How seasonal color analysis works

Seasonal color analysis sorts people into four seasons based on two things. The first is undertone: warm (golden, peachy) or cool (pink, bluish). The second is how much contrast there is between your skin, hair and eyes, and how soft or bright your coloring is. Spring is warm and bright, Summer is cool and soft, Autumn is warm and rich, Winter is cool and high contrast.

Every skin tone, from very fair to very deep, can be any of the four seasons. Season is about undertone and contrast, not how light or dark you are.

Get the most accurate result

  • Answer in daylight, near a window. Warm indoor bulbs make everyone look warmer.
  • Take off makeup and self-tanner, or think about how you look without them.
  • Think about your natural hair color, the roots if you dye it.

Double-check at home

Hold a gold item, then a silver one, next to your face. Do the same with a pure white tee and a cream one. The one that makes your skin look even and awake, not gray or sallow, is your match. A professional draping session goes deeper, but this quiz and a mirror get you surprisingly close.
