How seasonal color classification works
Seasonal color analysis evaluates three primary dimensions of your natural appearance: temperature (warm vs. cool undertones), value (light vs. deep features), and chroma (bright vs. soft muted tones). Combining these attributes divides the four traditional seasons into twelve distinct sub-seasons: Light Spring, Warm Spring, Bright Spring, Light Summer, Cool Summer, Soft Summer, Soft Autumn, Warm Autumn, Deep Autumn, Bright Winter, Cool Winter, and Deep Winter.
By answering questions about your wrist vein hue, natural contrast level, lip shade, and sun reaction, our scoring algorithm calculates your dominant seasonal characteristics accurately.
Identifying your precise sub-season provides clear guidance on which clothing colors, hair shades, and makeup tones harmonize with your natural complexion, helping you look vibrant and awake effortlessly.
Understanding your seasonal palette simplifies shopping and wardrobe planning, ensuring every color choice enhances your natural features.
Applying your color season to daily styling
Once you identify your seasonal palette, applying it to your daily routine is straightforward. Warm seasons (Spring and Autumn) look radiant in golden, peach, olive, and cream tones, while cool seasons (Summer and Winter) shine in berry, plum, slate, and crisp white shades.
Wearing complementary shades near your face reflects light harmoniously, minimizing visual redness and dark circles without needing heavy makeup coverage.

The quiz scores ten answers across three axes — temperature, value and chroma — and places the result into one of twelve seasons. It is a heuristic built on the standard questions used in seasonal analysis, not a measurement instrument, and it is deliberately transparent about that.
Two conditions substantially improve the accuracy of your answers. Take it in daylight, near a window, without makeup, because indoor bulbs skew warm and foundation is itself an undertone correction. And answer on your natural colouring rather than your dyed hair, since dye changes what you see long before it changes what suits you.
If your result feels wrong, that is worth taking seriously rather than dismissing. Boundary cases are genuinely common, particularly between Soft Summer and Soft Autumn, and between the light seasons. The season pages describe the specific comparisons that separate neighbouring seasons, which is usually a faster route to an answer than retaking the quiz.
Retaking this after a haircut, a dye job or a summer of sun is reasonable, but answer on your natural colouring each time rather than on what you currently see. The season does not change; only its presentation does.
A result that surprises you is worth checking against a daylight drape before you accept or dismiss it.
