Maybe it's just me, but I think it's very subjective. I liked her better in some colors than the ones chosen as "best."
There's definitely some art to picking out the best color, and sometimes more than one color is going to look good on a person, but overall, one category of colors will stand out as consistently looking flattering. In this case it's the warm, bold colors; the soft pastels really wash her out. But there are colors (like coral in the pinks) where it was really hard to choose a best.

Did you happen to like here well in the Winter colors (cooler but still high saturation), since Sakura is a Deep Autumn, she looks great in Deep and Cool colors as well. What you're looking for in a color category is an overall trend. You'll notice that most of the pastel, pale colors don't stand up to the her complexion while the powerful, rich colors too. Indiivudal tastes may vary on the occasional color, but the overall trend tends to be more universal.
@@reachelbagley yeah i heard that people with deep autumn season are able to pull off some of the warmer deep winter colors
@@fathiyyah3198 I'm a deep autumn and I get complimented when I wear royal purple and other deep jewel tones, and they normally flatter deep winter skin tones.
The saddest thing is when my favorite color won't look good on me, I will still love you periwinkle and my pale fave colors
Right in the feels. :(
you can wear your favorite color just pick a cool or warm tone. In any case a similar color with your undertone works;)
@@stephaniesalinas7699 You know, finding a nice shade of colors in clothing or designing would make us think like, "that's really nice color." But all depends on the different shades for the seasons.
Same. Bye bye, pastels. I always had a gut feeling the jewel tones were my colors.
River Beee oh god i completely forgot that i commented that ahaha 😂
Being brown and warm skinned, I got all of them correct. But then again its years of wrapping myself in different coloured sari's and finding out what looks best on me. This also helped me clear any last doubts I had about certain colours that would suit me. 😊💗
oooh i wish you had more of these for darker skin tones, because this was a fantastic example. I love how this caters to color choices to fit a mood or look, this is definitely how i think when i pick an outfit. I just need to figure out what "season" i am.
I have some more dark complexions on my website if you're interested. Check it out here: cardiganempire.com/2017/03/best-worst-colors-for-winter-seasonal-color-analysis.html Thanks for watching.
I find, pumpkin looks good on her, as well as Hunter. Chocolate looks good too.
Thank you this is very helpful! I guessed almost all correctly. Im struggling with my yellowish skin and most of the tutorials just say to wear warm tones and i thought it was only orange and yellow and gold. But while orange and yellow look okay on me, i felt that i looked best in magenta and turquoise. This video confirms it.
Thank you so so much for taking out the time to make this video, It was very detailed, and I love the way you put all the same colors together so that we could look at how it looks on the skin all at once. I know it’s pretty old, but I am glad it is still here for me to watch and learn what colors look best with my warm medium skin tone.
Thank you. ❤
My closet is mainly black because I can never decide on my colors. Will use this video everytime I go clothes shopping. Great help!
XD I'm really bad at this game
Ha, ha. Sometimes it's an acquired skill. ;)
This was like looking in a mirror in terms of seeing which colors looked best on her. I look best in less contrasted and more deep colors. Thank you! Great video too. Very modern and good choice of model.
Wow.. I'm golden beige too and wine, army green and brown are always be my favourite as I knew it matches my skin tone. Same goes for deep sky blue. It brightens my skin
as a warm toned person i totally got how she looked better in the warm bold colors she looked amazing!!
I'm warm toned too. I love seeing the subtle difference that the bold colors brings out :)
shes so pretty!
My skintone is so confusing. I really look good with autumn warm colour, but some of them I don't look good. Colour from cool tone sometimes suit me more 😞😞😞
Perhaps Soft Autumn would be a good fit. Try looking through all the autumn options at : cardiganempire.com/2016/03/best-worst-colors-for-autumn-seasonal-color-analysis.html
I think the reason other colours sometimes look good is because you can have cool tones in your hair and warm tones in your skin, so you kinda choose what will pop most, but if you want to look healthiest you probably want to make your skin pop the most with colours that bring out 'healthy undertones'
This brought back wonderful memories of the Brady bunch show 😁
I have just discovered your channel! Amazing :) And I have just realized that I am good at picking the colors. I guessed the right ones when looking at the woman from the video. Subscribed!
Best video on the subject. You made this rather confusing topic easy to understand.
When talking about foundation, I need warmer toned make up. But Autumn colors look awful next to my face. Even though I prefer that palette, I need cool Winter colors next to my face to be the most flattering. Maybe because I'm half Norwegian and half Mexican, my colors are mixed up.
hi thank you for that amazing explanation! i‘m also an autumn but i need more muted colours... could you maybe go into more depth about the differences in each season? ✨
I am definitely a warmer skin color or at least tending towards warm but my hair is blond and kind of light but not cool and my eyes are a deep dark blue, but every video on warm skintones is with a different type that me
Thnku so much,, now i knew why pastel colours doesn't match my skin.... Grey nvr suits me
Can you do a video for challenging light olive skin, when in the winter it's super green/wan and in the summer gets warmer and tan?
i found out im a autmn warm deep and when i tan i could cool briilliant colors
This is soooo informative and helpful. Thank you for this!
thank you , one of the best videos out there
This is the video I have been looking for ❤ thank you so much
She looked the best in Hunter green to me
I am updating my wardrobe and this is very helpful. Thanks!
I got most of them right
i got all the answers right but i can't choose the right colours for myself
It's very subtle but bright light colors seem to make her look green.
It's really interesting to watch how different combinations of hue, saturation, and color purity effect the skin. Thanks for watching.
This was super helpful, thank you.
So glad you liked it. Thanks for the comment :)
Very Informative video ❤ thanku
Guessed almost everything! Cool+
I think the worst colors you chose looked good on her, as well
finally! I needed this!!!
Best video ever
This was so helpful! Thank you!
hi I was confused my skin colour is not fully white or black. it's just a normal color. so please tell me that which colors are suitable for me
Hi im more like a warm skin tone. Does that mean pastel colors doesnt look good on me?
Hi Jocel, some warm skin tones like Warm Spring look poor in pastels, but other warm skin tones like Soft Autumn suit them. You'll also want to consider the contrast between your features to determine whether you'll look better in strong or weak colors. Feel free to explore more here: cardiganempire.com/2016/03/your-best-worst-colors.html
I have no idea if I'm spring or autumn..My skin tone is pretty neutral with warm undertones and it's pale (i have both blue and green veins, but on the skin I see warm hue to it), my eyes are warm dark brown, but my hair is somewhat golden blonde. I think the colour of my eyes together with the colour of my hair doesn't look so good and this combination is confusing me and I can't decide if deep or bright colours look better on me. What do you think? Your help would be much appreciated :)
I have a darker color than this girl shown here bt blue doesnt go with my skin tone . I suffer a lot with ths. Please help me out. Now, i will go to college pls suggest me .
How can I get the color pallet (actual cloth)? then I can take when go shopping.
Are you still doing online analysis?
I really enjoyed this video, it's so useful. My hair is dark brown as well as my eyes. My skin is very pale and warm but I don ' t know if I should use black and white color. Could you give me an advice?. Please
You are a deep autumn. The deep winter is your 'sister type'. So you can wear the darker shades from the dark winter shades too :-) This means you can go for black as well but white is not a very good choice. If you want to wear white make sure you are wearing a vanilla tone which is a bit warm.
This was fun!
I look good in both the colors for cool skin and dark hair (except bright white) and for warm skin and dark hair and I look bad in all the colors that are bad for cool skin and dark hair and for warm skin and dark hair. I have both yellows and pink in my skin. I look fine in greys, blacks, winter white and cream, but look washed out in bright white. When I am wearing the wrong color I look sallow. So what am I?
You sound like a Cool and delicate undertone or warm and delicate undertone , check out merriam style's colour analysis videos
I want this on myself so bad! lol
Thanks for this video...more videos for warm undertones just like me.
thank you! Can you help me with the following: I still don't 'see'when a color is cool or warm. I am a deep autumn.
I'd say it's all the colors I can find in autumn in the woods
I color is warm when it has an yellow/orange undertone, it is cool when it has a blue undertone you can use the app color grab to understand the colors better
This is exactly me!
awesome video....!
Could you feature dark skinned women?
It was Confusing cuz she looked good in the other colours too
I really loooved this video. So much¡!
I have been following you for a while, and I just wanted to say that I love your videos and overall channel Reachel! I believe that I am a soft autumn, with a neutral skintone. My hair is not as gold as the many celebrity examples shown for soft autumns, actually it is just mousy brown (It has a goldy tone in sunlight, being the only exception), and I was wondering if I could wear dark plum, raisin purplish shades on my lips? Is that too overdone, suiting a true-autumn instead, or can I still wear it?
Eggplant or aubergine purple can be very pretty on a Soft Autumn. I would probably look for a color that's not entirely matte since that shade is pretty dark, or maybe look for a warm gloss to wear on top to take out some of the intensity.
***** Thxxx!!
Very useful 🤩🤩🤩
Great Video!! But its so strange! I have that type of tone, but I have a (cold?) neon green shirt, and thats matches me so well !?
OKAY Found it on Ur Website !!!! It's ROBIN EGG ! Thats why *___*
Hi Reachel Bagley ...first of all have a great 2017. This topic is something I always think I understand but I still don't. Plus, people around us aren't honest..I have dark brown hair and eyes and pale skin. I know dark colors look good on me (deep red, blue, dark purple). But what about the lighter shades? Do they all necessarily make girls like me look 'sick' or something? Colors like baby blue, creamy green, peachy colors, pinks?? And what about brown? I happen to adore all shades of brown and wear them regularly. I guess I'd appreciate your opinion on this - thanxs anyway!
Hi Ismene, With dark brown hair, dark eyes, and pale skin, you're probably a Deep Winter or a Deep Autumn. If you like browns, it's likely you're a Deep Autumn (Deep Winter's typically don't favor browns). Baby blue, powder pink, and lavender are typically poor colors for a Deep Autumn, but peachy corals, olive greens, etc can be really flattering. Feel free to explore more here - cardiganempire.com/2016/03/best-worst-colors-for-autumn-seasonal-color-analysis.html
I can't understand ,lol
Aha what song is this??
this just confused me coral fit me the best but she picked anther one
I was actually split on picking coral or salmon for Sakura as well. She looked great in both. I selected Salmon for this video because most Autumns look best in that color, but I can see where you might get confused.
But i want to wear pastels 😪
You can and you should cuz when you feel your best to heck with everyone else cuz you’ll also look your best ya dig baby baby
I loved this!
my skintone is olive
There are two kinds of olive skin tone: warm golden olive, and cool green olive. The former falls into the Warm & Rich (autumn) category. Check it out here: cardiganempire.com/2016/03/best-worst-colors-for-autumn-seasonal-color-analysis.html
This was very helpful, but it would have been better if the model wasn't wearing makeup as to make it easier to see how the different colours affect her skin...
color analysis is done with completely No makeup on
I absolutely agree that this is the best way to do a color analysis. However, in order to get my sweet models to comply, I allowed them to wear makeup and asked that they keep in neutral. But you are right.
This isn't helping 4 other ppl tho
👍
I didn't get anytinhg... Girl fashion is hella confusing.
confused
I don't get it lol she looked good in many colours XD
i think she's too pretty for this test in a sense... that she really does look good in most of the colors!! : D
I agree she looks great in a lot of the colors, but she looks amazing in a few of them and pretty sallow in a few of them (mostly the pastels). I don't think she can wear the warm, bold colors exclusively, she has some room to explore. But I think it gives her some direction, and hopefully some other people too :)
I agree. This is why I think she might lean on more of a neutral skin tone. Also I don't think determining undertones on how good you look is the best way to go about it, more so in how your skin/hair pops and comes across.
@@wow5lollithx
@@wow5lolli no she's not, I think she's great for this test. She may be neutral, but she leans warm.
I have a darker color than this girl shown here bt blue doesnt go with my skin tone . I suffer a lot with ths. Please help me out. Now, i will go to college pls suggest me .
I think I just failed a very important exam in life...
Laura Palacio Don't feel like that. We all can use more colors than they actually want us to believe. You can always choose any color and see if a lighter/ brighter/ darker or more dull you like it the most on you. I'm pretty sure you will end up so sorprised finding out you have a ton of variation that look good on you. (And this particular video does not explain a lot of this about fashion). You can look for more videos.
Such a Beautiful girl👌 every color looked gorgeous on her😅
Her smile in some kinda overrode the whole color scheme...
Gotta let them ugly gals get some chances to model. A good color will be more striking on them.
@@bellj753 ?? she's gorgous with a beautiful smile
theAbeElement i think bell is saying the model is so distractingly beautiful that it's difficult to determine in which colors she looks good.
Imo however, confident people generally pull off a wider range of styles and colors💁🏻♀️
@@cheery-hex I never said she wasn't. All the colors look nice her because she is very pretty. Ugly models make the clothes look better because you can notice the outfit better, it would be the same with this color test.
Lol well i chose a different color for her most of the times!!! She looks great in almost all of them except pale ones
Hi, Reachel! I found it fascinating that when looking at the four colors, my eyes would gravitate to the winner and it was actually difficult to draw them away to check out the other three colors. It goes to show how powerful the RIGHT color can be! I'm so eager to see more videos like this!
+Jesse May Thanks so much for the feedback, I really appreciate it.
I used an app called Color Grab. It shows my skin being in the Orange-Brown or Orange-Yellow. So on a color wheel, dusty blue is the complementary color. The dusty blue and pastel blue makes me look terrible. Makes me look like I have bags under my eyes. Jeweled blues like dark teal make me look healthy. Green is my difficult area. I tried olive tones, but to me, it makes me look sallow or jaundice or more olive green. On the RGB percentages, I had a lot of red 81.2% followed by a lot of green 63.5% and blue was the lowest value 51%. On the CMYK percentages, I had a lot of yellow compared to magenta and black. There was no blue. Tried a jungle green shirt and it was strongly saturated and I didn't look sallow. Greens and blues are more confusing than any other area. So I'll have to keep experimenting. I know I definitely need strong colors. Soft tones don't do a thing for me.
Olive green bring out my dark eyes dark hair look best in any greens except no neon colors.I think look better in pastels beige,brown
Thanks! I just realized at age 42 that this is my colour palette. I am always drawn to these colours and have noticed my favourite pastels look awful on me and I do not feel good in them no matter how much I adore them. Now I can focus on my wardrobe with more intention. 😘
I still don't get it. I will never understand.
I hope people aren't hard on themselves if they don't get all of these questions right. Firstly, which colors look best is somewhat subjective. Second, this girl is wearing makeup for the video, so that can throw you off. Third, it can be challenging to do this test watching someone on camera, not to mention with studio lights as opposed to natural light. I'm not trying to be overly critical, as this exercise was still enjoyable, but just giving some perspective.
I picked most of the right ones. I never really liked fushia or pink on me. I do like salmon color though, so pretty. I also have own most of the colors that suit me apparently. I really liked the video, it has given me some ideas for more colors to explore.
I don't know if I'm a Soft or Deep Autumn, I have light skin with yellow undertones I think, which tans very easily and gets freckles when exposed to the sun. My hair is ashy light brown and gets golden highlights with the sun, and I have deep brown eyes, almost black. What am I if I have low contrast hair but dark eyes? Help :(
i must look like you, but only my face tans (not my neck or rest of my body) I could never find any answer :(
I kind of cheated since I first saw this on cardigan empire's site but it's really helpful! I'm closer to a deep autumn and can borrow from some deep winter colors but I never knew I looked so bad in pastels 😅
is it possible to still be in the fall season having much fairer skin that this girl and blue(/green) eyes?
I mean I believe in color analysis, but the backgrounds are different in some of the examples which makes me think there's some editing to make it more obvious-- which gives me doubt.
how would wearing hijab play into this do u think? :P thanks!
Because a hijab is worn so close to the face, the color is going to make a huge impact on the complexion. It's probably the most important article of clothing you'll put on color wise. It would be really interesting to do a video about this. Thanks for watching!
I totally agree about the need for diversity in color theory and have been working on draping more women of color for experience. It's so fun to see the differences. I would agree about determining your color without your hijab first and then picking a flattering color based on your decision. Good luck!
@@reachelbagley yes please do a hijabi colour analysis.
I thought orange was only for warm tones? But I see cool tones?
I didn’t see differences in any of these - ugh
Hi Reachel, thank you for posting this video. I look very much like the model here. I think I also have a warm autumn skin tone. I am thinking about buying a new trench coat and a new cashmere coat. I am debating between the honey color and black color burberry trench coat. I am wondering if I look better in the recently discontinued stone color better than the honey color. I am afraid the honey color would wash me out. But I am afraid the black color would be too boring and look too heavy in spring and autumn. I am also debating between the max mara camel color coat and black color coat. I think black is a staple but I like camel color better. The trouble is I am not sure if camel is my color and if it will wash me out as well. Could you give me some advice? I think you mentioned in the posts that black might be too contrasting for a warm autumn?
The video moved too quickly for me to be able really to look at the colors and answer the questions.
You can pause the vid mam
I scored a perfect 0
Wow, I am in meetings every day and miserable because I think I am ugly. If I had a better handle on what colors looked better on me I would be so much more confident. Thank you.
The first girl is warm tone. She wear gold better than silver.
Song name???
*WHEN YOU WANNA DYE YOUR HAIR BLUE BUT NNOOOOO YOU CANT HAVE THAT WITH WARM SKIN*
Blue hair actually flatters warm skin its a complementary opposite provided its two toned with black
🍓
I have the same opinion for all of them!I have the same tone skin. I am an artist maybe this is the reason?
