A colour analysis session is a once-off experience to discover your colours for life.
A palette is a collection of colours that emphasise your natural chromatic characteristics, making you look radiant and healthy. Colour analysis identifies your personal palette by examining your natural characteristics (undertone, intensity and value).
A colour analysis session will make you discover something new about yourself and give you the knowledge to shop less and better and to improve your wardrobe and style.

[@lilymulligan8180]

I think the fact that you (as the stylist) wear white and the room is white reeeeeeally helps me see the difference in how these colors impact the skin. I already know I'm about to binge this entire channel! I'm so interested in color analysis!

[@shelaghelainecleary1063]

Does anyone know if the colour analysis has to be done based on your natural hair colour or can it be done using dyed hair colour. I’m finding things confusing! I have naturally mid brown hair and grey/green eyes, but have my hair a dark brown/black at the moment. The only thing I know is that black and white suit me the best of all colours and maybe light blue

[@CC-bw2rp]

Agreed!! The best I’ve seen! 🙌🏻💯

[@EdiliaBarajas]

She explained everything so well ❤

[@Gandellion]

It’s cool that Saskia is still a summer despite having dark hair

[@colouranalysis_studio]

Hair and skin colours don’t determine a season, and I love that too ❤ thanks for your comment

[@SueRosalie]

but you will note that next to a Winter, her hair is not that dark at all

[@blingblingtea5266]

My cousin is a summer, her colors are a cool tan but she's very low saturated and soft

[@katem3961]

For me, seeing a colour that looks okay compared to a colour that really pops is the best. Your presentation style Julia is excellent.

@@colouranalysis_studio Please may I ask a question that I keep thinking about...If a person has a seasonal analysis assessment and they are found to be Spring Light, is Summer light their sister group? Which is the main tell tale colour that shows a person must be Spring Light? Thankyou very much x

[@colouranalysis_studio]

@@sueg2286thanks for your question 💕 we suggest to have a look at our last video which is dedicated to this 🤍

[@brennakohlhase4194]

Wow that metallic blue just made her look like a movie star from the 20’s!!!❤❤❤

[@stephanieallen3926]

Wow! I could actually see the differences in her face against the different colors. I love color analysis videos but rarely see such a big difference.

[@ec4145]

I loved seeing a cool brunette not getting shoehorned into winter, thank you for this! I am the same, darker hair but a cool summer. Medium, soft, cool colors look so much better. I spent so long thinking I was a winter, but I look much less severe in summer colors over winter. Cool peach/coral, greyish lavender, sage, baby blue, chef's kiss! My eyes are a grey/green mottled color, and I love green clothes the most.

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

When I had my color analysis, with my family and a few friends around, they all said Oh, Wow! when the analyst put the pale aqua (blue/green) drape on me. They said it looked like I had foundation, blush, powder and lipstick on, so much did it smooth and brighten my coloring. It’s been one of my best colors ever since, and this season it’s finally available in clothes again. I love a top in this color with white jeans, trousers or skirt, it’s very fresh and springlike.

[@CLJL]

The background of the studio as well as the white shirt the analyst is wearing really helps to see the difference! And taking the time to see the comparison against the face is so helpful. Thank you ❤

[@colorcreatecamera]

Hands down the best demonstration online of color analysis! That mauve was just stunning on her! I love seeing the differences in color and how they react to the undertones, so fabulous!

[@fayfayb06]

Before the analysis started I guessed cool winter. But she is definitely not as intense as that. Amazing how clear that is when compared side by side.

[@estellescordellis4332]

I thought that until her hair was covered and then thought maybe a summer.

[@blueice011]

Yes! I said Soft Summer instantly (I'm Light Summer) since she has low contrast like me, just soft, muted. I am grey haired now and many people think I'm Winter, but I was blond before going grey, so my contrast wasn't sufficient to make me Winter. :)

[@ellixrose2650]

I'm learning so much watching these and I click so fast when they are posted. 😄 she's rocking her colors amazingly 👌👌💯

[@myssangela4872]

I knew Saskia would be a Summer because she's a ray of sunshine

[@barbarapetancic7163]

This is so good guys. I have been learning about colors for a long time now but just watching 3 of your videos things got so much clearer! Please do the analysis for someone with light olive skin.

[@oliveoil2x]

Yes. The CA team would do great analysis of olive skin folks. It’s tough to find those subgroups.

[@kuromiya3957]

This makes a lot of sense to me, since I have similar features with Saskia, only my hair and eye colors are darker and skin tone lighter. People were used to assume me being a winter, even myself kinda believed that. But most winter colors just look harsh on me, even black drags me down. That’s when I started to realize I’m probably a summer type. And it’s so true that when we wear makeups, we are usually increasing our intensity, which allows us to borrow a few colors from neighbor pallets. I often “steal” from the winter pallets when I’m wearing full makeup, nothing extreme though.

[@alinam8854]

As a cool summer myself, I love your set of drapes for cool summer! Finally someone with the drapes that have a proper level of coolness and intensity, not too washed out, without browns and beiges. Thanks for posting!

[@SueRosalie]

yes. Cool summer here also. I had the Color Me Beautiful books back in the 80s and I disliked many of the colours in the Summer palette particularly the beiges, browns and the yellow. I cannot tolerate yellow at all and it really should not be included in any of the cool season palettes imo because yellow is the warmest of all colours. You can't make a cool yellow, you can only water it down with white. Winters can get away with it simply because they have high intensity and depth of colouring.

[@sciencenotstigma9534]

@@SueRosalie I agree about yellow.

[@svetabogush8266]

How did you decide that you are a cool summer? I know I'm definitely summer and probably not a bright either, but don't know about is it cool or soft

[@alinam8854]

@@svetabogush8266 In terms of appearance, I have a fair rosy skin that doesn’t tan at all, and my eyes are dark blue, like a dark denim color, so that allows me to pull off more contrast than a soft summer. In terms of color, soft summers have some muted peach, khaki, cream, brownish greige colors that are not my best. Soft summers can pull off a muted cool brown whereas my ‘flattering brown’ is wine/burgundy. Anything with a hint of yellow looks worse than without it.

[@svetabogush8266]

@@alinam8854 I see. Well I tan well enough, but I think I can definitely tell that warm colours don't suit me

[@oliveoil2x]

Thank you. I really like your approach to color analysis - in fact, I think I prefer your method and delivery to others I’ve seen, because of how thorough y’all are with each analysis. The follow up towards the end - with ‘borrowing’ from other seasons, is so very beneficial. That double check aspect (a true summer is best in that realm, whereas a cool summer can borrow from cool winter at times…) is the most helpful to me. I’m able to recognize why some colors work for me, even though they seem a little unexpected.

[@karenturner-wensel9536]

I agree. I am a summer color but wasn't sure why I can wear winter colors, too. In a "professional" business setting I wear quite a few winter colors for my intensity and seriousness. In my personal time I wear summer season coloring and feel more relaxed and happy. As I have aged and moved up the corporate ladder I have allowed myself to wear less dramatic shades of cool and enjoy each day a little more!!+ This color theory stuff is true and it works to help me be my best self!! Thank you for sharing your expertise. ❤️

[@Retrosenescent]

She seems in between summer and winter because the colors looked too washed out for her. She looks good with medium brightness and with medium- dark colors only. The light colors and the soft colors looked the worst on her.

[@ra7e]

Saskia's smile is very charming and adorable! 🥰

[@spindletrim]

It would be wonderful to see colour analyses with someone with a darker skin tone. Interesting videos!

[@kitty_s23456]

Hi. I suggest to watch the draping vids of Jannat Ara (DA) and HeyHershey (DW). They're both dark haired and tanned.

[@marissalorraine8700]

This is soooo helpful! I’m a summer but couldn’t tell if I can do winter or not… you really used verbiage that makes sense to me! You are my favorite color analysis channel!

[@patriciadase9751]

I’m so impressed with how professional you both are. I enjoyed episodes as you did color analysis on each other. I was told I was an autumn, in my 30’s, and a winter in my 40’s. I have auburn hair (tinted since age 18), and green eyes. I’m now 74, and this still fascinates me… You ladies are terrific! I wish you great success!!

[@colouranalysis_studio]

Thank you so much Patricia, much appreciated 💖🌈

[@Anna-yl2lp]

Glad you mentioned the red lipstick, there's a lot of "red is a big no no for summers" and I'm always like isn't there a red literally in the palette? Same as that cool pinkish brown. I also always liked lower contrast girlies with a darker lipstick to be honest, looks very runway/editorial to me, or am I crazy?

[@SueRosalie]

cool pinky reds and strawberry reds are great for summers

[@SueRosalie]

This is by far the best channel and the best videos I have ever seen on this topic. Can't wait to see all the subgroups covered! There are colour analysts out there who are making mistakes and just don't have the depth of knowledge and understanding of nuances that you do.

[@colouranalysis_studio]

Thank you so much Sue, we are so glad you like our channel! We are doing our best to bring you guys the highest-quality content possible. Thank you again for your support xxx

[@fawnf5784]

I had this idea that being fair with dark features automatically made you winter, but this case definitely threw me! 💕

[@carlijnkruidhof]

[@cherylcoolidge8249]

Thank you so much for this summer analysis. She's a doll!

[@pestinora]

I knew she will be a Cool/True Summer. Eventhough I know I'm a Soft Summer I love these because it introduces types to colours they would have not thought about before but suit them so well. Amazing video!

[@blueshoes915]

This was so helpful. I always thought I was a cool winter because cobalt blue is my best color but now I realize I am a cool summer and that is why cobalt blue looks so good on me along with a kelly green but some of the other colors in the winter cool palette do not work.

[@northwoodfalls1403]

I have been unsure if I am a cool summer or a cool winter. Seeing the comparison of the different sub groups of summer and then the comparison to the cool winter palate at the end was soooo helpful! I am very similar to this young lady in that I straddle the area between them but I think I, too, am more of a cool summer and now I can see the difference. The darkness of the winter cool is just a tad too much. I don’t have quite enough contrast in my features to carry those darker tones as well. At least not without makeup to help. It also confirms for me why I prefer some of the blues in my wardrobe over others even though they all look good. Some are just *chef’s kiss* perfect compared to the “pretty good” of the others. Thank you for sharing this 😊

[@pinagrrrr2280]

I think Saskia could pull salamon pink as well. Like it is not looking bad on her and if she had green or brown eyes even more. Love your work ❤

[@hempmaiden]

These videos at]re absolutely fascinating! It would be very interesting to see some analysis being done on some people with unusual colourings, eg, very fair hair or red hair, other skin or eye tones etc

Everything is clear and , but when you contrasted the navy blue and the brown, the brown was not a clear loser. It made her eyes better than the navy blue and it matched her brows. I wonder if others see this too?

[@ipercalisse579]

Nope. Blue was her colour. Brown killed her complexion

It's so nice to see a summer! I'm loving your videos and I'm so excited for any future uploads!

[@torymata]

I love these analyses! Your process of elimination by testing related subgroups at the end is so clear and logical, and has really helped round out my understanding of the seasons. I’m also really appreciating the season chart you use which differs a bit from the typical American chart I’m used to seeing. Makes so much more sense to me, with ‘True’ being a balanced blend of all three traits. Always looking forward to the next video!

[@shannonhibble5233]

Another great video! Can't wait for the next one. You take your time, it's not rushed, and then backing it up with both the cross-check of sister seasons and a final recap with the face cards is a great way to really drive it home!

[@jessyup1368]

I love this since I just got my color analysis done yesterday, and it turns out I’m a summer too. Went for so long thinking I was an Autumn since I have brown hair and brown eyes. These videos has been so informative, please keep making them!

Very nice! Her season becomes so evident during the analysis, especially when compared to other subgroups. Loved it ❤️

[@CaptPeanutBut]

Love this, understand the seasons so much better after watching. Would love to see a cool winter.

[@PatMcAnn]

I love your analysis. Very understandable and straightforward.

[@ready4reiki]

I love watching these. I can’t wait to see a dark autumn so I can see the comparison to the other sub groups that you test it against to finalize your decision. I had my analysis done in the mid 80’s by color me beautiful and was autumn. I had it done again this year. I was told true autumn but some of the colors weren’t working great when I was shopping so I went back in and it was decided I was dark autumn. I feel confident in this. I don’t think I could be anything else. But I love to see how you solidify your sub groups.

[@SueRosalie]

IMO this system is far superior to both the old and current Color Me Beautiful systems which keep changing and are confusing for both analysts and clients! They dropped the seasonal naming and use a system that is not logical or clear cut and is just unnecessarily complicated.

[@sandykerr3872]

The way you go through the analysis makes it so clear to see what suits the person best. Watched one video and then had to watch the other three and now I look forward to more. Thank you.

Great analysis. She looks fantastic in the cool summer palette. I actually really liked the medium sage and the mauve on her. I have a similar level of contrast myself in hair and skin, but I'm a Soft Autumn, so slightly warmer with freckles. I much prefer this system to the original four season system which completely overlooked us softer more muted seasons. Thank goodness the colour theory was updated, it makes much more sense now with the sub categories.

I just learned SO MUCH. Thank you for putting this online! This was such a fun class for me to follow along with using my own clothes matching your color samples. I was completely wrong thinking I had warm undertones because I like autumn colors so much, but turns out I have cool undertones and medium-high intensity!!! It's funny because those are always the colors I gravitate towards when I want to look my best - I wonder why! The graphs were so helpful to keep track of what area of colors we were looking at.

[@lilybean1000]

I was analyzed in the early 90s. I was a “Spring”, sub seasons were not a thing. I was in my early 30s. I was analyzed again in August of 2022 as a Light Spring. So not much change, even though I am much older!

[@kitty_s23456]

@beth - you were probably a true spring before and are now a light spring. Some analysts say that as we age, we can become softer/ more muted. Light spring is the softer version of spring (near to summer).

[@RosieGoodburn]

​@@kitty_s23456 It could also be because 12 season systems weren't widely used in the early 90s! One of the first (if not the first) of these was by Kathryn Kalisz, with her Sci/ART company in 2000.
