A colour analysis session is a once-off experience to discover your colours for life.
A palette is a collection of colours that emphasise your natural chromatic characteristics, making you look radiant and healthy. Colour analysis identifies your personal palette by examining your natural characteristics (undertone, intensity and value).
A colour analysis session will make you discover something new about yourself and give you the knowledge to shop less and better and to improve your wardrobe and style.

It's a very fun game! I've been playing it for a while and I recommend it as a distraction from life
I was anlayzed virtually by Alessandra and the experience was fantastic! She nailed my colors. I have been living my best deep winter life ever since. 😊
Is there a trick to know which of the two analyzed you? How do you know? I was just analyzed but the two names are at the bottom. Mine also nailed my colours!
@@brigittelgrievingmaman4932 Hi Brigitte, thanks a lot for this question! All the online analyses are done by the both of us. Then for the Deluxe sessions (which include a Zoom call) only one of us is present during the call to reveal the palette, but the analysis has been previously done by the both of us 💙
@@colouranalysis_studio Thanks for clarifying! I had purchased the standard without the zoom. If I would ever want to meet on zoom and ask more questions, could I pay the difference between the two types of services? I don’t think the zoom was an option when I bought it. Thanks
@@brigittelgrievingmaman4932 The Deluxe service works on a request basis. On the first day of each month the requests open on the website, so you can definitely put your request through should you be interested 🥰 However, we would suggest you to be quick as we can only accept a few requests per month. We hope this helps!
UNDERTONE AND INTENSITY!!!!😂
I thought I must be a warm season for years because of my general colouring (also what others thought) I got drapes done recently and turns out I'm a cool summer... 🤯 The absolute shock
Yeeeeeeey THE queens have uploaded, I drop everything and watch🤩🥳😍😍😍
❤❤❤
I'm Summer. Not clear which one. Pastels are no go. I love Winter, of course. 😂
I'm a soft summer with green eyes. I find wearing green cloth is the worst color for me. Or lets say, only very rare specific greens I find do something for me. Instead, different shades of lilac, violet and purple make my green eye color pop!
Me, a soft summer feeling so validated right now 🥹
That blue shirt is absolutely perfect on Julia omg
The second question was a good one, and I wish you had given it a little more attention. I think what they were pointing out is that the 12 season system does not give an option for the combinations of light/warm/soft, dark/warm/bright, light/cool/bright, or dark/cool/soft. For example, I know someone who has very high contrast, is cool toned, and cannot wear jewel tones. She is much better suited to soft colors. This person would likely be assigned "dark winter" in the 12 season system, but these colors might be too vibrant for her. Because the winter pallet always leans bright. Some of the soft summer colors might work well on her, but the summer pallet would not accommodate for her contrast, and the fact that she looks great in dark colors, including black. Would you be able to address this? Have you ever had a client who did not fit well into one of the 12 combinations? Thank you!
After a thorough color self analysis, I’m very hard to be color analyzed. I am confused.
they are actually using a 16 season system (the usually 12 and the true seasons, for example cool and true winter are not the same type). My mom is the same type (cool, soft and deep) and is in the cool summer (in some systems deep/dark summer) category because of that but she goes much more into winter than into the other summers. I believe Katherine of Wales is another great example for this. It's not 12 or 16 boxes who you must exactly neatly fit in.
I was recently analyzed by these lovely ladies as a Soft Summer (virtual analysis). The result was spot on, and the color examples were really helpful. Nice to hear in this video that silver and gold can be used, and that both of you would like to be a soft season, I wasn’t expecting that! 😄
I was mistyped many times a spring because I'm obviously warm (over and undertones) but my eyes are a cool, bright light green. Not bluish, but more blue than yellow/brown. Thus according to the old rules and generalizations, I'm a spring. Those colours absolutely scream on me, way too bright and light. I look dull. My Dad and his two siblings are the only other people I've met with this eye colour, and they are radically different colouring from me otherwise. How can my eyes dictate my type when my Dad is a textbook winter with identical eyeballs?
I'm not sure what kind of Autumn I am because all the subgroups seem to suit me (soft is notably a little bit too muted, but that's all I can tell) but in my heart I'm still a goth so my wardrobe is dominated by 'dark autumn' colours. Anyway, somewhere in 'autumn' lies the truth, and I guess my point is to fully agree that the eyes are way overblown and there are unfortunately still many pushing that idea, even professionals.
I love summer and autumn soft too. The pallets are just so pretty. I’m dark autumn. I tend to buy soft autumn because I feel it’s easier to find but dark autumn is so much better on me! I need to get better at finding dark autumn not what I think autumn is. I am discovering that dark autumn isn’t what I think it is. It’s not that muted. I am learning all the time.
Yea dark autumn in my experience can go up to medium intensity
I am watching you from very first video and just realised how much Julias hair grew.
Can you believe this channel exists for more than a year! Time flies.
Thank you for your videos Julia and Alexandra, its been a pleasure to watch your work and i am gratefull for this friendly approach and informative content. All the best ladies 💙🤎
Hey G and A……..❤thank you for the on line colour analysis you completed for me two weeks ago …it took me a week or so to get my head around the result of Cool Winter …for years …actually all my adult life I have myself down as an autumn ! With dark hair pale skin and Hazel eyes ….a person who took a good tan ! …..I have changed my Make up to winter colours, including some silver jewellery…and have introduced winter colours to my wardrobe, a beautiful charcoal grey wool coat for winter …keeping my more expensive non palette items with a plan to wear them with scarfs and away from my face it is amazing the difference in my appearance since I changed to my winter Palette I have such a pep in my step, once I got over losing me beloved autumn Palette of Browns, creams, khaki and burnt oranges …which looking back really did absolutely nothing for my appearance ! ! love your videos, Thank you ladies you were so so so right … I am a WINTER COOL 😎 ❤ love my new palette Mary
Light Summer can get away with gold aswell in my exprience 😊
Yes, I thought light summer and light spring could wear both metals bc they are light
Alessandra is looking beautiful and more elegant in this dress
Thanks for a great video! I was analyzed as Spring Light by these fantastic ladies last August. Up until then I was a summe (by another analyst). I am so in love with the spring palette! Still finding out my best colors which is a process. What is still difficult though is to identify the different blues, how to see if blue is warm or cool?
Yay! A Q&A!
Great last question! How cool that each person is uniquely dialed within their sub season.
Thank you for reassuring that someone with a cool undertone can have yellow surface tones. I am a Winter with a very golden skin tone when tanned... and I use spf 30 regularly. I wear Teal and Turquoise very well with my hazel eyes, which makes people think I am a warm season. But, I can wear black with no makeup, and I can wear both silver and gold jewelry.
Thanks for this video. I found it very informative. I did not guess that Giulia’s blouse was a warm blue. She looks radiant in it. I’m a True Autumn and can’t wear that colour. The warm gray answer was helpful. Also I agree with Alessandra that you can learn to love your palette/colours when you start to see how much better you look in those colours. I love cool colours but they don’t look good on me. After buying new clothes in the Autumn palette I can now see how complimentary these colours are on me. These are colours I never would have bought in the past. Now I’m starting to like them.
Interesting with the blue example. I suspect Autumns are the same but with brown.
Thank you for a very informative video. I had already been analysed as a true autumn prior to finding you which I was in denial about. It was the palette I liked the least so I can definitely undertsand that there would be people that won’t be happy with their result. I really love the summer palette. A year later, I have incorporated a number of warmer pieces in my wardrobe and I don’t understand how I couldn’t see how much they complement my skin prior to my colour analysis. I can’t go back to wearing cool colours, I look sick and sallow. I have also found that I have a lot more outfits with fewer clothes because almost everything goes well together.
I'm a soft summer. I love warm colours, so I use them in my home decoration.
I always learn something when you post a video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
Interesting Julia as the royal blue you're wearing was a very popular choice for bridesmaids dresses in the 80s because it suited the most types of people!
The blue is lovely! I would not have guessed its temperature, though. Do you have any advice for determining warm vs neutral vs cool blues please? I thought I got it but it seems I haven't.
Giulia looking STUNNING in that blue shirt! Love a bold look!
Thank you for the warm grey answer and examples. I’m a bright spring and like it as my “black” on the bottom half but so hard to find in warmer shades:( Grazie!!
So helpful again! A tip, I've been really enjoying changing the buttons on shirts especially.. and especially with thrifted and vintage shirts, a new button, and a button in the right colour for yourself can COMPLETELY change the look of the shirt and how well it matches you.. and I imagine now as im learning this, it could make the difference between a borderline colour enough to shift the overall look much more harmoniously towards something that works personally for your season, as well as updating the era on a vintage piece or even something kept from before.
Also realy appreciate this on jewellery.. after i watched your first videos a few days ago I changed all my peircings to gold and it completely changed the look of my face!! Today i went through my ither jewellery and found a warm silver in a beaten and soft finish that actually looks really warm and soft on my skin - a surprise for me, and even more surprising was a gifted tuquise necklance that i assumed would be a suitable warm blue but was actually really draining and too ashy or soft or dark or something for my looks. So interesting to see all these things with new eyes! Im having so much fun! Thank you! 😊🙏
Blue is my favourite colour but I think I'm Warm Autumn so I need to stop buying blue clothes =( I'm hopefully going to move back to Oz early next year and my plan is to have an in person appointment with you guys, love your videos xx
It's very tricky with the favourite palette (independent of my own palette) bc when I look at just the palettes I love autumn most and then spring, but when I see outfits on the street or online, it doesn't matter what palette the colors belong to 😅 Okay, maybe except bright pink or too bright greens and blues
I love your Q&As, I learn something every time ❤ and you are so lovely. thank you ❤
I've brown eyes, and in my opinion browns don't really flatter me, even the cool browns look funky, and earn brown makes me look like the Grinch. 😂
Another informative video! And excellent production value. It’s very interesting and pleasant to look at how you shoot into the mirror without seeing the camera equipment somehow. Thank you!
Love watching you both! I’ve been learning so much. One question that is always at the back of my mind is: how do perceive the undertone of a colour? So when I’m choosing fabrics and fibres for myself to wear, how can I know if, for example, I’m choosing a warm or cool red?
Thanks!!!
Yay this! I think I'm a summer but sometimes I like warmer tones on me and feel confused
If you are a light summer, your sister from a different mister is light spring, thus your ability to get away with some warmth. It would be most important that your colors be light in value rather than warm/cool or deep/soft. It is similar if soft is your dominant. The sister palette is soft autumn. Again you can reach over and grab some warmth there as well. Most important for this palette is soft, muted blends of color rather than warm/cool or light/deep. If you end up cool or true summer than you are fully cool in undertone and should avoid warm and warm bias colors as they will cause your skin to sallow (get an unnatural yellowing effect).
Oh thanks for your answers, that was very interesting!
I was surprised to hear that yellow skin can have cold undertone! I personally have very light skin with yellow tone, a little olive, and I always considered myself as a "warmskinned" one and a soft autumn (as I look my best in softer and warmer colors), but I also can wear some colors from summer soft palette. Now I am a little confused with my characteristics, but it actually makes sense :)
You two are terrific. I have submitted for an online color analysis. The deluxe package was not available so I did the basic one. I just hope it all works out. Love from USA
Did you get your results yet? I also submitted mine
So fun! Thank you both. I look forward to my online session with you that I have planned for the end of June. ❤❤❤
So exciting to see how this channel is growing. You both are so well-versed in your craft and it’s lovely to watch. Would love an analysis- hopefully one day!
Love this video and your channel. I echo the nice message - I’ve learnt so much!
Yay, I just booked with you ladies! Can’t wait 😛
Giulia, please share your lip product and shirt!! Perfect!!
Hi Jena, thank you! The shirt is Italian (Biaggini, Roma) found in a second hand shop in Italy. The lip product is Revlon HD Matte Lip Color - Obsession ❤Giulia
@@colouranalysis_studiothank you so much! I am always wondering about your lip products in the videos because it's bright for a winter but still casual and natural looking! Very pretty
Yes! I’m winter deep and prefer gold jewelry instead of silver.
Rose gold first, then gold, then silver.
I found the analysis helped me expand on my color and metal options. I mostly wear gold jewelry but after learning silver is more harmonious I incorporated more silver and white gold jewelry and now I love both! More options!
My hair is now white so my clothing choices seem to have gone to bolder colors. I’m still a huge fan of back & white. In fact packing all black & white items in a backpack only for a two week trip to Scotland, Copenhagen & Iceland. Even if it’s not in my pallet I won’t give it up.
You two are awesome! I’d love to be analyzed by you! 💕✨
Always a pleasure to see you! That warm gray thing is a mystery to me. A grain of gray seems to be enough to make me look dying. Will definitely make an analysis online but I guess my home will be found in spring.
all neutrals have undertones, especially grey. There are 3 possible undertones for grey. They are either green (warm), blue, or violet (both cool). Concrete and stone have the green undertone. When the grey trend took off in home design, people rushed out and painted their home exteriors in violet toned greys then wondered why it looked bad and people asked them "why did you paint your house purple". They did not realise the importance of undertones. Exterior grey in Australia needs to have the warm green undertone unless you want the blue or violet look on purpose.
You guys helped me out a lot, even though I’m a darker blonde and evidently cool-toned (I look terrible in any amount of warmth). So, a lot of people would put me in summer. I noticed that the light subgroup and soft subgroup are terrible, and cool summer is too muted. So, you’ve definitely helped me get closer to an answer.
One day, I'll also take your service when I become rich😅😅
Right now I'm binge watching your videos 😄😄
So happy to see you again ladies, just these days i've checked your channel thinking probably i've missed your uploads 😅! I will be very honest i do tend to wear warm or soft palettes but not so much the deep autumn , something about the dark colours never loved in my wardrobe.
When i startet to look i did think this blue is not good for you. It stands out to match. Know i know why 😂
I was analysed as a autumn in the 80 is, later as a spring bright, then as a winter. I was never really happy. Know i made a new analysis in switzerland and i am really a summer. I am happy now i don’t need match makeup to look good 👍
Love your videos. Greetings from switzerland. 👋
I'm amazed how both of you love the summer soft palette the most, because it is my favourite too. I have seen some people online dislike it as too dull or whatever, but it's such a fascinatingly beautiful one for me. It's interesting how divided people seem to be when it comes to their preference for either bright or soft. I'm wondering about your client's preferences so far.
Since I'm a warm autumn too, I will also look like a ghost in it. 😄 tried it many times before discovering color theory, but it never had the effect I wanted. 😄
As a soft summer that palette is definitely the most sophisticated on me, but I do struggle sometimes because i like stronger colours. I feel like they fit my personality more. But a cool and light pink for example is a bit much on me. I still accomodate these colours in my style, but balance them out with the softer colours. Luckily I love grey and different whites as neutrals. 😀
@@nellivilhelmiina I agree, we use colors to go with our personalities also. It's a bit of a mixture, that also makes it fit intuitively, because we can sense someone's vibe. My friend is a bright spring, and her personality fits so well with it also, that bright spring looks dreamy and fascinating on her, and not all that bright, because she is, and she never really strays from her palette. I do think warm autumn fits my vibe just like that but I still like other palettes too and especially soft summer. 😄 I noticed that I can go for soft autumn make up sometimes and it will have kind of have the effect that I wanted to achieve with soft summer makeup previously, because I'm that warm. But I can't wear a lot of soft autumn colors in other instances, and not really any soft summer colors, maybe if I paired them in some way, I have yet to figure out. I think the colors will be received in relation to a person's coloration and that will create its own effects, which can sometimes look really nice too, even if not ideal for the complexion. While I do envy your palette, I understand wanting to go for brighter colors also. Mixing colors that go well with each other sounds like a great idea and neutrals can be a reliable staple. Maybe I'll find a combination like that too. 😀 even though it's much easier when you stay in the same general season, I think there is more to be discovered. 😊
Well I didn’t spot that Julia’s blue was a warm blue!!! 🤦🏻♀️
that is because computer and phone screens have a blue bias. In the flesh it is easier to see the blue shirt will have a slightly warm undertone.
Love the channel! You gals are great.❤ I've noticed that the lighting is darker on the right side of the screen. Look at the wall behind you two and you'll see what I mean. It has an effect on the colors you show and wear. Cheers, from Texas!
I have a question. How is a color analysis different than hiring a stylist? Do stylists have training in color analysis?
You know what confuses me so much. I swear I see myself as like yellowish but everyone says I'm very pink. And I can admit I do sometimes catch myself in mirrors at shops with bright lights and I do look very pink but why do I still see like a yellowish color on myself?
What a great session 😍! Love your color explanation, and your personal charm helps quite a lot 😃. Today was special since you allowed me to wear anything I want 😄🙃😉
Hi! I love your videos and I'm learning so much by watching you! Would it be possible to know which drape kit you use? If not, is there one you would recommend for those who wish to purchase it? I look forward to the next colour analysis! ❤
I LOVE your videos, thank you so much for making them!! I have a question for your next Q&A. I am very confident that I have a cool undertone to my skin, but my brown hair has quite a bit of warmth to it, including some natural gold highlights in front. Is it still possible for me to be a summer or winter? Thanks!
Always get something from your videos, ladies. Some good questions on this one. Well, I can say that I'm a very happy Autumn. The only misgiving, now that I've moved into the Soft palette from the Deep, is that I should avoid burnt orange.... and I absolutely adore this colour.
For eye color obssessed people: Do iris photography ;) I recently did and I could not recognize my eyes! It is like looking your iris at a microscope and you see colors and patterns that you can not with a naked eye! It is very interesting. For example I perceive my eyes as green-blue, but by other people they are perceived as blue. But on the photo i could see how much amber pigment they have, they look almost yellow! So the blue on the surface and the amber inside make the green. Anyway, this is a little bit out of topic. Regarding the color analysis and the eye color - I also thought green eyes-green clothes, BUT i didn't know about the complementary colors then ;)
All my life I thought I had brown eyes with some green flecks but no, half my iris is medium brown and the other moss green with gold flecks. Only after the photo of my eyes is it now obvious that my eyes are dark hazel from a distance and not brown.
I always thought my eyes were dark brown, as everyone always told me that. it wasn't until I went to art college and we had to do an exercise, that I found they were dark olive green, with brown/gold bits in them and an gold ring around the black pupil. We had to examine them under a big magnifying glass and then mix paint colours to match all the different colours we saw in our eyes. It was quite revealing to really look and record it all on paper. Now they have changed with age, the inner ring has gone completely, they are a lighter olive green with yellow and grey bits instead and a grey ring around the outside. I assume this means they have cooled down in colour too?!
Two seconds into the video and your Italian shows very clearly already xD
I know I am a Summer. How can I tell if I am a summer cool, light,soft or true summer? Would love to know.
Loved the video and the last question (I think it was mine, lol).
Gillian and Alessandra , another colour analysis person says that it is helpful firstly by looking back to your natural hair colour in your early twenties as an important aspect to choosing your colour season ? Would you place any relevance to this or would you disregard ? Many thanks indeed in advance 🙏
Hey, girls, I love your videos!
Can you be slightly soft and slightly deep? I know I lean cool with a some yellow overtone. I need slightly soft (some soft and cool summer colors work). I’m slightly deep (not a deep winter, but some colors work). My hair before gray was quite dark (maybe level 4/5) and my gray olive eyes (soft) are medium in depth. Silver jewelry works best (light gold works ok), and I actually think rose tone clashes with my yellow overtone.
Hello! I love your videos and I’ve learned so much! I absolutely love color and color theory, and color analysis is a whole other level that I’ve recently been exploring! I was wondering where you got your drapes from? I’m looking into color analysis and possibly getting certified. What process did you go through to get where you are? Thanks!😁
Another question have you seen any dark skinned light summer or springs?
Great!!!
Hi,
Does lip color affects our seasonal color?
Reviewing my old photos I haven't seen in years helped me a lot to see that reach autumn colours always looked fantastic on me. I was bouncing bw autumn and winter, but some online apps showed I belong to summer. I can't say I am 100% sure I belong to autumn, but old pictures still help a lot, because it's like to see yourself from someone else's point of view. I am curious, do you ask your online clients to send their childhood or just older pictures of them? Does it matter in an online analysis, especially if a person naturally changes their colour throughout the years (I don't mean becoming grey)?
It’s really difficult to take a good picture of my skin because it often appears brighter or softer or less pigmented when I take a photo. How are you sure that you get a good result to start the online analysis ?
hello beautiful ladies, i've been wondering if i don't suit any of the spring colours bc they make me look blotchy, is there a possibility i'm not in the warm category?
Can you do a video on make up
They have done one, and it’s excellent! You REALLY see the difference when the two of them swap makeup shades.
Hello, can a winter turn into summer during Summer season when their hair gets bleached by the sun?
I’m a true summer . So does that mean I can wear all the summer sub seasons equally well ?
Correct 🥰
Where are you from? You have very interesting accent ❤
Hi Ladies, thank you very much for the video I am really your fan from Ireland.
I have a question for you, maybe it would be interesting also for other your subscribers with freckles. There a lot of people have freckles in Ireland, so do I.
And it is confusing, are they warm or cool?
Is it true that only warm seasons can have freckles? or there are cool freckles and warm freckles?
I am not talking about several freckles on the nose, but about cases where the whole face is covered by freckles.
if you had some time and inspiration, I would be thankful I you could go deeper this topic for us.
Thank you in advance!
Question from Argentina:
I consider that I am winter brilliant. I have all the characteristics for it, my skin shines, my hair and skin and eyes have contrast and the colors of that season suit me great.
Many fellow image consultants here in my country told me that I couldn't be bright because I had brown eyes.
I think and believe because of how the colors suit me very well that I am bright, people tell me how good it looks on me and those good expressions.
I am right ? Can I be with brown eyes?
thank you! I am also an image consultant, I always follow them.
waiting for your reply
I'd say my main mistake I buying always my 3 favourite colours of my palette. I feel restricted and my wardrobe is getting repetitive? Any advice for a winter looking for inspiration?
Kettlebell is a clothing company that sells colors based on seasonal analysis. They have in-depth blogs about different color combinations and have some videos on YT as well with their stylist. It gives me another perspective which is appreciated.
@@charlestonscnative9083 amazing, thank you! Will check them out immediately. I'd really love for this channel to post more videos on styling one's palette, but thanks for the recommendation!
Kettlewell, not bell.
Their catalogues are great.
Think about texture! I love monochromatic outfits that use different fabrics and textures.
Try buying colors from your palette that aren't in that 3. Maybe 1 at a time mixed with the 3. Then eventually you will have plenty of choices without breaking the bank or going too far afield of your comfort zone.
Why is a colour analysis so expensive?
Because it can only be done by professional and not everyone. Then, Is it really so expensive for something you do once in your life?
People need to pay their rents, like you also have to.
I have a question: why, as a winter, would a pewter (darkish taupe) drape be noticeably better than even jewel tones?
Maybe you have some depth or maybe you might be summer instead. Pewter isn't generally in the winter palette.
@@MaryYoungblood-xy8vg I’ve been typed by seasonal and tonal consultants as winter and clear respectively
@cathwalsh9921 clears should definitely wear jewel tones and not pewter well. Pewter is cool but softer. It is a better color for cool summer and as an extension cool winter can "borrow ". It would be too dull for the clear (same as bright in Sarah's system) and too light for the dark/deep. That is why I was questioning it. Professional analysis is usually correct but not always (my first was completely wrong and had to be redone). Also maybe your analysis was right but the color you are describing as "pewter" might be different than the color I interpret it as (we all see color a bit different and Pantone might label a different color as "pewter" than Sarah would. ) Also sometimes we aren't the best judges of color on ourselves. We might like a particular color or might think a color works because we see the color well (but the color is actually distracting or arriving in the room before we do.) Keep wearing pewter if you like it and it makes you happy. That's why we do this anyway.
@@MaryYoungblood-xy8vg it doesn’t particularly make me happy, I was just astonished at how good it made my face look. It’s not the same as Pantone pewter nor taupe. I’ll have to have another look in daylight! There’s no doubt that jewel tones suit me, but that one particularly struck me and I was surprised as I like it but never considered that it would suit. I don’t think you’d see it a lot in the shops to be honest.
I love your content and I know YT videos need to be financed but it'd be better if sponsors really had something to do with the content of the channel :/ The add felt very random
How can I book a color analysis with you?
Hi Keyla, thanks for your comment! You can find our booking page at the following link: colouranalysis.au/book-a-session/
How much does hair color matter? I am so unsure about my hair color since I always felt it was blond but now it seems to be dark blond which sometimes looks ashy and other times more yellow or reddish. As a child I had more golden hair. I've always felt I have cool undertone and blush very easily as well as fit better with silver in my opinion. I think I am a summer but happen to wear more winter colors in the winter and summer colors in the summer haha. I still have warm undertoned clothing but I don't think it suits me as well. It almost looks separate rather than a part of me if that makes sense. Is it possible to have cool undertone and warm hair?
Watch the video where Gulia does her boyfriend's mom's colors. She has cool gray hair with otherwise very warm undertone coloring (gray hair causes this often). It is a great video at addressing issues of hair color competing with skin (skin undertones win y'all) and what solutions are possible.
@MaryYoungblood-xy8vg thank you so much for the suggestion! Will watch right now!
summers can still have some gold in their hair.
@@SueRosalie ah cool!
@SueRosalie especially if they are transitioning from a color to gray. Very common in the light and soft palettes (spring and autumn flows).
I saw a video the other day addressing the crossover of light/deep and bright/soft on opposite sides of warm cool. They explained it this way. Yellow is at full saturation at a light value. Red at medium value and blue at deep value. As such warm colors are going to be brightest when light to medium in value. Thus spring has the brighter colors. As soon as you start toning (adding gray to soften) or shading (adding black to darken) colors soften as they get darker and desaturate thus autumn has the deep end soft colors. It is vice versa on the cool side because blue is much darker at full saturation. That means greens. blues, and violets are going to be medium to deep in value at full saturation. Thus winters get deep and bright. When I tone or tint (add white to lighten) my colors get lighter and softer. Thus summers are light and soft.
This is brilliant!
That's a very good and logical explanation. Thank you so much for sharing!
Very nice. I always wonder about the relationship between value and the seasons because it's never really explained, but after watching so many videos I started suspecting the value was a somewhat ineherent quality of warm/cool colors, example: the more intense and warmer a color is, the lighter it's gonna get. Your comment is basically a thorough explanation of this concept.
Care to say what's the video you watched? Thank you
@MaryYoungblood-xy8vg It's only partly true. Technically you don't get Autumn colors by adding black, as that is for Winters, you add a bit of their complementary ( opposite) color to desaturate them. And Summer shades get white AND black added to them (ie grey), so they are both deepened and lightened at the same time.
@kalashnikova_ it sounds brilliant but it's been dumbed down so much its only half true. There's a lot more to it see my comment
Such a great video!...let's all sing together, 'Undertone and Intensity!"
So professional, and so fun! You are both great! No. No, no, the color police see Guillia wearing gold!!! And Allesandra has some silver on her blouse and silver buttons!!
I laughed so hard at that point!
Thank you for mentioning summer soft wearing silver and gold! When I tried to figure out my palette, the jewellery test was a fail 😅
I am a soft autumn and lately love to wear baby blue, which is not really in my palette. I just pick a dirtier baby blue and pair it with brown hair bands and earrings and soft makeup. That’s how I make colours wearable that I love. I do the same with lilac all the time, I actually wear a lot of summer colours and just make them wearable with accessories.
Me too :)
Yes, the royal blue looks wonderful on Giulia.
I cannot wait to have mine done - my appointment is a way off and I am so much waiting for it! I have had my colours done twice previously and I have had very opposite results based on assessment of my undertone which is very pale olive. I have been assessed as warm in one and cool in another… I cannot wait to see what your analysis brings. This was really helpful.
Come back and let us know in this comment ❤
I love that blue Giulia. 🙂
Saaaaame! She was glowing!

@@marcusboyes943 and you look great!!
@@βιαχ Thank you 🙂
I have just received your colour analysis and am very pleased with it. Very thoroughly done, I would highly recommend the online analysis with you. I reorganised my wardrobe and have noted all the new colours I can add to it. I am also wondering if I can give a new life to some of my clothes by dyeing them. Can clothes be dyed across the warm/cool barriers? In my case, I would love to dye my cream and mustard silks into cooler colours.
Dear Rohini, we're so glad you're happy with your experience doing a colour analysis with us online ❤Dying clothes is definitely a good idea to make an item you love the perfect colour. In general, it is easier to dye something light into something darker. Deep violet, deep berry, navy blue, night blue or even black can be good options for you in this regard. This is Giulia now writing: I recently dyed a beige linen jacket into a berry colour and the result is great, it feels like I have a brand new jacket! However, it is always very important to follow the instructions of the dye brand! We hope this helps x
Hi, could you talk a bit more about your online offer - how precise can you be basing the analysis of photos alone rather then seeing someone in person. I had my colours done by 4 people (3 in person and 1 online ) and each came back with a different season
Thanks I really have enjoyed reviewing my wardrobe with my true spring results. I appreciate these Q&A . The green eyed question was a light bulb moment- my eyes are green I have struggled with green over the years as I often will get gifted something green. Case in point a green sweater I received this Christmas-a very cool green. I just couldn’t bring myself to wear other than once to please the giver. It’s a great sweater but not my green and that cool of a green really makes me look ill as a true Spring
I own a gorgeous spring palette sweater, but it overpowers me completely. I just wear it wrapped over my shoulders for a pop of color. That way it's far away from my face and I can still enjoy wearing it. If yours isn't a heavy knit wool, you might be able to take it into the warm season that way.
Teal and apricot also popular bridesmaids colours, I'm not sure though that the apricot thing is true but like you say, teal is definitely one
A few of these questions actually got addressed during my session with Alessandra. My partner was analysed as a True Spring because we couldn’t determine his dominant trait, Bright Spring was a bit too intense, Light Spring was good, and Warm Spring was too soft. So you would think that Summer Light would have had some usable colours, but it really didn’t. We concluded that he was probably a True Spring when he was younger and has lost some intensity with age.
I was analysed as Bright Winter, which also made so much sense because I shared a lot of Bright Spring colours. All those low intensity warm colours I had been buying in the last few years are my worst enemy apparently 😂😂
So many people get confused by overtone and undertone. Particuarly because in makeup the tone of the foundation is referred to as the undertone. Also, people think that if they need a cool makeup tone they are cool in colour analysis. Wrong! I have a warm undertone - light spring - but my complexion colour - overtone- is cool, and I need porcelain pink tones. So warm tone makeup in blush, lipsticks and eyeshadow but cool tone in foundation, concealer and powder.
yes foundation has to match overtone but eye, blush and lip colour has to match undertone
