What Is My Season?

by Heidi

Any idea which season I belong to? I have got dark brown eyes, brown black hair. My veins seem to be bluish green. My undertone seems to be ivory with a hint of yellow when I am indoors and a fluorescent light is on, but it's peach when I am in sunlight.

My overall skin colour seems to be warm beige or light olive. Both yellow gold and white gold suites me equally well.

I look great in yellow and not-so-great in brown.
I look good in both orange red and crimson. I look good in true blue and OK in dark blue.
I also look good in fuchsia, light pink and lavender.

I look great in white (even when it's up close to my face) but not in black.




According to your description it sounds like you're a Clear Winter who flows a little towards Clear Spring. It's quite normal to sometimes look good in an opposite undertone (we all belong to at least two seasonal color groups which share similar color tendencies).

It seems like you can wear very bright, vivid colors as well as warmer shades like yellow and peachier pink. I don't usually put a lot of weight on the eye color when determining a person's seasonal group because it usually doesn't dramatically affect your whole appearance, unless they're really bright (like blue, blue-green, etc.) Besides you can wear makeup to compliment your eyes.

But anyway, it appears that you have a couple of contradictions in your personal colorings which definitely might leave you confused. You should either look good in black or brown, but you say that they both don't flatter you.

To be absolutely sure, I advise you to take an online color analysis by Lora Alexander. She offers a full analysis of your personal colorings through email but she requires you to send pictures of you when you were a child + close-up pictures of you wearing different colors like black and white. This can give you an objective perspective of what colors really look good on you.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
