Would love to see a follow up video Hannah where you compare your existing wardrobe to the colour chart you’ve now got! Would be interesting to see it working in practice with actual clothes!
Yes! and the eventual text of "help help help" to Sian - omg
Was just about to comment this!!
My thoughts too!
Me too! I would love this.
Me too! ❤
I like the little hints she gives - that you can choose the jewelery, or make up to make most of your skin, and then have a jacket, or a skirt in whatever colour you like. And that it's not so much about colours themself, but the shades.
The UA-camr called Justine has amazing videos about skin tones, and making capsule wardrobes in either cool, or warm, or very bright, fun colours with nice hints.
Yes, Justine Leconte, love her!
Ą
Anyone else remember in Sherlock when Mrs. Hudson says “She taught yer to do yer colours. Apparently, I should never wear cerise - drains me.”? 😄
I just saw others share their memories of color analysis references here and thought I’d share mine.
This reminds me so much of the scene in Bridget Jones' Diary when Bridget's mum says she should "get her colours done" and - having absolutely no idea what it meant - I eventually came to the conclusion that it meant getting her hair dyed 😂
omg I hadn't thought about what that meant before!
@@morehannah I know! It all makes sense now. Also having now watched until the end - I would definitely be up for watching a clothes dying video if you attempt it :D
@@leirem0 but getting the right shade would be mega hard!
In the book she does end up letting her mum take her to have her colours done. While the colours are being held up to her face, Bridget and her mum have the most heart to heart conversation of all their interactions in the book. It's one of my favourite scenes
This was fun but I wish there had been a Hannah-only section at the end giving a wrap up of the experience and her thoughts.
2 things I noticed:
1 - I think I'm the complete opposite colours to you.
2 - your colours very closely matched the ones that you picked for Rowan in the baby clothes rental video that you thought really suited him.
maybe Rowan is a spring too!? 😅
@@morehannah maybe you should try the under the chin test on him too? 😆
@@hannahk1306 I would love if she did Dan and Rowan's colors too, but I get she's not going to show Rowan's face on camera so that's out, and she could only do Dan if he wanted to, so ... but I am so curious if they're all springs or if there's a color mixture there. Like if Dan is cool, is that why she's having trouble pulling her bedroom colors together? This is all so interesting!
@@xzonia1 If she doesn't want to show Rowan's face on camera, she probably wants to avoid filiming him at all, but it would be funny if she edited emojis and other fun pictures over his face--especially if those pictures did not, in fact, match what they were saying about the colors! However, that sounds like a lot more work for her.
I had my colors done in high school and I swear it changed my entire life! I went from wearing really bright, neon and jewel-toned colors to dressing as a soft autumn a.k.a. earth tones and neutrals and my skin looked healthier, my hair color warmer, etc. I felt so much more confident in my appearance and also knowing what to look for when shopping.
I also love the idea that everyone can wear every color so long as it's the right shade!! I now can't stop pulling things out of my closet, running around my house to try to find the best natural light, and holding things up to my face 😆
It turns out that I either have no items in a particular color (orange and yellow, because I was always told that I "couldn't" wear them) or 5 items in completely different shades (blue, red, and purple).
I love how she was letting you comment on how it looked first before pointing things out. I could totally see how the color bounces off of your skin or makes you look more grey. Would love to try this for myself!
Yes! Students get more engaged in the learning process when you allow them to have input.
As a colourblind person, I really have no idea what is going on but it's entertaining
That Pink and orange combo is like the dress taylor swift wore to the 2016 Grammys. It’s so striking on you! 💖🧡
It's insane how much the different shades change your face! Didn't think I'd find this so interesting
My mum actually has a very old copy of a book called "Colour me Beautiful" which I think was the book which originally proposed the colour analysis in 4 seasons. One of the things in that book is that most people are instinctively drawn to the colours that suit them best. I don't know how common that actually is but I do think it applies to some people.
The thing that you said about everyone being able to wear purple is actually in the Colour me Beautiful book. There are a few colours (teal blue and a sort of medium brightness purple) which are in between the seasons, neither warm nor cool, a little bit muted but not too muted, and they look okay on pretty much anyone.
I always assumed this too, that people are drawn to the colours that suit them best, but it has turned out not to be true for me at all! I spent years assuming I was a winter and gravitating towards those colours, only to realise with some consternation that I am a spring. The colours that look best on me and make me really vibrant are not colours I would have reached for in a million years. Maybe because I was gothic/alternative as a teen, so those winter colours served me well for creating an edgy look.
This was true for me. I was drawn toward my best colors. I don't know what I would have done if I had had about result.
My mom's a summer and I'm a spring. When I was growing up she'd absolutely nail the styles I like but would ask me to try them on in summer colors. We didn't understand then why I just didn't like them...
@@ihay472 me too. I was drawn to my best colors (red, yellow, orange). I was also drawn to pinks but have now found out that they're too cool for me. I won't throw them away - will still wear them sometimes but with more makeup on. I now like olive green (which I hated), but have discovered that it looks good on me since I'm an autumn.
@SomeoneBeginingWithI Teal looks horrible on me though it's always too dull and muted and most purples aren't great too. I'm a Spring.
I did actually think you’d be Spring! But not until she showed the color swatch cards - right away I noticed all those vivid brights you love to wear; more so than in the Autumn palette
Colour theory was one of the most interesting and fundamental things I learned during my degree in illustration!
same for me in my photography degree!
You should try a 16 colour season analysis as well! It’ll break down your season even more. Hence maybe why that one spring colour you weren’t a fan of on your skin. There’s light spring (summer spring), warm spring (autumn spring), true spring (spring spring) and clear spring (winter spring).
Those names in brackets are wrong and just confusing for people. You can see the correct colour wheel clearly in these videos: www.youtube.com/@colouranalysis_studio
@@SueRosalie there’s only so much you can say in a comment. I really like Carol Brailey’s videos personally. She breaks it down very easy to understand.
I’ve seen their videos and they are great but don’t necessarily teach you to understand and it’s personally difficult for me to see in the videos the effect the colour is having.
@@tamarathorsen I agree. I like Carol Brailey's vids too and yes she uses the 16 season system. In that system, there are the in-between seasons aside from the ones in the 12 seasons. The in-between seasons are true bright (BW + BSp), True Light (LSp + LSu), True Muted (SSu + SA), True Dark (DA + DW). I think it makes sense because some ppl can wear colors in the 2 neighbouring palettes. I think there's also True Warm (Sp + A) and True Cool (W + Su). So 18 seasons(?) I've seen her online analysis of her clients and I agree with her findings.
@@kitty_s23456 I asked her once is it more like 20? If I understood her correctly, I think she was basically saying even though it’s called that we’re a wide spectrum of colours and can’t really limit it. For now, these are the names we have and that may change one day. She definitely didn’t say it like that but that was my understanding
@@tamarathorsen yes Carol's videos are quite good. I would like to see her dressed a little better and more polished, with makeup in her colours.
I’ve had colour analysis and it completely changed my view of what suits me! I had always been drawn to warm colours and it turns out I’m a winter. I can really see how true that is. I can see now that I definitely have cool skin, eyes and hair… BUT I’m a flusher! So the only bit in this video I can’t come to terms with is that warm-toned people flush and cool-toned people don’t.. that just feels so contradictory to me.
Yeah I don’t think that bit’s true lol
I was really curious what she meant by that because don't ALL people flush? I've never met someone who doesn't get flushed under the right circumstances.
@@xzonia1 I guess you've never met anyone with a darker skin stone
@@favegirl13 I've met plenty, and they flush too. It might be harder to recognize on some than others, but their faces do change visibly, becoming even darker than normal for them..
@@favegirl13cool and warm tones exist in even the darkest skin, which is why “warm tones flush/freckle, cool tones don’t” is not real
I'm a winter with silver jewelry... Knowing your colors not only makes a huge difference in the way you look, it makes a difference in the way you feel.
it means you can easily have a capsule and or mix and match wardrobe and you not only save money you save time because most things go together.
When she described the difference between warm and cool skin as “stuff happening to your skin” I immediately lost confidence in her. Also, freckles, flushing and tanning aren’t synonymous; I have freckles and flush but it’s hard for me to tan (for reference I have cool toned skin).
Right ? If it was that easy, we wouldn't need to pay someone to do this...
I agree. I also disagree with what she said about white making a color cool and red making it warm. I've always heard that blue is cool and yellow is warm 🤔
I agree, being able to tan isn't linked to undertones
She also described split-complementary differently from how I’ve always heard it. In my art and color theory courses, it was a 3-color palette, not two. Instead of a color and its opposite, say violet and yellow, it was described as a color and the two colors adjacent to its opposite. So, continuing with violet, it would be violet, yellow-orange, and yellow-green. Or, yellow, blue-violet, and red-violet.
Getting my colours done really helped me so much. Every time I got dressed I felt horrible about myself and drab but couldn’t figure out why. I thought being pale and blonde I couldn’t wear colours and wore white black beige and muted dusty colours. Turns out I’m a light summer and was wearing all the wrong colours 😂
Obviously if you love wearing colours that don’t necessarily suit you it doesn’t matter if they make you feel good. For me wearing colours I know suit me helps me feel better.
Interesting that she says red is the warmest colour because of its wavelength, but in colour theory red is often regarded as a neutral, and that cool vs warm come from a blue-based or yellow-based undertone respectively. So far she seems to be limiting her approach to just the four seasons instead of implementing the flows as well, but I still have a while to watch
so true! the only color expert I found that makes logically sense is @merriamstyle love her videos, this one is on the color red ua-cam.com/video/T3fE_tp1o7c/v-deo.html
@@evfie3 I have mixed feelings about her, she doesn't make too much logical sense to me but seems quite condescending to practitioners of other systems
some of the things she says are such bull as well - nothing "activates the left part of your brain"
it is possible to have yellow undertones and be cool toned though. it's quite common in east asians and middle easterns
@@user-iw4yl7fp9p hm I think @merriamstyle explains it in some of her videos, she describes the misinterpretation of olive skin tones
I love the fashion content, this was really interesting and fun! You should totally do a video showing what you already own in your wardrobe that is the spring colour palette :)
This makes me feel more... sane? Like a relief from self-gaslighting. When I wear bright white I look SO DEAD but I haven't known why. Now I'm thinking it's because I must be "warm"! It's not that my skin is off, I'm just not "honoring" it's tones...
I hope to see a future closet video where you analyze how your pieces do or do not fit into your spring palette!
I figured this was coming! I do think that colors are a really cool thing but everyone should wear the colors that make them feel good and happy!
So true! I think this principle overrides even the "you can wear any colour, so long it's the right shade" advice. Getting to know your season is so helpful and so much fun, but the most important is to feel good about yourself. If this is achieved by a colour that's not "officially" on your palette, oh well - it definitely shouldn't stop you from wearing it.
The ones that suit me are the ones that make me happy. The who people want to wear whatever they want probably won’t invest in a colour analysis.
Ooh I loved this so much ❤️ I really enjoyed it. I've watched a few of these and this is the best one! Your analyst seemed lovely as well and was lovely to see you both get on so well.
I've been trying to figure out my season for ages, I think I'm either a spring or summer. I felt like your analyst gave really good tips so I found the video really helpful.
I'd love to be an autumn too but really don't think I am🤣
I would be very leary since she didn't start out with whites and darks vs color
yes you have to start with the cool white versus the warm white, with hair covered. Then you go to the cool/warm green, then the cool/warm red; and then when you've got 3 hits you confirm with the metals. You then have to go through systematic analysis to determine intensity and level of lightness/darkness and possible sub groups. This is the third analyst I've seen on the internet get it horribly wrong and so obvious to people with some training. This woman is one of the autumns, not spring. The analyst failed to understand the dominant features of each of the seasons and sub groups.
@@SueRosalie she is definately an autumn and definately NOT a spring. There is a reason she is drawn towards those autumn shades, I fell most are drawn towards their natural palette. I think she wasted time and money with this Sian person who clearly doesn't know how to color match properly.
This was such a cool and interesting video! I’d love a follow up looking at your wardrobe to see how this works for you in practice
I thought you'd be spring but just based on the colours that I've seen you in in other videos. So fun to see!
I reckon I would be an autumn as a brown, south Chinese person. Dark for an East Asian, very yellow and warm skin tone, and all of the things happen to my face (little bit of freckling, blushing, flushing, etc.)
I got my colours done in the end of 2017. My friend bought it for me as a prezzie and she came with me, was a great day!
Turns out I'm an Vibrant Autumn Leaf 😅 and can wear the brighter colours of autumn. Since having it done I wouldn't say it's reduced my spending but it has made me pick colours more carefully and build a palette that really works 😁💕
I loved this video! I've seen a lot of the color analysis videos but they've all been very expert talking only. This one felt so warm and cozy. I definitely learned some things too!
I would absolutely love seeing a video of you dying your clothes in different colors! I've used rit dye once and it is very easy to use :)
This has been super informative. The consultant is so knowledgeable and fun. Its been the most concise and easy to follow colour video I've seen!
I've only had an online consultation done which told me I was a light spring. This has been a hard adjustment for me as someone who likes to wear black and jewel tones. But with the few bright pastel things I did own I could think back and remember getting compliments when I did wear them. It made more sense
Can’t wait to see you put some outfits together from your closet!
I’m a spring too. Would love to see you now review your wardrobe and makes some outfits and swaps/changes to fav pieces that aren’t in your season
Wow this video was fantastic!!! She’s so informative and your personalities were very complementary 😊
Hi, had my colours done last year - autumn. Just about to have my style analysis done and very excited! Enjoy your spring colours x
This was such a great ep about color and the seasons! I got my colors done in the 80’s and I have just gotten interested in the topic again and have been told that I’m an Autumn! Hmmm, we’ll see! Have fun with your new colors.
I’ve been DEEP in a colour analysis obsession for a while now and I’m so happy you got yours done!!! I’m saving money at the moment but hopefully soon I’ll be able to get mine done. I’m fairly sure I’m either a true spring or a true autumn
I’m always trying to analyze mine and I seriously have no idea 😂. I don’t know why it’s so hard for me except my hair color is neutral and I have cool skin but with freckles.
Do you look better in light to medium clear colors (Spring), or do you prefer muddy dark colors (Autumn)? Does Olive Green look good on you? (Fall color)
@@cheryl-lynnmehring8606 I prefer autumn colours, and I think olive green looks good on me. However I’ve been told that olive green brings out “redness” in my skin so I don’t know if I just think it those colours good on me because I like them, if you know what I mean? Hannah wore mostly autumn colours because she likes them before finding out that they don’t 100% suit her!
Update: I’m a Spring! I went with House of Colour and got analysed as a Blue Spring, and not gonna lie I’m disappointed I’m not an autumn or a true/warm/golden Spring. I don’t really like bright blues!
@@honorcollins6962what is a blue spring?
I had always think that you would look better in spring tones, not that you don't look good before, but you shine in a full balance, and I think thats very importante, I mean she didn't take out the oranges and yellow away from you just give you the ones that make shine and I love it, personally think that even though everyone can wear what they want it does make an impact when it is the wrong color, I mean some probably like colors that make them look sick or tried and people would ask about that even if their happy and healty.
I’ve watched you for years and was my favourite ever video!! So good I would look forward to any follow up content you do!
I've watched a bunch of videos about how to know your color season, but I've never watched a session actually happen and it was sooooo cool and useful to see! I think I'm a deep winter but now I'm scared to revisit it with the new info I've learned here 😅
Very interesting 😊 I still haven’t done my colour analysis, but there a jacket I have that I have been consistently complimented on how the colour suited me (no joke, every single time I wear it someone different mentions it out of the blue), so it really makes me want to do a full one to discover all my best colours!
Hannah is queen of getting me to watch shit I avoid. Always telling UA-cam not to recommend me those color videos. This was interesting though. A pleasant surprise.
Loved this! I did it a few years ago and I'm a bright winter, so a vibrant cool colours closer to spring than autumn vibes, and suit black, plus both gold and silver jewellery. Crossover with some of your bright colours like the scary lego green haha!
Ohh I love that you've gone to a professional! Great video, I love seeing the process. I've been kinda obsessing about colour analysis the last few months and have been trying to figure it out myself, but it's very difficult to look at yourself objectively and without the right drapes and stuff. The only thing I've established so far is that I am not one of the people that black looks good on, even though I thought it did for so long. But I really wanna go to a professional, especially after this video so might start looking for one. Also, I would've guessed you're a warm season, but other than that, no clue.
Growing up, my friends would tell me they didn't wear black because they found it depressing, but they often encouraged me to wear it because they said it looked so good on me, so I think I'm one of the 10% that black suits. I do get a lot of wows! when I wear black (and people ask me if I'm ill when I wear white, lol).
This was delightful - I want to get my colours done now :D
I LOVE colour-analysis videos!
Loved seeing the metallics! I think they are really telling. I also love the drapes from Italian Image Institute that also have a metallic blue and metallic copper! Glad you had such a fun and interesting experience 😊
So interesting that summer is a cool toned season!
I have a friend who I‘m CONVINCED is a soft summer: She has ashy blonde hair and cool blue eyes, her colors are extremely muted and blend into each other (low contrast), she‘s generally very light and everyone agrees that she absolutely cannot pull off gold. It MUST be silver! But she tans like crazy! But it makes her look more „beige“ than golden. I, on the other hand, am a true spring and I do not tan at all barely have any freckles. I do flush easily though
ability to tan has NOTHING to do with your skin undertone, it's just your Fitzpatrick Phototype. Any of the phototypes (they are 1 to 5) can be any season. You are likely correct that your friend is a soft summer. Study here. The Italian system is accurate and pretty foolproof. www.youtube.com/@colouranalysis_studio/featured
@@SueRosalie Thanks! That’s what I thought, I was really confused when she said that thing about tanning
This video was so fun! I now really want to do this!
i really enjoyed hearing more about colour analysis and how it works! i’ve been reading up on it for a few months here and there. i’m 95% sure i’m a cool summer but would be super interesting to have an ~expert opinion~
I had a hunch you were going to be a spring because I think you’ve looked the best in bright and warm colours!
I am a summer myself. I was very confused about my season for a long time as my skin is rather neutral, and has typed myself as a lighter type of spring. But when I was typed professionally as a summer that made a lot of sense with the colours that just made my skin glow. I was surprised but also not really. Now I find choosing colours and clothes more logical as I can look at a colour and see why it will or won’t suit me. It has also opened more doors to colours and shades I didn’t really consider before.
Loved it!
I haven't done a professional analysis. But from doing my own research I think I'm a bright winter.
Yes I have red in my face and freckles. But I look heinous in warm toned colours. And I never knew why. And its very hard because warm tones tend to be more fashionable.
If I wear a mustard I immediately turn green. Same with orange. And most browns look awful.
Black and jewel tones really suit me. And cool greys. Since I figured this out it made shopping and choosing clothes so much easier. I know instantly that a colour will or won't work.
I think this is so cool and interesting! Obviously these are just guidelines and anyone can wear whatever color and shade they want but it is really interesting to see how different tones really do make you look different!
I agree. It means you can exert more control over how you want to present yourself. The tools to express yourself, they’re not rules.
I’m loving learning all this color analysis stuff. I am a color fanatic, I love painting and color theory and all that. So this is another thing to keep me up at night. I’ve been thinking I’m a fall, but the more I wear it, the more I think I might be spring.
I would love to see you put together outfits based on this colour revelation!
Hm not sure if she's saying the right thing in terms of warm vs cool skin tone. I have always thought of pink undertones as being cool toned - which is the skin tone that flushes and gets freckles. Whereas warm skin tones tan. But I haven't finished the video yet so we'll see..
she's wrong about a lot of things and made a mess of the whole thing, frankly. Freckles have nothing to do with skin undertones. Freckles are sun damage and are determined by your Fitzpatrick skin Phototype. Any colour season can have Fitzpatrick types I and II. Ruddiness and flushing are irrelevant to your undertone too.
Spring is definitely best if you're hoping for autumn and don't get it. Off to watch your thrifting video. Really enjoyed that Sian let the whole draping be posted!
That was super interesting. My wardrobe is definitely winter, I wonder if that's the right pallette for me!
weird, I've never heard that description of warm vs cool. my rosacea doesn't really change my cool undertone
That was brilliant! I would love to know my colours, I wear a lot of black and mustard which I love but doesn’t always love me. I have recently discovered warm pink makes my skin come alive and I’m loving it, totally different from what I usually wear.
Colour theory is fascinating. I am an artist, anc the things I’ve learned can be applied to so many areas of life. We are visual creatures 🥰
The “Spring” colour palette makes me drool. I love every one of those colours to an absurd degree.
Loved this, it was so interesting!!
Such a cool video! Also I just have to say, the color analysist is absolutely stunning 😳 She has such a cool vibe about her
Very interesting! I think I'm autumn or spring, but leaning more towards autumn.
I'm going to take this information and see if it's changing something for me!
Really loved this video, so fascinating!
Hi, I am a fall, and I was born in the fall. The right colors make such a difference to my mood.
Thank you so much that was so interesting ! After seing people do this with no explanation on instagram i wasn't convinced but now i am !
Thanks for sharing your experience Hannah, it was an interesting watch! Ngl while I get the idea from like a light and perception perspective, the idea you're Doing Clothing Wrong by wearing colours that make you happy has never sat well with me. Realised I'm prioritising more what I can see when I look down, whereas colour theory prioritises what I can see in a reflection/what others can see. Tbh I still think both are valid!
My mum has a very old copy of a book called Colour me Beautiful, which I think is what originally proposed the colour system in 4 seasons. The Colour Me Beautiful book talks about the importance of wearing colours you like to look at and feel happy wearing. It says that most people are naturally drawn to the colours of their season. I'm not sure how common that is, but I do think it applies to some people including Hannah, who was naturally drawn to orange and golden yellow.
Colour me Beautiful also talks about the importance of picking which clolours you like best from within your season's pallete, which best fit your personal style, and that some people are sort of in between seasons. For example some people are in between Spring and Autumn, and look best in warm colours which are slightly muted but not very muted. I think that applies to Hannah too. The book also gives the example of there being bright and soft/pastel colours in all 4 pallets. If you want to wear bright colours or if you want to wear pastels you can totally do that, and you /should/. You can find colours you love wearing that feel natural for you within your season's pallet.
I didn't like the aproach this particular stylist took, and it isn't necessary to take this aproach when using the Seasons system for colours. A different stylist could have worked with Hannah's preferences, rather than telling her that her preferences are "wrong" and that she has new rules that she needs to follow and is only allowed to break in particular ways.
One of the benifits of wearing clothes from withing a seasonal pallet is that you can combine them however you like and the colours will harmonise rather than clash. This can be very helpful if you want a capsule wardrobe, or if you want to only buy new clothes occasionally. If you only buy from within your season, all of your clothes can be worn in combination, so it reduces how often you'd need to buy a new thing to "go with" another new thing. This can be particularly useful for accessories like coats, bags and shoes, which you want to wear with a lot of different outfits. If you buy a coat from within your season's pallet, it will go with all your other clothes. This stylist's suggestion to buy a coat in a different season because you like the colour, or to wear colours from a different season below the waist, is setting people up to feel frustrated that their outfits don't work because the colours clash.
With the leather jacket exaple, if you already have a black leather jacket which you love and want to keep, then yes keep it, you don't have to replace it just becuase it's out of season. However if you want to buy a leather jacket now that you know your season, you can use your understanding of colour to choose one which will look better on you and harmonise with your other clothes. Black looks great on winters but can be too harsh for the other seasons. Grey, navy, and brown can also be used as neutrals if you want something that's less harsh than black. For Hannah I would recommend dark chocolate brown as a neutral because she is a very warm spring. I am also a spring but I lean more towards the clear side of spring. I use chocolate brown as a neutral sometimes, but mostly use navy blue and light grey. For a Summer, I would recommend a leather jacket in a dark grey or navy rather than black.
I've pegged myself as an autumn but now I'm having second thoughts 😂 I'm pretty sure that I have a warm undertone though. I used to have a pastel purple sweater and always thought it made me look very washed out so that was a big clue for me. I mostly wore reds and greens for a few years but I have been loving orange recently.
I learned about my seasonal coloring in HS. I'm a winter. All the colors that looked horrid on you look great on me, and all the colors that work best on you look terrible on me. I loved this video. I always had a hard time identifying springs! I don't think there are many. 💘
My sister-in-law, my daughter and I are springs. Everyone else in the family is a winter. We had our colors done years ago and they don't change with age or hair color. Hair should not be considered when determining skin undertones.
This is a brilliant video, amazing for others to see who haven’t done through the process. I had mine done last week and I’m a spring too. I couldn’t be happier I’d been dulling myself down for decades! I’ve got a few whites that can easily be made cream with a drop of yellow Dylon 🌈🌷💛🦋
Great video! You should film a wardrobe check with all your new tools & information😄
I'm probably one of the Autumns, DEFINITELY a warm season. I have been slowly getting rid of the worst-for-me coloured tops in my wardrobe (donation, or demotion to sleepwear). I have tried to buy only flattering colours, but it's so hard😭 It feels impossible to evaluate colours without a physical colour fan... should really invest in some.
I love bright greens and blues, so I use them a lot in home decor instead of my clothing, since they definitely don't suit my skin tone. That way I get to still enjoy them💚💙
Beautiful- I’m a spring too
This was really informative :)
@leenanorms video on CA brought me here, and I'm so glad I came! I loved your experience and the color science tidbits Sian gave throughout the analysis. 👏It confirmed my decision to book a CA session because I, like you, am wearing my natural face more and want my wardrobe to support, not detract from, that decision. I also want to be able to shop more confidently, and I feel like this will help me limit my options and make decision-making easier overall.
I loved watching this! Thank you ladies!! I would love to have my colour analysis done!!! I live in Nottingham... and hope to find a consultant soon!!
I wear every color I want to. Just because a color doesn't suit me, doesn't mean I don't love it on myself. Who cares if it technically suits me if I love it.
Yes of course, but it's really interesting to understand why a colour you love might wash you out and how to chose the right shade of a given colour. It's just a bit of fun! I mean based on this video I do *not* suit black, but I'm still gonna wear my 90% black wardrobe that I love.
I have found that the older I get, the worse I feel wearing colours that don't suit me, even if I like them. Most blues make me so drained and tired-looking that no matter how much I love the colour, I won't reach for it. It's easier to pull off the "wrong" colours if your skin is very smooth, no under-eye circles, etc.
I’m with Áine. When I was young I got away with anything, because when you’re young the freshness of your skin is more radiant than the wrong colour. Give it a couple of decades and you may change your mind.
@@nommh @Áine Órga same here. Looking better makes me feel better. When I was young I lived in black. It doesn’t suit me though and I won’t wear it now.
This was so fun. I could totally see the differences on camera.
So cool, would love to know where to purchase the fan swatches with the colours of each season and how to diagnose which colour I am?
I always thought I couldnt be a SD because I'm 5'2" and don't look like sofia vergara
but I'm built like mae west! This makes so much sense. Love your unique take on kibbe, it's so helpful and inspiring
I’m a warm spring and I loved all your colours ❤
hmmm.... looking at this I think I wear a spring-autumn hybrid wardrobe... but you can pry my silver jewellery out of my cold dead hands 🤣🤣
Actually LOVED this
Great video! I had a feeling you'd be a spring because I think many of us are naturally drawn to the colours that suit us. I'm the exact opposite of you though, I love blues and pinks but most yellows and all oranges look terrible on me (I'm a summer)
Loved this video!!
I'm fairly sure I'm a winter but would love to have the analysis done some time!
I had my colours done a few years ago. Was certain I’d be an autumn, as have always been drawn to deep, warm colours. Turns out I’m a winter, which really confused me for a while. Did quite a bit of research afterwards and I’ve come to the conclusion that I’ve got an olive skin tone, which tends to complicate matters slightly.
olive skin is Winter
@@SueRosalie olive skin often is neutral with a preference or which can be really tricky diffrent in summer and winter
It can be warm or cool. I've got cool undertones and the yellow on top. I can look awfully shallow in some warm tones. It's not the same for everyone. I think Audrey coyne the UA-camr does a good analysis of olive.
I had my colour analysis done last year, but using another method, the expanded seasonal method. This one divides each season in three different palettes, based on the main component each person has to their beauty. Mine was warm/true/pure autumn, which is the warmest of all 12 palettes (this was surprising because I always thought I would be some winter). Anyway, loved the video! It made me curious to know which one of the springs you would be in the expanded method!!
Yeah tbh I think that's a better system than just the 4 categories. The 4 seasons are a good starting point for talking about colour, but there's much more individual variation than just 4 categories.
I'm a spring, but for me the colours being clear is much more important than them being warm. I think for Hannah the colours being warm is the most important, and she actually looks best in colours that are slightly muted, not very muted or completely clear.
@@SomeoneBeginingWithI Yes, I totally agree. I would love to see a revisited colour analysis video someday. I bet she'd be a warm spring too. and it makes it easier for her to use autumn colors as well!
Sian is everything - more Sian vids please
So weird to me that Summer isn't warm toned. I would have swapped it around with spring for sure
I'm so happy for you, when I discovered color theory it changed my whole style,it's amazing. I'm also in the spring season , too bad I love black and more autumnal colors, so I had to change my preferance a little bit:)
are you sure you were analysed correctly because there are so many analysists on the internet getting it wrong and getting paid for it. Including the one in this video. The client is one of the autumns
@@SueRosalie I believe she is spring , but it's hard to tell from video in my opinion and Hanna is typed in person. As for me yes, I am bright spring, I tought I was dark autumn when I typed myself , but the colors didn't suit me so I had to start over and asked a professional ,she said I am bright not dark but that I came close with my color typing , so bright spring it is.
Really enjoyed this video 😁
love the analysts hair!!
Wow! I can see what you are talking about even through the camera lens. That's so cool! Edited. I got thegreen right!!
I had this done a few years ago. I turned out to be a mix of autumn and spring. I find I suit warm tones more, but not the super dark muddy ones. I look awful in cream and beige, but suit white better.
It's such a minefield!
There's an extension of the basic colour theory in this video that breaks each season into soft/deep/warm/cool - if you haven't already looked at that you might find that helps you narrow it down!
