You girls always look fabulous. You wear clothing and colours that suit, your makeup looks great, your hair looks great and you always look polished! Greetings from Oz 🇦🇺
I'm SE Asian and have yellowish-brown skin (similar to J Lo), warm brown eyes and my natural hair was black, low contrast. Nowadays, hair is dyed mahogany brown because I like it & to cover the greys. If I was to dye my hair black again, I feel that it would be too harsh. I look good in burnt orange, olive green & mustard yellow. I've done self draping & I can also wear some spring colors. Baby pink, magenta, lavender & black look horrible on me.
This is such an interesting conversation. I’m in between seasons for sure. I think I was straddling deep winter and dark autumn but now that I’m greying I’m going between soft autumn and soft summer. My skin tone is pretty neutral but I have warm eyes.
I have a colorless cheek, very fair neutral/warm skin, bright auburn hair, hazel/tawny eyes. True and deep autumn colors are the most complimentary for me, as are some of the true spring (royal blue, goldenrod) colors. Soft/light spring and autumn palettes wash me out. It'll be interesting to see where I land when I let my hair go totally gray (what I've seen of it is not warm at all!)
I’m an Autumn who has dark ash blonde hair with little to no red or gold highlights. It was golden as a child, but my skin tone is warm, and my eyes are olive green with warm brown and gold flecks, very typically Autumn. Summer tones (which ash blonde hair normally goes with)-a few look good on me, but the white-vs-ivory test definitely shows ivory, which means I’m warm.
Please show us a picture of your mom being an autumm!!! Maybe a little video about this transition? And i would prefer my photo inside the book, not the cover 😂 thanks ❤
I have to tell you about my experience with color and eyes yesterday. I have hazel eyes. I do love a nice green. Anyway, I fell in love with your new Tuscany Palm eyeshadow. I wore it yesterday with a shirt that matched. The comments that I received were amazing. I was told that I looked elegant! So many positive comments. Makes me want to stay in that shirt and makeup forever!😂😂😂
I straddle Warm Spring/Warm Autumn. As I have aged & my skin is less "golden" & peachy I find that Corals, Watermelons & Warm Pinks are better than Peaches/Terracottas or anything too orange toned in makeup. I can pull of some mauves if they aren't too cool. I color my hair since my grey is very white & looks very obvious against my haircolor. Kind of like I have white paint in my hair. I know from experience that too light or too cool of haircolor looks terrible on me (colorists love taking me too blonde since my hair lightens so easily & the results were less than spectacular. ) If my hair ever goes completely white I may switch to a lighter warm blonde shade. But for now I stick with dark blonde/light brown neutral-ish base with subtle highlights. I have a lot of golden or red in my hair naturally so any color that leans too warm will give me red hair that looks brassy. I think warmer seasons have more difficulty transitioning into grey & are more likely to color their hair to cover the grey for that reason. We all soften in our coloring with age. I would think Autumns & Summers would have the easiest time since they have soft, blended shades in their palette already.
Dear both of you - I really wish you will make the winter season next. I have of course pressed the subscribe button ❤ looking forward for your next very teaching videos - you have reminded me of so much and taught me a lot of new things. Have a very nice day both of you - Love from Denmark
I think I’m a redhead in the soft category….I really enjoyed having brown lowlights and blonde highlights added to tone down the “orange”. I’m not coloring my hair anymore but I really feel more put together when I wear navy blue or army green. I always thought I was a spring but now I’m certain that I’m an autumn from these color class sessions. Thank you!
Yeah, my eyes are blue-grey with an amber starburst around the pupil. Where the two combine makes them look golden olive or grey-green depending on light source & the colors around me. Sometimes in photos the rings are very prominent & not blended. I think with the seasonal palettes, the colors are a range of suggested best options for the most people. Not *all* the colors within your season will be your personal best since everyone will vary in depth, contrast & clarity levels. It's also not always easy to determine if a deep or blended color is warm or cool. Same with neutrals. Navy is not universal, it can be grey or bright or so dark it looks black.
I'm an Autumn with cool blue eyes. The problem with emphasising eye colour is it leads to confusion. I was convinced I was a winter because of my eyes, and I've been professionally analysed and I have a very warm undertone. Warm colours are clearly better on me, no question.
TY for discussing coloring. It has taken me most of my life understanding my own. My cousin who was my hair dresser for many years said that I was a dark blonde. But I saw a lot of colors in my hair and that really confused me, but the one color that stood out the most was a muted red, that would be exposed in the sunlight, and some gold as well. My eyes were just as confusing because I have a ring of light Hazelnut color around my pupil, outlined in cream yellow, then a bluish gray, and all of that is sprinkled liberally with golden flecks ....(I think they call this heterochromia)so that they change colors according to what I wear. I really feel like a muddy mess. My undertone is yellow and my overtone is red....so I can't wear yellow or red, or my skin looks jaundiced or my nose lights up like Rudolphs. I look fabulous in Peach colors though. I'm 57, and I've only learned about all of this in the last 5 years, as I've researched skin tones, eye coloring and hair. I literally took a selfie while draping different colors over my shoulders against a white background to determine what colors made my skin tone look even and healthy. I finally narrowed it down and buy only those colors when I shop for clothes. The colors that I can wear, imo, are mostly muted colors, because I have very low contrast. So I pick muted colors like rust,/burnt orange, olive green, gold browns, cool brown, blues, ecru, peach, off white, tan, teal and gray. That is about my range of colors that I stick too. Everyone is so unique, it's amazing all of the variations.
How can I get a color analyssis? I need it cause according to your explanation I might be a deep winter and a deep autumn as well 😢 but I want to be sure cause right now I dont know which colors suit me
What about if your skin is your dominant coloring? I have fine flat hair, my main feature is my very warm skin, therefore my hair isn’t really relevant as compared to someone like Sarah. I have 1/10 of her hair on a good teased up day. Lol what about celebrities like Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, shakira, Christina Millian… BEFORE they dyed their hair, and for them their skintone does. if you take a look they had extremely dark brown almost black neutral to cool hair and I definitely do not see gold or red in their hair. and they’ve all totally enhanced the warmth in their skin.
I have warm autumn hair but my eyes & skin are so cool, it makes me a bright winter. I’m definitely not an autumn, warm colors make me look sick, & I always wear lipstick & blushes that look purple in the tube but they color correct pink to purple on me bc of how cool toned I am.
If you have dark brown ashy hair (natural or colored) deep brown eyes sounds like you might be a winter but what if you add warm hilites (gold or red) does that mean you are now an autumn regardless of what your undertone is....
As olive toned I can‘t wear any green as I am getting older. My hair goes grey. But also my skin. My eyes arw muddy grey green with a rusty sun. Gold only mat. I love warm brown for my hair but I think maybe I should go a little mire fair…
Unfortunately, this video like so many other color consultants mentioned only deep autumn colors and didn't illustrate the problem of being a very light autumn who cannot wear the deeper autumn shades. A video about those of us who exist only in the middle zones-- in my case soft autumn next to summer--who be great. It's such a fine line to walk when creating an appropriate wardrobe, makeup selections, etc.
I am right there with you. I was definitely a spring as a child. Somewhere along the way those colors stopped looking as good on me. I started gravitating to autumn colors, somewhat accidentally. Now my hair naturally has five colors, honey blonde, strawberry blonde, dark blonde, and grey. I’m soft, blue grey eyes, neutral fair skin. Slowly turning into a summer, but I really don’t want to lose my current coloring. I quite like it.
@tbell1698 16 palette system addresses this because the 2 new palettes on the warm side are soft spring and light autumn. It deals with the criss cross applesauce that happens in the warm palettes between light value and soft chroma. If spring overall works better but you need a bit of softness (think Laura Linney) soft spring is the ticket. If autumn is better but you need the colors to be a bit lighter (like Drew Barrymore) than you just might be a light autumn.
@@mh325 Same. I was a spring when you get. My hair and skin tone changed, making me an autumn ( though the color swatch book I was provided in the 1980s by color me beautiful consultant when typed an autumn were limited and never felt right). With the expansion of season/personal color palette typing soft is my dominant characteristic. I love the soft autumn palette and I hate that I'm morphing into a summer as I age, fighting the greys and washed out skin pigment.
Black is really brown 😂 I have dark brown, near black hair and guess what, red is always part of the hair when it's dark. Why I say that? Try to go blond. I have a warm surface color, but overall I'm quite neutral. However, my dead giveaway is brown. It makes me yellow like I have yellow fever. I still can pull off warmer blues. I think, I really look good in blues, as long as they're deep, saturated and slightly muted. I also can pull off reds, but also with the same pattern, except for the warmth. I find it interesting.b color analysis is also reinventing yourself, but also you get to know yourself, as well. 😂
If you look like me in otherwards this is firm evidence you are NOT an autumn dear friends!!! Lmao. If you look like a medieval aged peasant wearing a burlap sack in beige, cream, orange, or brown this is NOT you! lol. 😶🌫😂
@sharroon7574 no not most. A lot of springs have red or light brown hair. That is how the twelve and 16 palette systems help because they cut down on the stereotypes
Blended! I look forward to THAT video. I'm Deep, but straddle between Deep Winter and Deep Autumn. Thank you for all you do.
Yes! Same. Im probably just soft. I can wear some autumn and some summer colors
Gosh, darn, I love your hair in this video Lucinda!
i’ve always had questions too because i have neutral-cool skin tone, ashy dark brown hair with red undertones, and dark brown eyes with gold flecks
You girls always look fabulous. You wear clothing and colours that suit, your makeup looks great, your hair looks great and you always look polished! Greetings from Oz 🇦🇺
Looking forward to winter and summer ones. I think I’m between. Cool winter in the 16 seasons.
A lot of Asian people mistakenly think that they're autumn because they have yellow skin. Yellow skin can also be cool.
Yes! I’m not Asian but I definitely have a yellow overtone as well! It’s interesting how this works!
@almondmilk4601 a lot of times this happens because sallow gets confused for warmth.
Lots of Asians are winters & springs too, my sister is a beautiful Asian spring, she’s warm but bright & clear (high contrast).
I'm SE Asian and have yellowish-brown skin (similar to J Lo), warm brown eyes and my natural hair was black, low contrast. Nowadays, hair is dyed mahogany brown because I like it & to cover the greys. If I was to dye my hair black again, I feel that it would be too harsh.

I always thought that asians are mostly winters, at least cold. Def most of them in korea. A lot of them just have white skin
You both ladies are beautiful and elegant!!! I always enjoy your wonderful videos. Love the discussion in details. Greetings from Arizona.
Our pleasure!

Where does a mostly ash blonde with some brassy/golden hair + fair skin that tans well fit in?
I am a true autumn! I finally bought a sweater that is camel and I got so many compliments! Thank you! I was one of those women who was confused! ❤🎉❤

So would you say your dominant characteristic is the most important attribute? Like light, dark, soft or cool/warm?
What about if your skin is your dominant coloring? I have fine flat hair, my main feature is my very warm skin, therefore my hair isn’t really relevant as compared to someone like Sarah. I have 1/10 of her hair on a good teased up day. Lol

I think im an autumn as i have red and gold in my hair and hazel eyes but my skin is quite pale and look awful in most colour except green x
Can you recommend any products for lipstick feathering and bleeding and eyeshadow creasing
I think I'm a Deep Autumn, but my hair is bleached so it is dark blonde/light brown. It is warm. It used to be dark brown with a slight auburn tint.
Lucinda-I love that top. where did you get that? And what color is that considered?
Blue-ish.
My mom as a child had a beautiful ash brown hair but now I still don't know if she is a winter or even an autumn
How much is the color analysis?
Put the picture on the inside introduction pages.
No I would not want my picture on the front. I like Sarah’s idea. The front cover a colorful and interesting piece of art.
If you have dark brown ashy hair (natural or colored) deep brown eyes sounds like you might be a winter but what if you add warm hilites (gold or red) does that mean you are now an autumn regardless of what your undertone is....

The 4 season system is the gateway.
What does four season call dark blonde and soft
If a person has very short fine hair, I’d say that skin tone would be more dominant.
I want to work out what I am so bad! I thought I was an autumn but now I don’t know 🧡

Nope, no client picture on the cover! Listen to Sarah on this one.
I would not want my picture on the cover. In my life, I think I've had 3 or 4 good pictures. Cameras totally throw me off - too self-conscious.
why cannot I still not tell if there are red or gold highlights in my hair?! 😭
I’d rather be inside the book front page as you open would be fine
I guess I am a sprinter these days. 😂

Clear springs have dark hair with vivid eyes so they are definitely NOT autumn'
Most springs have light hair
@sharroon7574 no not most. A lot of springs have red or light brown hair. That is how the twelve and 16 palette systems help because they cut down on the stereotypes
@MaryYoungblood-xy8vg I would consider those light colors. I wasn't saying that all springs are blonde.
@@sharroon7574 those would be light. But clear spring can go almost to black in the hair.
