How To Do Your Own Colour Analysis

GUIDE
AUG 9

Correctly selected colors enliven the face,

emphasize individuality, and perfectly
complement natural shades. The first thing
to start with when forming your wardrobe is
to make your color analysis test. The basics
of the color analysis are based on four
seasons: winter, spring, summer, and
autumn. To determine a color type is
possible by your skin pigment, eye, and hair
color.

Hairs Skin tone

Eyes colour

But analysis of external data alone is not

enough to determine the exact color type.
At this stage, this is just a vector direction
where you go next. At first glance, all this
may seem pointless. But I assure you, after
the correct analysis, you will see how
effectively it works in practice. You will find
it significant to know which colors suit you
best. Indeed, with the help of color, you can
significantly emphasize your appearance. Or
you can get lost in the crowd and make
yourself invisible.

4 Season Colour Analysis

Four seasons color wheel

The theory is base on four seasons. It says

that all people can divide into four seasons
winter, summer, spring and autumn. People
with a color type Winter and Summer have a
cold undertone, veins bluish or purple, the
hair is of pure colors without golden
highlights. Winter-looking people have a
brighter appearance than Summer-looking
people. The summer color-type people are a
more muted look. Owners of the Spring and
Autumn color type are people with warm
skin tones, greenish veins, and hair that give
a golden tint. Moreover, Autumn is darker
than Spring.

Look carefully at the diagram for which the

gradations of all seasons are clearly visible.
Based on the four seasons theory, analyze
your appearance yourself. Try to find the
unique characteristic of your look. What
catches at first glance?

As you can see on this wheel, Winter and

Summer belong to cold colors, but Spring
and Autumn are warm colors. Soft colors
will be in Autumn and Summer, but bright
colors are in Winter and Spring. Light colors
are in Spring and Summer but dark in
Autumn and Winter.
