine being a beginner and trying to parse out coolness vs warmth on someone with Beyonce's skin tone, Kai fron EXO, Faith Evans, Thandi Newton, and etc. With the extremes it's way easier for people who are beginners to understand.
I have neutral going towards cool I'm a soft cool

They all wear makeup the pink is from the blush

Jen, as always you do a great job! :)
I would like to meat you
Aww, thanks Tom!
Please can you do a video about variations of cool with DARK Grey Green teel eyes.

Hi! If your skin looks really pink against warm, you might have cool undertones.

I always thought Angelina jolie was a bright spring... which would mean warm undertones, right?
Is it possible to have warm hair with cool skin/eyes? I'm naturally light-skinned with pink undertones, have light-medium golden brown hair and dark brown eyes.
Sounds like you're neutral
I always thought I was more neutral to cool-toned. Thanks!
@@sarcasticj there are no neutrals. you have to determine the undertone
All colours have undertones, whether they are in nature like skin and rocks or whether they are man made like floor tiles and house paint. The only neutral is pure white
they have a blusher on
I just said the same to myself
Blonde Hair Blue Eyes Medium Skin
Hmm so my hair will probably be silvery white one day, interesting. But I have a warm eye 🤔. My hair is brown too.

i think your are neutral. neutral is when you have a combination of both cool and warm undertones
hazel eyes can go with any of the seasons. You have study the effects of colours against your skin to determine undertone.
Anjolina jolie is olive
Olive is a cool colour.
Lilac nailpolis really looks good on my hands. Am I cool?

You described exactly my profile too (my eyes are blue though but greyish as well). And just like you, I'm soooo confused!
if you look terrible in orange you are one of the cool seasons
im cool toned and i have dark pine green eyes that change to olive green when im out in the sun.
That sounds like neutral
@@sarcasticj welp. im not. im blue and purple veined. Northern European descent
@@queenofsnow666 well...fuck me for trying 🙄
@@queenofsnow666 ignore the vein theory
#question
Is Angelina Jolie is soft, cool and medium or bright?
I feel like I’m in between or something. My hair is getting gray but my skin has always been golden olive. My eyes are hazel green/gold/brown. My husband says I look good in blue and red. Confused
olive skin is winter
and plenty of winters have hazel eyes
The 2nd lady has a neutral undertone
I loved the video, but you jumped from fair skin all the way to African Americans. You skipped all tan people.
This is a long comment but I hope it helps you or someone else.

She needs to have more African African-American, Asians, indians, Hispanics for complexion
