You know, I clearly have more blue than yellow in my skin and as such blue looks better than yellow. Nevertheless blue is not my best perfect color either. Does that make sense to you?

I got this color guide and found it very interesting! I was looking at the palettes and noticed that my skin was most harmonious with the semi-bright and warm over the muted and the bright palettes. I’m not sure how to categorise my coloring. Any thoughts?

@@Masi-vk5kz That's wonderful! Thank you for supporting my business! I would say that you're probably in the middle between warm and delicate and warm and radiant. In reality, it's a spectrum of warm to cool as I draw it in my videos, and the categories are more for ease of understanding. It could also be that gold doesn't look too separate from you, but just looks bright and vibrant (since you're semi-bright/semi-muted), rather than way too bright, would you say you're bright enough for that?

Merriam Style gold is a tricky one for me in terms of jewellery and makeup. I can wear clothing with gold accents, but I feel very aged with gold especially if it’s darker and rich. I prefer light yellow gold, but when I wear silver/white gold jewellery I feel a sense of relief. Not sure that makes sense! Even with rose gold I prefer if it’s a bright tone rather than a rich, red-brownish rose gold. I can also wear bronze as long as it’s not too coppery/terracotta or too taupe. Overall I would say my coloring is deep, warm with some brightness/clarity. The RGB of my undertone is about 251, 217, 181. I’ve been confused my entire life, which is why this video and your color guide really resonated with me! Thank you! And yes, overall yellow gold doesn’t look too separate on me. I just don’t like gold eyeshadow or highlighter.

@@Masi-vk5kz That's really interesting about the metals! I think I'd have to see some photos to make sense of it!! Maybe the brighter rose gold makes sense for you because you are semi-muted/semi-bright. The other ones may be too muted for you and drag you down--not sure, would have to see, but just a thought! Gold eyeshadow and highlighter are really for the very warm and radiant undertones!! I wonder if a champagne highlighter would be nice on you in that case.

Thank you SO much for this information. This has been my life story with trying to figure out my best colors. I have recently figured out that I am warm and delicate and your video perfectly describes why I had so much trouble reaching that conclusion. It has a lot of impact on choices such as hair dye, nail polish, makeup colors, clothing, etc. Because i am so close to neutral I felt that many cool colors looked good on me but now that I know I am more warm I always make color choices that are in harmony with that. It really does feel amazing to find colors that truly flatter. Also because of you I know I am a soft classic and I am having fun choosing soft classic clothing in warm tones! You really are brilliant and have a great knack for explaining these confusing concepts. Thank you

I agree, and if you could include high vs low contrast as well that would be so great! I am delicate cool tone and high contrast myself and the usual season colour analysis that people use gives me some of the most horrible options for me like light cool pink, light cool blue and lilac etc when colours that suit me in reality are cool medium to dark blue, deep neutral red and black. The low contrast cool colours even make me look like I have a slightly warm undertone but with a grey tint, how does that work or what's the theory behind it? I don't think I've mistyped myself either because I definitely have a lot of pink in my skin and yellow, orange and even peach don't look good at all on me, then again neither does bright cool colours unless they are really dark and create a big contrast so I can get away with it.

This is really helpful! I always resolved that I was neutral, gold and silver both look good (though gold always did seem a little much sometimes), cooler colors not too bad, etc. but this makes a lot of sense. I have slightly olive skin and a little redness in the face, so it was hard to tell, but I definitely see a little bit of yellow cast to my skin in cooler colors. And I would say I always considered peach and corals to be good colors on me, icy pink not so much...You mentioned rose gold goes well with warm and delicate, and I noticed I am drawn to jewelry pieces that are mixed metals. I have some earrings with silver and gold that I really like, and a watch with a silver and gold band. I liked the versatility of them, but I think also it evens out the two metals. Champagne colors I found are also nice, as opposed to a gold shirt/dress. Thanks!

Your skin tone videos are so helpful - this one, your "Mystical Undertone" video, and the "No Such Thing as a Neutral Undertone" videos are my favorites so far. I always used to be confused the idea of "undertones," thinking that I was supposed to figuring out whether my veins were blue or green, and never having any luck because they are bluish-green. Now I understand that "undertone" and "overtone" are misleading terms; the most important thing is simply the overall skin tone, period - whether it is warm or cool. I especially like the color chart you used in the "Neutral Undertones" video; it made it really clear how true neutral colors relate to the warm & cool colors, much clearer for me than the usual color wheel.

Most color systems point to me being a deep winter, yet I don't think black is my best color.

I think this warm and delicate might be my situation as well, not sure. I look nice in pale cool blues, but also in warm muted yellows and peaches, and I look ok with both silver and gold as long as they're not too silver or too gold. To this day I can't exactly determine my season because I'm somewhere in the middle in all aspects, I feel like I'm not too warm and not too cold, not too muted and not too bright, not too light and not too deep. But my best bet was neutral-warm, given that my natural brown hair has sort of golden or copper reflexions, same as my eyes. So based on this, my best guess is probably some sort of soft autumn.
@rivkamaria65555 жыл бұрын
I just thought about this: if you have olive skin you're probably more likely to have a delicate undertone than a bright one. Why? green is a neutral, if you ad it to a skintone it "pulls" your tone towards neutral, even a warm or a cool green is still more close to neutral than the clear blue or yellow undertones of the bright skintones. What do you think?
@inesalmeida21995 жыл бұрын
I disagree. If we assume that the primary colours are red, yellow and blue, yellow being warm and blue being cool, then red will be neutral as well (just like green). The difference between olive skin tones and other skin tones is that olive skin tones have more green (yellow+blue) than other skin tones. This green can still be cool or warm, depending on how much blue or yellow is in it. The fact that a skin tone is olive has more to do with the proportion to red than the proportion between blue and yellow.
@fatoumfatoumeh5 жыл бұрын
Yes, I can see how a pale olive complexion could be delicate, as it has less pigment and is closer to neutral... but a more intense olive complexion would not. A more yellow olive would be obviously warm, and a deeper olive complexion (has more blue) would be obviously cool. Though the thing with olive skin is, it's such an intense undertone that they can get away with wearing either warm or cool, as long as the colors are rich or deep enough.

I get much darker in the summer and turn golden brown easily but in the winter, I get very pale and have rosacea. Due to this, I’ve also been mismatched as pink undertones in the winter but pink undertoned foundation looks terrible and unnatural on me, but the yellow foundations I’ve been matched with pull too yellow. Perhaps, I’m a delicate undertone?

This video is amazing 🤩, you put all my chaotic thoughts into a well researched explanation on what colors work in me and why. I know that I am not really olive but some colors make me look too yellow so I know I can’t be purely neutral. I never look good in anything with too bright of a yellow tone in it. I also always gravitate to any make-up that is described as rose or rose-gold. I love getting to know the theory behind the choices I’ve made based on my own artistic eye. Also my human brain likes labels so it is nice to know that I have an exact term for my mixed heritage skin tone.

Neutrals look great on me as do soft colors that are warm or cool. I'm warm and delicate! Thank you!! I really enjoy your videos and your perspective.

Great, detailed examples. I am warm and delicate and I thought rose gold would be no good for me because I avoid “rose” pink colors, which are usually dusty cool pinks. This is exciting! And it makes sense because as you say, peach really is one of my best colors.

Nice video! I think it goes well with your other video on skin pigments to help discern muted types. I’m Cool & Muted all year & reflect grayish against my friends in photos which I think emphasizes that I’m Cool & Muted. (I’m learning so much from u!) It’s almost like there is a spectrum of Pale & Muted LOL In winter I’m definitely more toward that neutral line which now makes sense why I can wear such pale cool colors! But when I get a lot of sun, I’m still Cool & Muted, but the extra color I get allows me to wear “a little brighter” cool tones like grape, turquoise or neon pink. Keep it up beautiful lady! 👩🏻🌸💜👏🏼

Thank you very much for your insight, dear. I have the so called "delicate and golden" overtone, and Seasonal Color Analysis just couldn't nail that down. IMO, the biggest drawback of the system is that it doesn't accommodate LIGHT and MUTED/SOFT hue TOGETHER (a.k.a. Neutral-Warm undertones) for warm undertones like it does for the cool undertone (Summer: Cool and Delicate (Light and Muted) or a Neutral-Cool undertone). Both seasons of warm undertones (Spring: Light, Warm and Bright) and (Autumn: Deep, Warm, Muted). Either way, the combinations just gives in downright yellow undertones on both ends of the spectrum, neutral-warm undertones are inexistent in the system! This is exactly why I ended up testing as Cool-undertoned yet still look a wee bit more yellowish sometimes with my season's colors. I often get away with clothing due to the borderline neutral undertone I have like you said, but makeup is a real deal-breaker. Winter makeup pallette overpowers me. Both Spring and Autumn ones look separate on me, the closest that I can wear would be the Summer pallette, but not entirely or it looks slightly separate too. Now I know why I often need to mix up colors to make my own hues and shades of makeup, while it's just a fun option to try for others around me. But it's really true that this undertone is often mistyped as Cool, as the only category that fit the more neutral, both muted and light chroma is only available under the Summer pallette, which is under the Cool category. Most probably, anyone with a light but muted coloring is just sorted as Cool-undertoned, even if they aren't! (Btw both Clarke and Blanchett are prototypes of the Summer category).

Wow. Truly the most accurate color typing system and it’s simple too. I have a golden tan skintone with olive undertones and I look better in greys which led me to think I’m cool leaning. I also can’t wear crisp bright colors or blacks or whites. I naturally gravitate towards dark silver jewelry, rose gold, and brass. I had to watch this video several times because I’ve been so convinced I’m cool. I wear an NC40 in mac for example.

all olive skin has cool undertones and are on the Winter spectrum so if you don't suit black you are mostly likely a cool winter or a bright winter

THANK YOU! This is why I've been so confused all this time. I've got that light skin, blonde hair, blue eyes, and my lashes and brows have no warmth, seems like I'd be cool. But in photos you can see my skin has a faint yellow tint, even in winter. I had the makeup counter ladies fighting over my correct foundation color, so no wonder I could never figure it out. This explains it so well, and with this and some of your other videos, I draped myself and am going all in with Warm and Delicate.

Wow! I just found you! I think I've had an epiphany. I am still unsure. Life is too short to wear less flattering colors. Plus I love top quality clothes so it's time to get it right. Thank you Merriam!
