This is helpful insight for me, so thank you for sharing! It'll come within the year, mark my words!

So glad to hear! Thanks for the feedback💕

Hi! You have to take a very intelligent approach that pays close attention to your body's biofeedback. A moderate approach where you really take your time, while fiercely protecting your relationship with food, is KEY! I teach all of this inside my Sustainably Lean Academy course (linked above) if you're interested❤

@JessiemGolden thank you I follow you on tik tok as well your advice is always extremely helpful, hopefully will soon have some of my own money to invest in the course 🥰 until then I am definitely putting my health first and not rushing the process, doing my best to not overstress my body or to cut calories and nutrients too low!

Great idea!!

It was wild to see the difference so clearly!

Glad to hear it, thank you!

Thank you!

So glad it's helpful for you! Trust yourself AND the science (vs misinformation). The combo if the two will get you where you want to be❤

So glad it was helpful! You can absolutely still work around plateaus (and should know how to transition into your new optimal maintenance), but an easy does it approach works wonders! Keep me posted:)

So glad it resonated with you!

Our bodies are complex, as are we as humans! It takes time to figure out❤

so glad it was helpful! Those maintenance phases are SO important, as is stress management. I'm sure that's a bit more challenging with an infant🫠

so glad to hear!

Thank you!! She's great:)

FR. My extreamly golden yellow skin, golden green eyes and orangey chestnut hair have been classified as True Full Year by a bunch of apps😅. You only have to slightly approach a din a4 to my face in real life and I magically have a five o' clock Homer Simpson shadow, corpse braid dark circles and no iris💀😆. How on earth something that is about natural light reflexion is gonna work using photos? 🤯

@@naomidesigns5 I think it’s more the person who analyzed you and how expertly they manage the online factors. I’m old - was there in the 80s when Color Me Beautiful came out. I read the book and typed myself as a summer. The colors I’ve been complimented on through my life and that I feel good in have always been summer colors. When the 12- and 16- seasons system came out, I decided I wanted an official analysis. I chose Carol Brailey and sure enough, I got a typed as a true summer. If you read her bio and reviews, you can see she’s really good at what she does and how she manages the colors in an online scenario. Her before and after pictures are extraordinary. She sent me the comparisons she did, and it’s as plain as the nose on my face. It really needs to be based on skin effects using specific colors, not eye color, not veins, not hair color. Because there’s no official certification or anything, anyone can say they are a color analyst. It’s ripe for error. But I had a great experience with online analysis.

@juliej5326 lots of cool reds exist though, and her hair only looks warm and bright as it's next to a muted cool skin in warm bright lighting. If you put that exact same hair on my warm bright spring skin it wouldn't look bright at all, it would pull ashy. Light spring naturally red hair looks yellowy apricot, or bright strawberry blonde. Warm spring looks carrot orange. I have alot of Springs in my family and my in-laws are mostly Summers and a few warm Autumns so I see it everyday.

But autumn and spring were very unflattering on her. Weird. Summer really looked the best

For summers, it's usually silver or rose gold with matte finish (not shiny).

I sew most of my clothes myself. And even when buying fabric it seems almost impossible to get exactly my colours (I'm a light spring). It's very frustrating and I can't afford to get custom dye fabrics 😅

@nikkil764 I know alot of darker skinned Light Summers. Ethnicity is a very loose guess, a poor guarantee of coloring

Try the brand Kettlewell Colours, they deliver to the US

I understand. Yeah I think different people use slightly different terms, adding to the confusion. But no those are not all the same. I actually hadn't heard of the 16-season system until now. I've become more familiar with 12-season system. 12-season wheel is typically set up with bright at the top, soft at the bottom, deep on the left, and light on the right. Winter is top left, spring is top right, summer is bottom right, autumn is bottom left. Notice the cool seasons are across from each other, as are the warm seasons (winter across from summer, autumn across from spring). In the 12-season wheel, light summer colors are light and cool; their strongest characteristic is that they are high in value (not deep). Think Easter pastels. Soft summer is low chroma (desaturated, greyish, opposite of bright) and a little bit darker than light and true summer; Moody, demure, muted. True/pure summer is in the middle of the 3-wedge summer season. Not too light and not too soft. I think these tend to be the brightest/highest chroma within this season, but their strongest characteristic is that these colors are cool (not nearly as saturated as bright winter or bright spring). My understanding of the 16-season system is there are four columns, each row is the season. In the first column are the True seasons which are the purest form of these colors. For Summer specifically, the second column is light summer, which adds white to the true color and brings the value up. 3rd column is soft summer light, which adds grey to the true color, which brings the chroma down but doesn't darken the color. The 4th column is soft summer deep which adds black to the true color, bringing down the chroma and value (desaturating and darkening). Idk if that made any sense without the visual aid 😂

there should be no Bright Summer in any system as brightness is not a characteristic of Summer. Summer characteristics are coolness; softness (low intensity) and lightness. True summer has the 3 in balance.

@@flooferdoofer I just saw that the title says it was her fourth try... I think it tells a lot about how this system is forced and the results are based on the personal, biased opinions of its 'experts' instead of coming effortlessly. It is not based on a universal understanding of how colors work and how they interact with the skin tones.

No matter what, this system is just a tool and its not 100% accurate. Every shade can be more cooler or warmer. The same with red, if you add more pink it will be more tolerable for cooler season. Whats the problem?

@@Vestica-y5v It's important (if you deal with such things as a profesional) to understand that blue is always cool, yellow is always warm. You can slightly warm blue up or cool yellow down but it won't change the fact that they always stay cool and warm and they gonna act this way on your skin. Red is a neutral color, so it's different. Yes, you can make a wam red by adding yellow to it, and make a cool red by adding BLUE to it. Red is neutral per se, that's why you can simply change its temperature.

I do agree!!! Go watch merriam style, her artistic license color theory is so good!!

This is true. There is no such thing as a cool shade of yellow, you can only water it down a bit with white. Most summers cannot wear any shade of yellow at all (me especially as a Summer Cool) and I believe yellow should be kept out of the Summer palettes. I can tolerate it a bit in prints as long as the main colours are cool colours. True winters can get away with some yellow simply because of the deepness and intensity of their colouring. I think the reason they leave it in the summer palettes is because people think it makes their palette restricted which is not the case at all. As summers we avoid yellows and oranges, which are the domain of the autumns. But autumns do not have the wonderful array of Monet style cool blues that we have as summers.

True Season in 16 palette analysis system means you can wear all 3 other subseason categories from your season( cool summer, soft and light) and you would look balanced in almost everything. This also means you don't have a main characteristic very light leaning, or soft light or very cool light. I am an True Autumn in 16 palette analysis and was pointed out to me that i look good in all subseason palettes i have soft,dark and warm equal features but i have to avoid going into Spring colours because are too stark and bright for me. I hope i am making sense. There are many Colour Analysis Systems, i was the most impressed with the 16 Palette one. The 12 palette season analysis is limited just to say True Summer Season is same with Cool Summer for example or True Autumn is same with Warm Autumn Pallete and this would limit the True Seasons!

@@AndreeaC. The expert who analyzed me told me cool summer (in 16) is too much for me and light summer is washes me out. But I do think I can get away with some colors in each summer palette and all are not awful on me. Any warm, or really saturated or bright colors are definitely awful on me, though.

@lieslforbes6631 yes the 4 true seasons in the 16 system are more rare so they don't get talked about as much, but there is a palette especially for you 😘🥰

​@@lieslforbes6631 it is possible sometimes the 16 Palettes Seasons to not be enough and probably your undertone is fully cool/fully Warm, True Muted / True Bright etc. so actually expanding to an 22 Palette System and narrow down to very specific colors ! Carol Bradley has this System and in some rare ocasions these type of people exists ! In some rare ocassions also True Seasons can have a flow only to 1 or 2 of sister season Palette, for example True Summer with flow in Cool Summer, or True Spring with flow into Warm Spring and Light Spring and not necessarily all other 3 sub season palettes. Plus if you feel and see you look good in some colors just go with your instinct, sometimes people get wrong results! ❤️

Love that, thanks for sharing!

@@JessiemGolden You're welcome. Hope it helps.

I think you also need to take things to a window or door and look at them in natural light.

Well said! I'm a light spring, but I'm also a little bit True Spring. Sometimes I need a little more intensity. One thing I learned is for fall and winter, it can be hard to find clothes, so I rely on the neutrals, which for me are camel, ivory, some browns and grays, and light navy.

Love that she wore a neutral grey and covered your hair with the grey too. Best CA in my opinion...your colours look amazing on you! ❤

Thank you, loved it!

I thought I was a soft summer too! It was really noticeable in person with the drapes that those colors were too muted for me (at least most were!)

I thought the same.

I think these colors are just unusually bright for light summer, all summer is supposed to be somewhat soft. She def needs the lightness. The soft summer colors tend to be too dark. I think it's best to understand the value we need and don't stick to rigidly to the palettes anyways because they vary and what suits us is more unique than that.

@@Dani-lc9hq idk. When I saw the thumbnail, the first thing I though is she's gonna be a soft summer or aumun. She has very low contrast and that's the first thing that stook out to me.

@@michelagirotto6184 yeah she definitely has low contrast and chroma, but she's also light, so she needs both. Light summer should be soft and light.

She is a True Summer. Unfortunately that was not an option at that color analyst but if it were I'd bet that would be her result.

I think so too!
