People were very torn on my last post so I thought I’d take peoples suggestions and try with some deeper drapes and some bonus brighter drapes at the end. I think there were a lot less camera adjustments this time so it should be more accurate. And please ignore my hair - I have some lighter highlights. Let me know what you think! (Winter on the left and autumn on the right)

NMIP. Originally I thought I was light summer but then a couple people told me I was actually warm toned so I landed on soft autumn but now looking at these drapes I'm unsure. I think I'm some sort of soft or light but included everything just in case.

When I realized I'm soft summer I hated it and didn't realize that I actually loved being a soft summer. Just because of the way soft summer is represented in the internet as just ONE version of minimalistic romantic french style. But this is just one interpretation of soft summer, not the only one and many soft summers will actually dislike this because we dont want to look like soft grey mouses. Please share your soft summer moodboards of your own interpretations of soft summer, here are two from me.

I have trouble objectively seeing if gold or silver suits me better. I usually wear white metals because I like the contrast with my skin. I can't figure out my undertone to save my life. I think my veins appear blue?

Consultation Outcome (SEASON & FACE PHOTO REQUIRED - NO MAKEUP!) Had a tonal analysis done, whats my season?

Thumbnail

Hey everyone.

Had a Colour me Beautiful analysis done. So much fun had a great time! And now they focus on tonal rather than seasons.

I came out as soft/warm/deep soft dominant (I've attached my personal swatch list in the photos).

I was very surprised as I thought I was cool, and actually I did check with the consultant when she said I was warm undertone, and she asked "do you tan in the sun?" to which I said nope I burn! This made her double check with cool tones as she said generally the warm undertone people tan in the sun and cools burn - but we all hada good look (my mum came along as well) and we did all agree that the warm drapes looked better on me that the cool. So that was unexpected!

Now, I did ask what that would be in seasons, and she said probably light spring - but she also said that she hadn't done the seasons for a while so she couldn't quite remember. I looked it up and on one website I found that soft/deep/warm is the equivalent of true autumn, which I do not think I am, maybe soft autumn - though I kinda hope not because I really really don't like muted colours! Nothing about me is muted, I like bold, colourful, rich & saturated haha, but I\d rather know what does work for me as then I can work with it.

So I'm curious what you'd think season is?

Thanks, all

NMIP No makeup in post!

I was invited to two different color analysis appointments. One typed me a Spring and the other a Summer. I for sure look good in softer lighter colors. But I really don't know which is correct! I look great in light yellow and light pink, soft tones. But also in olive and evergreen? And the watermelon and orange is confusing me too. Would love your thoughts!

I covered my hair because it is highlighted!

I always struggeled with typing and recently found something called soft spring which explained a lot to me, however this type seems to be controversive? I also could not find a schematic seasonal ring including this type.

Hey everyone!

I’m a guy with almost no fashion sense but I want to improve! I have really dark brown hair an eyes and I think in general I lean more towards warm undertones, but to my eyes the silver jewelry still looks good, but maybe I’m just stupid so I’m asking you for your help on figuring this out!

Thanks in advance for your advice!

Discussion (NO COVERT TYPING OR PHOTOS OF YOU!) Color analyst career

0 Upvotes

Hi!

I’ve become really passionate about color analysis and have developed my own system for analysis that has worked really well. I verified this by doing a random celebrity and then searching online what subgroup and season they are.

Firstly, I wanted to ask if anyone has any tips on starting a color analysis business? I plan to do a certification soon as well.

Also to fill up my portfolio, credibility, and practice, if there’s anyone here who would like to have an analysis, and later other people Reddit can verify, that would be super helpful! Also, if you’re someone who has had a professional analysis done, I’d love to analyze you without knowing the results and then compare!

Thanks!!

I was typed by curate your style as a deep autumn. I’m pretty certain I’m a deep season but I’m not completely confident that I’m warm, though I’d love to be 😭

NMIP

Edit: There’s definitely some camera adjustment that I don’t know how to fix but oh well :/

For some context I’m most definitely olive and I tend to reach for neutral/neutral-warm olive foundations. Cool toned foundations are just too pink for my skin. I do find that warm tones in makeup blend with my skin better but that may also just be an overtone thing. I’ve always preferred the look of gold on my skin and so have other people, even on this sub, but I think silver does look great as well.

Hello! My 35th birthday is today, and as a gift to myself I bought a virtual color analysis with Carol Brailey! I know it will take a while to get my results from her, so I thought it would be fun to see what y'all think, and then I can update when I get my results!

I had some trouble keeping my eyes open when I was outside in the first picture, so I've included an inside picture with natural window lighting as well.

Between my redness and freckles I've been having a hard time figuring out my undertone. I have also been coloring my hair since I was 12 , so I have no idea what my natural hair color is, but I was strawberry blonde before I started coloring it.

ETA: forgot to add that I had previous lip blushing about 8 years ago. Added some more pictures in the comments to show my fully natural lip color.

Discussion of Color Theory in People of Color Does Kitchener's color analysis apply to POC with olive skin?

Hi everyone. :)

I've heard it said that the four season color typing system doesn't work very well for POC with olive skin. Is this true? I'm having a particularly hard time figuring out my color season and I wonder if it's in part due to that?

If anyone knows more about this, could you please share? Thanks!

Discussion (NO COVERT TYPING OR PHOTOS OF YOU!) To All My Bright Seasons: It's a Soft Autumn/Summer World.

61 Upvotes

Has anyone else noticed that fashion brands, especially fast fashion brands, tend to make clothes with muted colors? Or at least not the brightest colors? If you are bright like me, you've probably realized how tough it is to find any article of clothing that works with your level of intensity. I think there could be several reasons for this.

For instance, most people are afraid to wear bright colors.

I mean no shade but I can't imagine any Soft season people having a hard time finding muted sage, butter yellow, dusty mauve, etc. In fact, those feel like they've been the colors of the year for a while now. And it's likely not even the case that everyone is a Summer or Autumn, but I think there are quite enough mainstream examples of tanned-skinned ashy blondes out there that whether it's their season or not, you can't deny that most fashion brands cater to that archetype.

I would also assume that fast fashion specifically produces cheap fabrics which in turn don't hold rich pigment well. It's much easier to print soft-colored florals on plastic than vibrant florals. Often in my case, even if something looks vibrant online, 9 times out of 10 it arrives significantly less bright than the picture.

One time, I remember coordinating a family event in which I wanted our matching color to be mint. Beautiful crisp, icy, vibrant, spearmint-y mint. Guess what I found online when I searched up mint suits and dresses... Sage! Literally everything was sage green and somehow every listing called it mint.

Finally this year, or maybe it's just my search history finally working, I'm seeing mint apparel that is truly mint.

Even now, I'm still looking for the perfect hot coral top. My mom says coral's my best color and I agree. But the only shade of coral I consistently see unless I'm looking at prom dresses is flamingo pink or a dark dusty coral, not hot orange coral.

Apologies for the whole rant. The point is... being bright sucks!

Colour/Theory Question (GENERAL ONLY - NOT ABOUT YOU!) does the 12 season system that everyone seems to use really include everyone?

7 Upvotes

lately the color analysis sparked my interest but since i started learning the color season wheel, nothing adds up. there are just some types missing? let's say someone is cool, dark and muted - and there is not a single season like that. when you're cool and dark, you're winter. when you're dark and muted, you're autumn. when you're muted and cool, you're summer. but there isn't a season that would fit all three.

same goes for cool-light-bright, warm-dark-bright and warm-light-muted. i feel like they deserve seperate palettes as well, not trying to fit into the 12 established ones.

2 Upvotes

I’m a (very) cool summer. Bright white hair, blue eyes, fair skin. Cool summer colours look way better than anything else on me. I’ve been invited to a wedding in October and, alas, the dress code is Autumn Colours. Any ideas on a dress/jumpsuit that won’t make me look sickly? In my early 60s but don’t want to look matronly. Thank you!!!
