Why colour matters
Some colours make your skin look bright and rested; others can make you look tired or washed out, even when nothing else has changed. Colour analysis is a fun, loose system for finding your best shades, especially for things near your face: tops, scarves, glasses, hair colour and lipstick.
The three things that matter
- Undertone - the hue under your skinβs surface: warm (golden, peachy), cool (pink, rosy, bluish) or neutral (a mix). Olive skin often sits between, with a greenish cast.
- Value - how light or deep your overall colouring is (skin, hair, eyes together).
- Chroma / contrast - whether you look best in clear, bright colours or soft, muted ones. High contrast between hair and skin often suits bold colours.
The four seasons (in a nutshell)
| Season | Undertone | Vibe | Try |
|---|---|---|---|
| πΈ Spring | Warm | Light, clear, fresh | Coral, peach, warm aqua, golden yellow, ivory |
| π Summer | Cool | Light, soft, misty | Dusty rose, lavender, powder blue, soft grey |
| π Autumn | Warm | Deep, rich, muted | Olive, rust, mustard, camel, teal |
| βοΈ Winter | Cool | Deep, clear, high contrast | Black, pure white, emerald, royal blue, fuchsia |
Try it
Use the tool to answer a few questions about your colouring. Daylight by a window, no makeup and a plain white or grey top work best.
Colour combos that always work
- Monochrome: shades of one colour (blush top, rose skirt) - instantly polished.
- Neutral + one colour: navy, camel, grey, black, white or denim with a single bright pop.
- Analogous: neighbours on the colour wheel (pink + coral, blue + green) - harmonious.
- Complementary: opposites (purple + yellow, blue + orange) - bold and fun. Try them in small doses first.
