What season are you....


Seasons? no I am not talking about what season you like, I am talking about your coloration.

This was one of the things i learned about in the class I took at our community college. If you can get your season figured out, You can always look awesome!

It is known as "seasonal" color analysis, which places individual coloring into four general categories: Winter, Spring, Summer and Autumn.

"Winters" and "Summers" have cool coloring. Some clues that a person has cool coloring might include ash tones in the hair, grey-blue eyes and pinkish undertones to the skin.

"Springs" and "Autumns" have warm coloring. Some signs of warm coloring are red or golden hair, golden brown eyes and golden undertones to the skin.

Knowing what season you are will aid in many things... what colors look best on you. those would be the colors that extenuate. your natural colorings. (you probably already gravitate toward those colors) but it also aids in your makeup choices.

As an example since i already knew my season I found a simple quiz and took it... to make certain it was correct. I will darken the parts that do not apply to me personally.....

this was my result {BTW its correct}
