What Season Am I? How to Determine Your Color Season
Step 1: Determine Your Undertone
Your undertone is the foundation of your season. Use these tests:
Vein Test
Look at your wrist veins in natural light. Green veins = warm undertone. Blue/purple veins = cool undertone. Both/unclear = neutral.
Metal Test
Which metal looks better on you? Gold = warm. Silver = cool. Both = neutral.
Sun Test
Do you tan easily (warm) or burn easily (cool)?
Step 2: Determine Your Depth
Are your natural features light, medium, or deep?
Light
Fair skin, light hair, light eyes
Medium
Medium skin, medium hair, medium eyes
Deep
Deep skin, dark hair, deep eyes
Step 3: Determine Your Chroma
Are your colors muted/soft or clear/bright?
Muted/Soft
Low contrast between features, colors blend together, everything appears softened
Clear/Bright
High contrast between features, colors are vivid and distinct
