Definitely a Winter. That stark white shirt looks amazing on you.
Oh thank you!
there's a school of thought in other color analysis systems that dark(deep) winter has a sister season with deep autumn! this means you can also pull off gold, just not AS well! ALSO all the deep autumn colors work as a secondary palette for you! wearing deep dark colors is the most important thing for us deep winters :)
But I don't always want to wear darker colors 😢
Yes, l am one of these! I was told l would suit the deep Autumn more as l got older..... so fast forward 30 years: my hair is now white, my skin is more yellow, and l believe that l am growing more into those deep Autumn colours.
@@Taichientaoyin My pallette also included a pale baby pink, blue, grey, mauve and lemon.
@@lenoredavi6137 I believe with a lighter hair you could wear more those lighter colors. I was told I needed contrast though, as a deep winter, if I wear only the lighter colors of my pallette I get a floating head.
@@Taichientaoyin You could trim light colors with dark. White with black lapels and belts, bright pink scarves against light outfits,light pink and white dresses with large splashes of bright flowers (a light dress you could put some liquid embroidery or iron on's onto),tatted burgundy lace collars, emerald necklaces against ice blue (think white tiger with blue eyes and panda bears with green eyes against bamboo leaves ) or panther eyes .... Some suggestions I hope will give you a bit of inspiration.
I am a colour analyst, and I have to say that it matters knowing colour theory in order to understand how it works/believe in it. Great video and I think you did a great job at explaining it! 🌸
I had a similar experience to you, but the other way around. I'm 57 and had thought I was a winter, like, FOR EVER!! But I'm very clearly a spring. There was no denying the evidence in the mirror! I was in shock 😂 Having my colours done has made a huge difference to how I feel about clothes. I'm back in love with colour, where I'd only worn black for years, out of laziness. I had my colours done 3 months ago and haven't worn black since.
I'm hopping it will make me fall back in love with colour too, I'm worried since one of my colours in black, I'll just start wearing more black
@@lauermar that's so interesting! And a bit inconvenient...but also exciting, in a way! I recall being told back in the 80s by an older lady who was very into seasonal analysis (I was 20 and wasn't interested) She kept telling me, oh you're such a lovely winter type (anecdotal, since she didn't test me) and so I always assumed I was (I have dark hair and v blue eyes). Perhaps I was cooler at the time. I know the undertone is not meant to change, but certainly my overtone has changed from very pale to more golden as I've got older. I love spring but wouldn't mind being winter. Although it would be hideously expensive 😵💫
Edited to add: I DUD have dark hair; it's now white and silver
@alicejwho you might be a bright spring? They often get misdiagnosed as true winter when young as that is their sister palette. I was very very pale with dark hair when young so people thought I was winter but as I got older my golden skin tone came out and it's became obvious. When young I could wear most of the winter palette well except black and Magenta but spring was always a little better. Now I'm older I can wear less winter shades without makeup, and all the brighter spring shades still look popping.
@@tomjones2157 wow, yes, that's exactly it! And yes I'm a bright spring, i was told. Thank you for sharing that insight. I hadn't realised that can happen.
I hear you on not wanting to be a purest, but i definitely think silver will make you pop!
I swear this whole color analysis thing has me so worried all the time that I am wearing my wrong colors 😂!!! Seriously it’s insane!!!
One thing I learned is that you can have a yellowish or olive overtone and a cool undertone at the same time. And you should match your makeup to your overtone.
I've looking into this too and it seem that you should match your foundation to your overtones but the rest to your undertone but i think I need to have a bit of a play to see what works for me
Yes, a lot of people confuse this and don't understand difference between over- and undertones.
I'm cool undertoned, although close to neutral, with warmer overtones. I can't wear orange or warm browns but my blush or bronzer needs that tint of orange to work, because that's closer to what my skin looks like when tanned. The redness in my face overtones is kinda coral, so anything too pink just looks off on me, that's why until recently I never even wore blush, it always felt clownish. 😂
I am the other way around, I have warm undertones as a warm spring, and can't wear any lipstick or blusher that is cool toned, they need a touch of yellow or gold, but my foundation has to be neutral ivory, anything too warm just sits as a yellow stain on my skin. @@Dani-lc9hq
@@Dani-lc9hqI’ve realised that if I take a photo with trees/plants/ashphalt behind me I look pale and cool. If I take a photo with a brick wall behind me I’m almost orange. If I take a photo in sun, I’m yellow and my hair has copper highlights. I’m very confused. I don’t know if I m cool undertones and warm overtones or warm and my black coat drains me.
@@cathwalsh9921 yeahh the camera and lightning can be very tricky... The sun would definitely bring out any warmer highlights in you.
You need a neutral white background and natural and not direct light and then drape test cool and warm colors against each other on you to find out.
Like clear white and warmer beige white, pink and orange... your skin isn't supposed to turn yellow or orange when putting on warm color.... if it's naturally warm it will just glow/blend in.
I'm so glad you were open minded about being a Winter. The white blouse you wore in the second part of the video makes you skin look sensational. You don't need to get rid of everything that's not in your season. There are days when you don't want to look your best. Now you know how to do it purposefully. My sister manages her husband's libido that way. She loves him and doesn't want to turn him down, so she's learned how to not turn him on. Keep an orange sweater to wear when you've got stuff to do and have no time for guy's hitting on you.
I used to work as a colour consultant and it was fascinating the amount of people who were convinced they were an Autumn but were actually Winters. And that combination is the best to use when demonstrating what colour does to you if you hold up an autumn colour eg the Khaki green compared to a jewel coloured green it is really obvious. When I did colours you can wear browns but very dark cool brown or a stone light coloured brown. For eyeshadows you can use taupes and deep browns just avoid yellow tones. Re the gold jewellery personally I think if you like it wear it - even if silver will look better on you - it is so small in comparison to clothing I don't think it matters as much. Like you said hair colours can make quite a big difference so yes ask hairdresser to use cool colours or if highlighting to make sure they use a toner. Is good to hear you enjoyed the consultation especially as it was a gift - sometimes they were difficult consults as weren't that interested.
Totally agree with all of this, I think I'll start adding Silver jewellery but I don't think it's much of a big deal x
I was the other way around, convinced I was a Winter due to dark hair and eyes, and pale skin, I turned out to be a deep autumn, because of my natural warmth.
Hi! The YT algorithm brought me here. It was fun to see the changes on your skin. It was obvious (to me) that the orange, coral & olive green didn't look good on you & that you're not warm. Your mom already knows which colors look great on you. In this case, mothers really know best! Re: makeup - I suggest to watch the vid of Colour Analysis Studio when they did a makeup exchange vid. Hope you enjoy your winter palette! 💐
Thanks for the tips, I'll go watch that now!
Even though your a winter as long as you wear the right colors near your face the gold is no problem
That crisp winter white shirt with the red lip looks amazing on you. I'm an Autumn and you immediately looked very cool toned to me. To me your skin looks very cool with a pinky undertone, no freckles, no hint of gold or peach, with sharp contrast, unlike the softened hazy look of autumns. When you wear your colours you will look your most healthy and youthful, but it is difficult to part with those favourite items that don't work for your palette. If you're unsure of which blue suits you, hold it up to your face and you should be able to tell if it works for you.
Thank you! Great tips x
Hi there! I've heard several colour analysts that earrings and necklaces are usually small details that do not affect your season that much. But, instead, they say that if you are debating, for instance, between a golden or a silver dress or shirt, you should go for silver if you have a cool undertone. But i don't think jewelery makes that much of a difference. And of course, you should wear whatever you like regardless of your season, it's just good to know your best colours for special occasions, for example, if you want to make a good first impression at an interview or something like that. Hope this helps! xx
I was going to say the same thing. As a summer I like wearing small gold jewelry but I don’t wear gold in my clothing.
@@catherineroberts5239 I'm a summer too! 🥰
You can also mix the two, that will soften the effect too
@28cArI11 Spring here + extremely pale skin and I really can NOT wear silver. It looks too heavy and grey and makes my skin look ashy grey-green like a zombie corpse. Not even a single tiny necklace. Bright platinum is ok but high karat gold and rose gold are better. Low karat gold looks too greenish dull and cool on my skin.
I think you're lucky to be a Winter because it makes shopping so much easier. You can wear white, black, grey, which are easy to find in the shops all year round. I am a warm season. In the winter I struggle to find anything in my colours.
In hindsight I really agree but they're are beautiful autumn colours too but winter does seem easier
Yes, I am a warm autumn and shopping for clothes atm is really a challenge. Mostly cool colours are available. I guess I have to wait for August ;)
Speaking of using season as a loose guide, I often dress edgy and kinda gothic/moody. Since I am a Soft Autumn, I use Dark Autumn colors with dark autumn makeup, and it looks edgy, whereas it wouldn't look edgy at all on a Dark Autumn. I still wear black and black smokey eye when I want to look really hard-core, whereas a dark winter would have to really try to look edgy and hard-core in black.
You're either a winter or your makeup is amazing because that bright white is stunning on you!
Thank you! x
I totally agree with the house of colour makeup being old fashioned. I think because colour analysis was so “80s” up until very recently since its become an online trend... the only people getting colour analysis were older women 😅 so companies like house of colour haven’t had to appeal to a younger audience. They should definitely start making an effort to update their brand, and making an app would definitely help with that!
That's a great idea actually, especially as they are well established and charge quite a premium
Love everything about color analysis! Would love to see your closet clean out and new item try on!
I kind of does one recently but I'll have another one coming soon I think
I had my colors analyzed a month ago, and I thought I was an autumn, but turned out to be a winter too. Welcome to the club!
Thanks- happy to be here!
Same! I looked so sickly yellowish (not in a pretty way) in those fall colours, I didn’t even like them but friends kept telling me ”oh you must be super warm!” due to my olive skin.
Turns out I was not warm at all, I’m a cool winter😂
I'm wondering if any of u had to travel far to find a certified analysis?$
@@darlamerrill8052 I live in Houston TX, and we have a lot of analysts here for various companies, so no I didn’t travel.
@@Spikypotato. I’m not sure if I’m olive, but I do have yellow in my skin overtones, so we all assumed I was warm because of that. The warm colors had the same effect on me, even made me look yellowish green in some parts of my skin 😂
I was draped yesterday as a true spring, and could see immediately those colours were right on me! I had previously been done by CMB as a true autumn and then a bright spring. I think they were close in that I need warm colours (the one that said autumn) and some brightness (the one that said bright spring) but true spring contains both qualities and feels right. I found CMB a bit pedantic (you have to wear bronzer, as you have pale skin for an autumn) and (you need to dye your hair darker, for a bright spring)! If the colours did not suit me as I am, surely they were not right on me?!
Girl I totally got how you felt throughout this video. I had mine done 2 months ago, SURE I was a bright Spring only to find out I’m Cool toned and a Bright Winter! 😢 I was devastated to say the least. It put me in a real state of melancholy. However I decided to start wearing my colours from that day forward, and I can’t believe the compliments just rolling in and the many stares from both men and women on the streets. 😂it really is a confidence booster. And as I love colour there’s so much more to now put into my wardrobe. It truly was worth the money, and the piece of mind now that every item will work together. Btw I just wanted to say that your white shirt and red lip look great on you. It really DOES make your teeth look super white, which is what we now know the right shade should do for us. 😊 Exciting stuff. I’m hoping to have a style analysis soon. Can’t wait.... 🤣
If you’re a bright winter, bright spring is your “sister season” :) meaning you can steal some colors from that palette and it still harmonizes
@@catagecat That's so good to know. Thank you.
You look wonderful in your new colors! :)
Very good video, thanks for taking us along the journey!
Thank you! x
I too thought you’d be an autumn but holding that winter fan up near your face - wow.
For makeup, I wonder if something like the Natasha Denona glam palette might be good - it’s very neutral overall with some cooler and some slightly warm shades.
I had myself as an autumn…am 58 and only discovered two days ago I too am a Cool winter ! ! I am still in shock was disappointed to say the least …I was in mourning for my burnt oranges khaki , browns golds and warm camel not to mention Gold and tortoise shell ..😮…… but woke up this morning and Am going to see this as an adventure…I didn’t have any Pink blue or grey in my wardrobe NONE …so am working on adding some jewel tones my analysis says Navy and charcoal are super for my basics …Black too …but Navy amazing…I see it now , I put on winter make up and dressed in all navy this morning for work and I am a cool winter ..😊 most definitely 💯 %
The brown eyeshadow you are wearing now looks so good on you. You could wear that same color as an article of clothing. So i think you definitely could wear brown in the cool tone.
Some colors will work in graduation and gradient - in your case as long as there's sharp contrast and crisp distinction. You might try graduating from winter on top,to autumn on the bottom still using the sub - color groups to create connection in the middle. Such as an emerald jacket, platinum necklace,white vest or buttoned shirt and bright purple undershirt .
Deep winter purple belt with yellow and white gold buckle.
Dark plum,peacock purple,or Japanese maple red pants.
Dark socks and yellow gold trimmed burgundy shoes.
An emerald and white purse with platinum chain,and yellow and white gold buckle.
I would love to try this!
The bluer toned fabrics looked SO much better!
i think you'd look great in pink/dark pink eyeshadow!
Girls that white shirt and cool red lip looks gorgeous on you! That’s how you know you’re a winter. Bright white looks dreadful on me, as I need to wear warmer white and beiges.
Color analysis is something I watch to get pairing ideas and color wheel development,not just see the colors people can wear - I do like to see them pull summer color swatches because there aren't too many other places to see it,and I just love the feel of seeing those colors around (chromatographic 😊) . But currently I'm trying to use the color scheme to graduate from rust colored bricks to summer color plants in the garden especially in arranged garden styles.
That cool red lip is WOW on you!
I'm a winter who prefers the autumn palette. Before my analysis, my closet was half winter and half autumn, but I realized I rarely wore the autumn-colored clothes. I'd put them on and think, "Um, not today." I came to understand that my autumn clothes weren't flattering because of the color, not because I looked fat or some other reason.
Great in-depth video! I plan on getting my color analysis done soon. I believe that I am a Winter because warm red lipstick looks terrible on me and warm brown clothing is super unflattering on me. I don’t own any orange clothing, I wore a lot of black clothing in college. I look good in grey. I have a question, have you changed the foundation shade you buy or that stays the same? What shade did you purchase before analysis (neutral, warm, cool)? I heard from a RUclips Color Analyst that a person can have a warm overtone (warm foundation shade) and have a cool skin undertone. The under tone is ‘under the skin’. Thanks for sharing 😊
I love light pink eyeshadow from Lavera (German organic light coverage makeup) .
Try medium pink. White gold.
Very cool blue, mountain tip, grey and purple as opposed to
hazey heather grey.
You might like white gold platinum better than silver unless it's too light winter.
It was really obvious on you right from the start, how bright your face looked in the correct colours
Took me a while, I think it's different when it's your own face but now I fully agree!
Aa a dark winte and a neutral-cool olive, the I Need a New palette from Natasha Denona is all I use for my eyws if you still need a rec!
I had the exact same reaction as you when I was told I was a winter not an autumn, I was disappointed!😂
😂😂 Now I feel quite lucky as white, black and grey really are easy and require no thought
A major problem for me is that some pale blues are dusty (unoticeably beige - like adding blue food coloring to slightly gold caramel) . Muted,pale,powder blues can sometimes come too close to this.
Experiment with crisp green blues,and even some summer watercolor aquas and baby blues on the bottom half with a white top.
I can tell you definitely ice ,arctic ,and glacier blues are winter. Santorini,baby,lake,and beach blues are summer.
Sky colors vary season to season,month to month.
Dusty blues common in bridal wear now and stores are warm.
Robin's egg turquoise , and green aqua's that aren't so water color are more spring.
Thank you for this video! I've also been typed as a cool/sultry winter, but I have always thought I was mostly warm too! Especially as I have yellow undertones in my skin, I can't wear pinky foundations. I suspect I'm probably neutral though, and yellow just looks less weird on me. I really like the cool winter palette for clothes but don't really want to change my makeup lol.
I totally agree- cool makeup is hard, especially when warm tones are so 'in' at the moment xx
I completely get it!!! I thought I was cool toned my whole life, but found out recently that I'm a True Autumn. I wasn't told I couldn't wear other colors, but to just incorporate my colors more.
@11:41- I want to comment on this because I learned this in color theory class in college (I got my degree in Fine Arts). We had an assignment around this and it was one of my fav things from that class and we learned why color combinations can change dramatically due to what other colors are around it. It's another reason why I REFUSE to buy clothes online because I need to see how the color looks on me due to my skin tone because what may look good in a picture, doesn't mean it's going to look good on you. But yeah, when I finished my assignment, while I only used 3 colors (2 different backgrounds and 1 color in the foreground), it looked like I used 4 different colors. The one color I used in the foreground was violet and the two background colors were red and blue. On the red side, the main color looked indigo because the red sucked up the 'redness' in the violet. In the blue section, the main color looked maroon because the blue background sucked up the 'blueness' in the violet. So yeah fascinating stuff huh?
Thanks for talking about the price. I am an American and thankfully there is a good color analysis in my neck of the woods (she has excellent reviews), the only drawback is the price because it also was around $250 (I know the English pound is worth more than the US Dollar). So hearing the price gave me an idea. I looked at the local color analyst's website and the price included in depth stuff too and the sessions can last up to 3 hours so it definitely sounds like I'd be getting my money's worth. Sadly I am of limited means and being the penny pincher that I am (like I have a trip coming up that involves my family so that takes priority), so it might be awhile I get my own color analysis, but I do want to do this someday. My best guess would be that I am a Summer because I tend to look better in pastels and muted colors. Definitely nothing too deep though. I once wore a dark forest green gown for Prom (it's a formal High School dance) and I looked so washed out in my pictures. Previous year for prom I wore a baby blue which I looked a whole lot better in. I do love colors though so I'd be fine with any season though since I am very open-minded.
Very fascinating! I hope you get to have your color analysis soon too xx
@@ALittleObsessed Yeah it might be later than sooner because of priorities, but yeah I hope it happens one day.
I had colour analysis remotely with an Australian company (I’m in US) that I saw on RUclips and got deep winter. To confirm I bought cloth swatches on Amazon- I think it was a packet of 50 colours for about $17 and took selfies by the window (not direct light) for all 50 wrapped around my neck with a white cloth on my hair and it pretty much confirmed my season. Also, I found a website that had given me the same results. I just was having a hard time accepting it because they said silver not gold.
As soon as you said, "I think I'm a warm." I was like, "oooo, yikes. honey, you're cool as ice! you're a winter." Then yep.
Great job, thanks. I love your honesty. Also, I am 65, and when you say it's screams old lady, you are using that as an adjecto to describe something ugly, undesirable, or negative. It's just wrong to slam old ladies as if they don't matter. You will be older someday and show your age. Also, older women do not wear shimmer because it highlights wrinkles, so they advise you to go to matte and cream even over powder. Anyway, shimmery is supposed to be out. After all, looking old or your age is bad, right?
Hi and thanks for this comment. In hindsight I agree that I chose the wrong word. I truly believe getting older is a luxury and I think saying 'old lady' doesn't even accurately describe what I mean.
If you're good at selling your clothes,try selling an amount equivalent to the analysis cost. Then accumulate items you like slowly later on into that space.
It would be nice if some of these analysis places had an adjacent service for clothes sale so you can "trade" the cost with clothes you've "wasted" money on that other people might be better suited too. Whether you buy something on that site or not you'd contribute to someone else's closet and reimburse yourself the cost.
I've heard there's Facebook groups,I just don't online shop ,a rack that some analyzser's have would work in person.
What a genius idea! This is exactly what people who did their analysis would need!
It's hard to sell clothes online, unless it's designer stuff you're lucky to get a few bucks and yet some of them are still so good and it's too sad to throw out things other people could actually still enjoy.
Its normal to naturally be gravitated towards warm colors bcz warm palette is comparatively wider and you have more options
I didn't know this, very interesting!
I would have thought you were an autumn but you could obviously see how much brighter you look in winter colors. I am an autumn but-steal from spring colors sometimes.
Your not the only season that can wear black! All the winters can deep autumn can and bright spring all can wear black.
No only winter
I think it varies between how strict people are with it but at House of Colour only Winter has black in it's palette
Black suits best 20% of the population. Summer looks gordeous in white, spring in beige and autumn in brown.
When you want to wear black, you can do it!
I think people just like black , I can see it doesn’t suit them, but the stores buy so much of it, people just give in. It’s a shame to dim our light.
Pure black looks best in winters. Perhaps bright spring and deep autumn can pull it off but they would look even better in a warmer black, while a winter would not.
Funny I also thought I was an autumn and turned out to be a cool winter.
You look amazing in your sultry winter colors! Eventually, you might want to change your hair color to a darker color; I had dyed my hair deep red prior to my analysis and wound up going back to my natural dark brown color, which is much better (I am a mix of sultry and jewel winter). I know you want to keep wearing gold jewelry, but after you start to wear silver, you will see how more harmonious it looks with your beautiful winter colors!
I think I'm going. a little lighter next week as I do every summer BUT I think this might be the last time. I think come October I'm going to dye my hair a dark natural brown colour and leave it, I really think it'll make a big difference but I want the gold one last time x
Before I did my colour analysis I also considered how this would in the long run save me money. I would be able to not make terrible choices when buying clothes and makeup without understanding why I didn’t like the items on me. Now I can see that much clearer and I don’t even need to try the clothes on in the store that are completely out of my season to know they don’t suit me.
I thought I suck in this (I still do XD) but the moment I saw you, especially with fresh face, I said - Winter and most probably Deep one. I'm just at the beginning of your color analysis, so I'm yet to discover how wrong I was. XO
Edit: :) As True Winter you can borrow some shades from True Summer. If you are Cool Winter, the same goes for Cool Summer - they are your 'sister seasons'. You can also wear jewel colors and jewels themselves. I'd try costume version of amethyst, emerald, ruby and see how it looks. I bet it'll look great on you. XO
The Natasha Denona Glam eyeshadow palette is perfect for neutral to cool browns and taupes!
I second this!I am quite sure I am some kind of winter and love that palette!
Thanks for this recommendation, I'll look into it but I think it's quite a pricey palette and I just have so many that I think I'm going to look for one in my collection first
@@ALittleObsessed Alter Ego has a perfect dupe for this palette at a much better price!
I’m a winter and only wear silver white gold and platinum jewelry but can get away with a light (less yellow gold) and an antique gold (blackened toned down) the bright yellow stuff even real always looks fake on me
The Artist you mentioned is Joseph Albers.
thank you
I think its because color analysis matches your Undertone, not the overtone of your skin, if you want to match a foundation for makep up, you have a neutral/ warm overtone, but that only counts for foundation beacause of the need for an overtone match. With color analysis, winter colors match your undertone
That lipstick really suits you.🌹
Oh thank you!
Are all of your best colors from your sultry winter book included in your fan? I wish they gave a sultry winter fan instead of just winter
I thought you looked warm at first, but when you wore the gold necklace it didn’t do anything for you, makes me want to see you try silver or white gold. I thought the cool colors were better too in the analysis ☺️ you look great in winter colors
Thank you!
Knew you were a Winter... Thought you would be a deep Winter though! Can see you looking anazing in berry colours.
Oh, you lucky woman! I am so jealous of those beautiful pink Chanel lipsticks, stunning cool metallics by Pat McGrath and pretty pink blushes by Dior you'll be able to wear. They look awful on me, sadly. Oh, and think of the fantastic blue red lipsticks you can wear with aplomb! 😍
Oh thank you! You've got me excited too now!
I had a colour analysis done a few months ago and boy do I feel silly…I thought I was an autumn or spring - but NO! I’m a Bright Winter. Insane - mindblown. I couldn’t have been more wrong. But it makes sense- my eye colour pops now that I’m wearing my proper colours.
You are so beautiful now!!!
You have some similiarities with Safiya Nygaard, not sure if it’s your eyes.
So I was a bit confused going into this when you thought you were warm. I was thinking winter. :)
Safiya had her colors done too and is a winter. She was very happy being able to stick to her black😅.
The book is called Interaction of Color by Josef Albers. He was one od the big names of the Bauhaus movement and the book is amazing!
Thank you
Try the Denona Glam palette!
Very temped, but I have so many eyeshadows palettes and the Denona palettes are pricey!
Since your eyes are brown, I think you can wear some gold as long as it's not too brassy, whereas if you had cool blue or blue gray eyes, there would be no harmony.
Ease into this. After a while you will see what doesn't work. Buy a tee in a color you might not have tried before and notice how people react to you and how you feel. You do look terrific in pure white.
I'm a very fair spring and don't tan at all! Just freckle unfortunately
When I saw you in the intro wearing black and looking good in it, I sort of knew that you would be a winter 😅
Thank you!
I thought I'd be Cool Winter, but I'm Cool Summer.
I have very similar coloring to you, but I am a fair olive, and I have almost exclusively a gold jewelry collection. My wardrobe is pretty standard for a winter-mostly black, white, grey, red and navy. Two things. You should try toning your highlights to a cool red. You might really like it and if you don't, it will wash out eventually. Also, try using neutral eyeshadow. A cool brown rather than a warm brown. Regarding the jewelry, I think this is an area in which the seasonal color analysis system is a bit too rigid. Jewelry can be very tricky. There are so many shades and finishes of gold and silver. I have found through a lot of trial and error that I look my absolute best in mixed metals as you mentioned. I also look significantly better in matte brushed jewelry as opposed to shiny. Pearl or mother of pearl jewelry is actually the most flattering of all on me. Not sure if you wear pearls, but you may want to experiment.
I actually think I'm going to go dark with my hair soon, I've done it before but always warm but I want to go a dark cool/neutral this time. I do think I look better in silver jewellery but I think it'll be a slow transition for me. I definitely want to try pearls too!

This is so confusing for me. I think I’m warm (medium-deep skin tone)- like
Mac nc42-44. Yellow undertones and some green as well.
But it’s hard to tell because I dislike most warm versions:
Tomato red, olive green I hate, brown, not particularly fond of orange.
But only wear gold or rose gold jewelry as they look better and wear mostly black clothes.
A warm 'over tone' in your skin can fool you into thinking you are warm, when you may perhaps have cool undertones in your skin.
I have learnt a lot from this channel:

It can be really tricky which is why an analysis from a pro was very helpful

Thank you
Remember you can always dye your clothes…just remember the nylon threads will not take up the dye colour 😊
I really do need to try this, just a little scary incase it goes wrong!
Do you like rose gold? I realized I like rose gold first, yellow gold and close second and silver last.
Personally don't love rose gold, it'd be my least favourite but I have started introducing silver
For THE best youtube colour consultations, see Colour Analysis Studio and Sarah Ryan the Style Coach - both use the same logical steps and scientific methods and are the most professional portrayal of a real consultation online - they make others look very poorly done in comparison.
Warm colours were adding more depth in your dark circles, uneven color on your cheeks etc. You are a fair cool with pink undertone. Also your eyebrows are very dark , usualy is specific on winters , not a rule though, but the hair colour is very discolourated comparing with your natural eyebrows colour !
Yes I agree. I'm hoping to get my hair coloured in the next two weeks and I can't wait! I hope I like it
It's not bulshit - it's physics 😁
I agree!
For what it's worth I think the result was dramatic.
Pretty odd that you don't remember the sub-season that you were analyzed as. Sort of a waste of time and energy for you and for viewers if you don't pay attention to the analysis.
?? I am a sultry winter as mentioned in the video
I dont get why she didnt test spring too or all 4. because bright springs can have very daark hair and eyes too for example. just looking at you and say its between autumn and winter is odd.
maybe shes right anyway. but still
The navy and the dark forest green looked AMAZING on you!
Thank you xx
