After years of trying to figure out my season I’ve finally realized I am a light cool olive. I recently noticed that some greens make me look green, and just as you say the contrasting colors look very flattering.
Wonderful!
This is a very gratifying video! I commented about this exact thing on several of your videos in the past. Personally, as a light olive with yellow-brown eyes and natural warm red in my medium brown hair, I find that the universal colors and the colors just on either side of them go well for me. I can go slightly warm or slightly cool, but not too cool or too warm. It would be cool if you made a video of a light olive showing the universal colors and ones just to the left and right of them. Another cool video idea is to put two light olives side-by-side, one with cooler hair and eye colors and the other with warmer hair and eye colors.
That's really interesting to me, because I've been wondering for a while about people who are close to the centre line, who can perhaps wear some cool or some warm, but not cold or hot, if that makes sense. I'm not one of them, I'm definitely cool, but the idea is an important one.
@@AlexLouiseWest Yep! I kind of found through experimentation that the universal colors are the only ones that really “work” for me, and tones just to the right and left of them. Another thing I’ve found is that the only colors that look REALLY amazing (as in, they get me compliments from other people) are reds and purples. I believe it has to do with being opposite to green/yellow? I also get compliments on Royal Blue (a universal blue shade). I kinda wish Jen would use me in one of her UA-cam videos LOL - not because I especially want to be there but because I am an “oddball” who doesn’t fit solidly into any color type because I have olive (cool) very fair skin and warm-toned hair and eyes. But this video definitely comes the closest to me!! The model doesn’t look great in very cool or very warm tones…Jen was focused on putting her in a specific type but I suspect she’s like me and would look lovely in anything that’s near the “universal” line!!!
Great idea!!
@@sovrappensiero1 same!!!
*Shouting* "we are here! we are here!"
OH! This one suits me even better than the video with the lady with gray hair and blue eyes you did after this one which I saw before this one. I have the coloring of this lady but my hair looks more like the lady in the video after this. To say I am thrilled is an understatement. ❤️ Now I can feel confident to buy the color guides and fans. I'm so excited!!!!
Yes yes yesssss!!!! Almost exactly this has been my problem and the video confirms what I’d thought! I am so obviously yellow/green but look super weird in warm colors but not in cool light yellow!
Yay, feels so good to finally see that some else is cool colored but looks yellow too :D
Glad I could help!
Ooh this is exactly me, and my issue, thank you!!☺️
You're so welcome!
Great video jen! thank you for helping us understand more🖤 would you mind doing someone that has more of a tan skin with dark brown eyes and hair but is cool tone?
Thank you, this is another excellent video. The work you do is so detailed.
Due to the high quality information which you so kindly provide free of charge, I have a better understanding of my own colouring, but videos like this one make me realise how complex it is to do it for someone else.
Wow, thank you!
Great video highlighting the level of skill needed to do colour analysis . Thanks Jen
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you very much for your videos! Finally someone is able to explain colors without creating more confusion with terminology. I have seen several people trying, but yours is the very best!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️
You're very welcome!
Ty!
This has been a life-long struggle for me as a pale olive with strong yellow undertones (although i am high contrast).
Funny, how i naturally was drawn to purples, while every salesperson and friend tried to put me in warm colors and soft colors 😫😝
I will definitely try the true red, blue, blueish pink, true yellow, purple. Ty
Same here. High contrast and paler olive skin tone. Sometimes i feel like an alien 🙈
You sound like me. You're probably a winter, which tonally is cool, bright, and deep.
I'm olive!!! Lol it took a lot of digging but was verified in person. I'm cool soft/med, deep. But soooo many people think I'm warm at first. TY!!! I really appreciate that your system works for POC!
Thanks for sharing!!
I am a cool olive, winter. I was analyzed my Merriam Style and I was shocked to find out I was olive. I knew I had a unique coloring, Merriam nailed it with foundation recommendation. I mix cool tone foundation with green color corrector and its a perfect match.🥰
Hey , a dark winter here.can you please tell me which foundation do you use I have pale yellow skin with cool undertone.
So, it looks like olive skintone sometimes can look best in the brighter color pallette without having to have really bright eyes or hair because they need a unique pallette, exciting and interesting, I'm going to try this since I'm similar and I don't look bad in a lot of colors but not great so.. yes!
Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank
You are very welcome
This was very informative. I also have light olive skin which turns out to be a cool undertone with a warm yellow overtone. Warm colors have always looked dreadful on me; this was confirmed when I had a seasonal color analysis last year and turned out to be a mix of sultry and jewel winter, sitting at the brightest and coolest end of the winter palette.
May I ask your hair and eye color?
This woman has skin so like mine it’s uncanny. Finding out about olive skin last year was a revelation. I was draped as a Warm/Clear/Light Spring decades ago and it never felt right (I ended up wearing only the blue colours in the palette). I already have a lot of yellow in my overtone and adding warm colours is like an overdose. I was draped again last year in the UK and am Cool/Clear/Light (so Cool dominant rather than Bright dominant as is this woman) and I have found my true home. Someone on FB recently told me that people with olive skin are always warm. This is simply not true.
And plenty of people say that olive cannot be warm. There is so much confusion with this colour type.
@@ldavies3280 Yes you're right about the confusion! I must have watched every video and read every blog on it trying to understand, but one think I know is that whilst I appear golden on the outside I am most definitely blue on the inside 🤣
I'm in a similar predicament with rarer coloring. I've got pale, slightly warm olive skin of Asian descent.
A warm red hair color looks harmonious on me rather than my natural warm black. If I wear any eyeshadow that has any hint of grey in it, I look dead and tired. It's hard finding clothes and colors. A mid-tone yellow and shades of red tend to work, although I recently am embracing lime greens. Not because they're flattering on me -- but because I'm tired of having to neutralize my olive, I'm leaning in and rocking it by emphasizing it.
The yellow overtone but being olive; that’s me too. Luckily I’ve had a colour analysis done in the eighties and although I looked like a spring I turned out to be a clear winter with some but’s: I shouldn’t wear black or the very light icy pastels and light grey near my face or on their own. As long as colours are bright and cool I know they will make me look my best.
I have a very pale olive skin with what I believe cool undertone and yellow overtone. I also have medium ashy hair and amber eyes that look usually darker but very light ambery in the sunlight.
Before I think about my olive skin, I had settled for BCM (or dark cause my eyebrows are darker than my hair) and when I took into consideration the green hue of my skin, I was in doubt.
Now I think that I will stick to BCM and just avoid the very bright colours or go sometimes for the more saturated colours of the SCM.
The conclusion is that cooler colours suit me more but neither too soft nor too bright and then play between medium and darker.
My only wondering is about corals in makeup that seem to suit me very well and I guess they are warm 🤔
Maybe that's just me who feels they suit me while they actually don't 🤔🤷♀️
I'm the same with skin, dark ashy blond and bright dark blue eyes. And coral is my go to for make up as well, I thought it was a super warm color as well but then I realized coral is a mix or magenta or pink and yellow. So it's not actually all that warm but in between. It's just a warmer shade of pink, it seems to match our overtones perfectly. The red I see in my skin looks closest to coral.
Yes! This is me. I look better with blue based lipstick and warm based eyeshadow. Cool tone foundation makes me look dead, literally. Confusing as heck. I look best in some colors from bright warm and awful in some.
As a warm-olive, I can say that any colors that counteract the green in my skin look great: reds, burgundy, magenta, coral, peach, cream. I actually think the apricot would have looked good on her without that dark lipstick. Mustard looks horrible on me. However, sage green looks amazing---maybe because it almost looks cool? And sometimes I can wear a very specific shade of light emerald green--it almost makes my skin look golden by comparison. I also like teal blue or hunter green (again, both are bluer shades of green).
Dusty lavender makes me look sickly, but warm blush-pink looks gorgeous! This is why I feel like I can wear certain colors from every category, and certain specific ones look horrendous. I also like warm-turquoise...again I think the blue helps make my yellow-olive skin look more neutral. And...I look great in black!! Even though I'm not a winter. My skin looks neutral in black and white, though I like cream and dark gray too.
Rust is pretty good (terracotta red is better), copper-gold is great, but if it goes too camel/yellow-brown then it's not great.
there are no warm olives. Mustard etc looks bad on you because olive skin is always winter.
Perhaps it’s different in certain color analysis circles, but in the cosmetics/skincare world, there is definitely a distinction between warm olive and cool olive. I definitely have both green and strong yellow undertones. So I wear warm foundation (makeup). Warm olive looks golden, whereas cool olive looks grayer (less yellow).
You just described my color preferences perfectly!
What does it mean if a bright neon pink makes your skin look more tan? Does that mean it's not the right colors ? Not sure if you suppose to look colorful or dull in face to have the right color ?
I have the same colouring. Also struggling.
I have medium olive skin with blue eyes with gold in them, does that make me warm?
Not necessarily. That isn't really enough info for me to say.
I was VIP but could no longer afford it however I was never offered a free colour analysis when I was a member?
The membership is now available as an annual membership. When you subscribe for an annual membership you can be added to a vip color analysis call.
@@YourColorStyle Is it not available as a monthly subscription any more?
@@lissacroft919 it is now structured as a full year curriculum with an online color analysis included.
Can dark skin people be every season typ ?
Yes
@@tuxedoneko9837 interesting thx a lot
I'm not sure I understand your question. Your Color Style isn't seasonal color analysis. In Your Color Style, if you have deep features like dark hair, eyes or skin, you would be type DEEP. After that you could be Bright and Warm, Soft and Warm, Bright and Cool or Soft and Cool
@@YourColorStyle I get what you mean thank you a lot
If you have darker coloring, you are automatically deep. That would mean either you're an autumn (warm undertones) or winter (cool undertones). I have never seen a person of color analyzed as a spring or summer, which are the light (instead of deep) seasons but there might be some rare exceptions.
Olive skin is an overtone not an undertone. Olive skin has a cool undertone and is always Winter. For makeup, foundation has to match with the olive overtone but all your other makeup has to go with the cool undertones, the winter palette.
She is not olive.
She doesn't even look like an olive anyway. Sallow skin is not olive. Olive has green overtone, hence why it's called olive. The next darkest skin tone after fair is not always olive, it's just light. She looks to me like a soft summer.
This lady's hair is just all messed up.
That is really unkind.
@@YourColorStyle No, all she needs to do is get it colored and cut.
