I've been watching color analysis videos from professional accounts for the past year and let me tell you that your video cleared out all my doubts and made it super simple to understand and put it into practice for the first time! Loved it! Thank you!
Those pinks are cool toned! But on the greens I do agree. And that you look better in ivory/off white and gold then silver. So autumn it is. Maybe some light springs you can borrow or soft summer as well.
This was great!! Thank you for doing this! I have really been wanting to do this too. I am changing my hair color next week and want to do more of a copper red with highlights.
THANK YOU!!!! I was in second guessing hell! Your video was extremely helpful and walking through your process and showing images while doing so really helped. 🙏🏻 😊
Yes, I agree with a comment below, watch Colour Analysis Studio or Sara Ryan, the Style Coach, for the correct order to do things in. Trying white or off white and metallics first is not great, try instead a cool red and a warm red, a cool green and a warm green. Then and only then, after establishing warm or cool, go to only warm or cool colours, which are light or dark, muted or bright. You need to get the steps in the right order and find the correct shades to drape with. Also, no makeup for the whole process, otherwise things are thrown off.
This was really nice! I feel like whoever invented this messed up spring and summer though. I always thought of spring as cooler and more muted, like pastels and summer as more bright and bold but maybe that's just me.
This is a really good summary! I like how you address the tips that might not work for everyone. Draping is really the only way to be sure. I thought I was an autumn because I had a jumper that was a fairly strong pink, but it was an autumn pink so the pink had a touch of grey in it. I rarely wear makeup but every time I wore it I needed lipstick because my lips looked so sad and lifeless by comparison. I thought it must be too bright so I began wearing softer colours. But then I saw photos and I looked so washed out and tired!! After taking time to try more different colours I think I’m a bright spring. Just a touch of grey is enough to drain the colour from my face! The pink actually wasn’t bright enough for me. In hindsight it makes sense because I used to have these really bright warm red pants that I always felt amazing in! I never felt like I needed to wear makeup even though my lips are nowhere near that bright because I still looked healthy, I had such a nice glow when I wore them. But because I didn’t take the time to compare I got really confused for a while!
This is by far the best video explanation I’ve found of colour analyses! Looking forward to trying this out since all the quizzes I took online gave me all wildly different results 😂
@@porchlights2268 subseason is the easiest, it’s all about contrast. There’s a really good filter on tiktok for it, you can try to see if it works for you ❤️
Thank you for showing us your method. However, you are a soft autumn, but in your video you have on a white dress. (maybe it's off white and just looks white on my monitor)
I've watched videos on color analysis and could never quite understand, but your video was better explained. I now know I'm like you a soft, warm neutral slightly in between autumn and spring. I look terrible in orange, too, lol. How do we wear stark white if we have to? I just bought a dress and i have to wear it to a white dress event.
I tried to do my own analysis. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to look/judge myself without bias towards the colours/pallets that I preferred. I ended up paying for an analysis in the end.
I’ve been obsessed with colour analysis for couple of years and on every app i got dark winter/autumn because i have dark hair&eyes and fair skin. However i’m a totally soft season(soft summer to be precise)!! Do not trust the ai or apps
As a dark winter the grey vs brown test is very misleading especially when brown is a darker shade and grey is a lighter shade like here. But when I try brown, no matter which shade against black, black wins.
Makeup was the first step when i understood that i am an warm undertone, pink blushes looked like bruises and cool tone greyish leaning eyeshadows maked me look sick. Your foundation shade can be cool /warm and your skin undertone total opposite ! My foundation is always neutral but i am an True Autumn full warm undertone, so your foundation shade is not an indicator. I did the color analysis with Colour Analysis Studio from AU when i was ready to change my wardrobe, after giving birth my body changed so many upper pieces didn't fit me anymore ! All online tools where giving me Cool/Deep Winter seasons but black ,grey and very saturated colours never suited me !
I think the biggest problem is knowing which colours are warm and which cool. Especially with blues, greens and pinks. In your bright/ soft test both pinks are cool, right?
I have a question please if anyone could help after i found my unterone and let's say I'm a warm should i use just warm shades in the second part "bright or soft" to figure out if I'm autumn or spring?
Yes, definately, abandon warm tones or cool tones once that factor is established, then look at bright or soft and so on. It is a gradual, step by step process.
To me, bright colours make me look overheated, as if my colouring is trying to keep up with brightness and not coping so it washes me out. Kind of like an over exposed photo.
there's not much accuracy on doing your own color analysis at home, cause the method is comparative, and if you can't compare two tones of the same color, it won't work. you can't decide what looks best by comparing yourself with brown and gray cause there are cool browns and arm browns, cool grays and warm grays. also, there's no such thing as "pure season". what there is is the subgroup of each season, the only "pure" ones are spring and winter. summer and autumn have no "pure", the have "warm autumn" and "cool summer", those are the equivalent of the "pure" on winter and spring, if you're using the seasonal expanded method - if you're using the seasonal method, there are only the four seasons with no subcategory. and if you pointed out that the most effective way of finding the right colors is the draping, so instead of trying out in the dark yourself, just go and get draped! you'll pay for that, of course, but then you'll be paying also for much more information, if the professional you're with is actually a good one. i'm an image consultant, and i'm also color analyst professional and i needed three sessions of color analysis with colleagues of mine to understand my palette cause i'm an olive, so it's hard to actually set olive skin. not everybody can actually see how colors interact, or understands how it actually works... and, if the eye of someone else usually helps, like you said to call someone, just go get draped! you'll have a pair of trained eyes specially to do this work with much more accuracy! and don't rely on the color of the veins, or if you tan or burn, or anything like that, those are bs...
She did a pretty good job of explaining the process. In order to understand the difference between warm and cold tones before draping, people could look them up beforehand. You can play around in Paint on the computer, move the slider to a blue red or to an orange red to see the difference, for instance. She may not have the money to have a colour analysis, as other people watching this video might not.
@@cathwalsh9921 i agree, the thing is almost every color can have warm or cool tones. so even if you try to find if you're warm by using some yellow fabric you have, that fabric can be warm toned or cool toned and you won't know the difference unless you have another yellow fabric to compare with.
@@r0zinha so you get onto Paint, have a look at warm/cool yellows. Go to the diy store and compare paint cards. Look around the house. I have a pale lemon yellow hand towel. Cool toned. Marigold gloves. Warm toned. It’s not hard if you want to do it. I’ve compared reds, greens, yellows, purples and all sorts on food packets or cleaning product bottles. Go outside, look at a pine tree then another tree for differences in greens. Colors are all around you.
@@cathwalsh9921 i agree it's not hard if you wanna do it. what i'm saying is that you gotta have at least two fabrics of the same color to compare which is coo and which is warm. also, if both are cool, just one is a little more than the other, it doesn't mean the less cool is warm. it's tricky if you don't study about it, if you don't train your perception to it. even finishes are going to affect your perception, and as well you gotta have the fabrics with different finishes to see what works best, and if you're in the middle, like me, maybe it's too tricky to find out. and it can confuse you if you happen to be good in some cool colors and also in some warm colors. all of that is covered if you study about color analysis and train.
@@r0zinha but the video is aimed at people who aren’t intending to train in it , aren’t intending to go and pay a professional to get them done. They either give this a go, or they don’t. They either work it out, or they don’t.

I did draping with towels, we have a wide range of colorful hand towels. 😅 Totally worked.

That was awesome! Well done!
I am pretty sure I am Summer... but still struggling with the subseason.

Contrast is either high or low, not light or dark

What lipstick are you wearing? Looks lovely :)
Interesting ... I preferred the grey to the brown...I gave up at that point. 😂

@@masadiceronio4577 yes! Now I think I am a summer
@@kitaliss what’s made you think that you’re a summer? Not doubting, just wondering what gave you the clue.
Hi Kita! I really enjoyed your video, and I learned a lot. Are the color-palette charts available for purchase?
every photo I used is on my pinterest for free
Loved your dress
Me encantan tus videos ❣️ this was so informal thank you from California usa
Thank you love ❤️
Thank uuuuu!! This is soooo helpful! 💕
Of course girl! So glad it helps ❤️🥰
❤ Thank you lovely xx
So good, Which program do you use to edit please?
To edit my videos?
This was great🎉
I have a question please if anyone could help after i found my unterone and let's say I'm a warm should i use just warm shades in the second part "bright or soft" to figure out if I'm autumn or spring?
Yes, definately, abandon warm tones or cool tones once that factor is established, then look at bright or soft and so on. It is a gradual, step by step process.
Let me know if you have any questions ❤
Im still confused if im a true summer or bright winter. I feel like I could be both.
summers are softer, winters are more vivid colors, should pay attention to your contrast
To me, bright colours make me look overheated, as if my colouring is trying to keep up with brightness and not coping so it washes me out. Kind of like an over exposed photo.
Lots of springs burn in the sun - especially pale blonds and red heads. That’s not a good test for undertone.
Thats why I said it might not work for everyone
Your "undertone" tests are not accurate. Those test your overtone not your undertone.
The draping tests the undertone.
I think you are a summer.
