Seasonal Color Analysis: What colors look best on you?


Figuring out what color works best with your skin complexion, hair color, and eye color will help you choose the right color clothes, hair, and makeup to compliment your natural features. Using natural day light with no makeup on, go through the following steps using the seasonal color analysis method to figure out what shade of colors will look best on you.  

1) Determine your skin undertone, also known as your hue. Usually, you either have a cool, warm, or neutral undertone.
·     Individuals with cool undertones usually have blue/purple inner wrist veins, and silver metals look better on them. In addition, they tend to sunburn easily and tan minimally. Their skin might look a little more blue, pink/rosey, red, and also tend to flush easily. 

vBest Colors: Jewel tone colors like purple, sapphire blue, and emerald green, as well as pure white, grey, and black tend to look best on them. In addition, warm colors with a blue base to them to give it more of a cool tone shade. Furthermore, if you are cool toned and pale, icey pastels are going to look good on you.
vColor season: They are usually a cool winter, or cool summer

·     Individuals with warm undertones usually have green inner wrist veins, and gold metals look better on them. In addition, they tend to not sunburn and tan easily. Their skin might look a little more yellow/orange, peachy, golden honey, and olive. 

vBest Colors: Earth tone colors like red, orange, yellow, brown, and olive green, as well as cream/ivory whites, peach, taupe (grey with brown mixed in), and tan tend to look best on them. In addition, cool colors with a yellow, red, or brown base to them. 
vColor season: They are usually a warm autumn, or a warm spring.

·     Individuals who have a hard time distinguishing their undertone probably have a neutral undertone.  These individuals usually have a combination of both cool and warm undertones and all colors look best on them, especially neutral colors like white, black, grey, brown, beige, cream, rose, and navy.

4) Determine your chroma, also known the intensity of color: usually, you either have a bright (clear), or soft (muted) chroma.
