I got a color analysis in Korea & did not expect my results LOL

I almost didn't post this because I felt hideous haha (I lightened my brows before the trip and the bright lighting made them look non-existent)

my theory is that you seem to go for shades that create a bit of dissonance with your features, and that adds that little bit of grit to your look that goes so well with your grungey style. so maybe you never felt like your recommended colors fit you bcs even though they are visually the most harmonious with your features, they just create an effect that you don't like on yourself - it's too proper or polished, and although it's great to know what colors make you look your most elegant for special occasions, it might not reflect your personality or your everyday style

[@thrift-rat]

Your theory is on point!! Literally described what I couldn't put into words 😅 thank you!!

[@iluvzevon]

Exaaactly. Those cool blues and purples (that teal sweater!!) are gorgeous on you but that doesn't mean it's going to "feel" like you. Really enjoyed this!

[@joy-bang]

i think maybe the reason u like those classic autumn shades may be ur hair. the tone of your hair makes any autumnal shade look gorgeous, esp when combined w ur skin tone. but tbh i think u look great in any color. color analysis is super interesting tho

[@thrift-rat]

Great point!! Aw tysm! :*) it was!! Highly recommend it to everyone.

[@soulsworn13]

I think the analysis results do compliment your features really well, it looks more even and "friendly" idk But your general colour preferences look cooler and punchier. I'd probably buy PJs and formal wear in your recommended colours so you can get that "naturally healthy" buff without any effort

[@thrift-rat]

I see what you mean!! That's a great idea actually! Thanks for your feedback ☺️🫶🏻

[@sahritam2666]

This was so interesting! I love watching color analysis videos. Your skin is perfect and you’re naturally so pretty, I think you can really rock anything. You keep wearing that warm puke green 😣🫵 Sometimes I agree, a flattering color can make someone’s features pop more and an overpowering color can wash someone out. Although, one time a hair stylist told me red hair wouldn’t suit me well cause it would bring out my rosiness and pimples lol. But as long as someone has confidence, that’s what really makes them shine. It all depends on personal style and what they’re going for ✨

[@thrift-rat]

Aw you're the sweetest!! 🥺 Oh yeah! I'll never give it up!! 😈 I know how much you love chartreuse too hehe. What!! I'm so surprised! I think you look so pretty with red hair. Oh 100%%%

[@victoriacampbell9789]

Hii, I lovedd the video! I personally agree that you are a neutral to cool, I think you do look great with silver jewelry! I think muted but also the colors you said you like the deep colors look good on you

[@thrift-rat]

Yay glad you enjoyed it!! :-)) oh dang ok so my results seem accurate then. Thank you!!

[@Deem57]

I would like to see the cool toned sweater with the black skirt. Cool toned medium high contrast.

[@millsi9642]

Ooooh I love that forest green cardi on you

[@thrift-rat]

Thank you!!

[@sarahtreasure844]

I think it would be clearer for you to see with your natural hair color. When you dye your hair you lighten it into a yellowish hue. So even after you've dyed it it fades back to a yellowish hue. Which is not the best on you. I think what she meant to share on contrast is about prints. If you were to wear a busy pattern like stripes or leopard it would be better to lower the contrast. Like light grey and dark grey leopard instead of black and white leopard. The muted outfit you try on is very low contrast and it's similar value to your skin. So if the sweater was the same muted color only darker and the skirt was the same muted color only lighter (or vice versa) it would be medium contrast. The colors are right you just need to bump up the contrast. The black outfit you try on is also very low contrast because it's all dark. However, it has a higher contrast with your skin. Your warm colored sweaters "look better" to you because they create more contrast in value than the other sweaters. If your cool green sweater was lighter it would bring a better level of contrast. (Also if the black was charcoal or navy it would be better.) Muted colors suit you. Neutral (as in between cool and warm) colors suit you. Cool colors suit you. I think patterns would be best at low to medium contrast. When creating an outfit medium to high contrast. Your low contrast outfit in dark colors seems to work because of the high contrast with your skin. You look good in blue-green, blue, lavender, and pink (all muted colors). Good neutrals are rosy-dusty-brown (like hot cocoa), sage, navy, and light grey. Good luck! I know it's a lot. You're beautiful no matter what.

[@thrift-rat]

Great points!! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!! 🫶🏻🫶🏻

[@diana.elizabeth022]

I didn’t know your name was Isabel, so pretty! This is so interesting to me and I’ve always wondered what my color palette is! I know I’m have 🫒 skin tone. I love autumn colors on me, deeper, jewel tones, I love grungier style. I’ve never really like brighter or pastel colors on me.

[@thrift-rat]

Yeah hehe, thank you!! 🫶🏻 hmm we sound very similar!! Ok after reading all the feedback I think I might be pale olive too lol. You might be aware already, but there's a subreddit for pale olives. It has been super eye-opening to go through! I've always struggled to find a foundation/concealer that matches, and now I know why 😅

[@sadkindahappy7912]

I think because you're neutral you can pull off the different colors. I think the color analysis can be helpful and interesting but to your point, subjective in a way. For me, if i were to go get one done and they told me i suited pastel pinks and purples i would have a really hard time integrating those colors into my wardrobe because its just not my style. I think id be most interested in knowing what jewlery tone and hair color would suit me best

[@thrift-rat]

Exactly!!! I think ultimately personal taste trumps what's meant to be most "flattering." You should definitely look into getting it done! :-))

[@markjordan433]

I'm only part way through watching, but you seem to come up best in the summer palette.

[@liannamedinaro]

I like high contrast clothes but low contrast glasses on you ❤

[@thrift-rat]

Thanks!! hehe :-))

[@vanerey_]

ok so I'm not a color analysis expert by any means, but I have done art my whole life & I've taken color theory classes... whatever blah blah blah ☠ It's interesting that she said you don't look good with higher contrast...because I would argue that you do. Especially when you're looking at the contrast of your skin color to your hair, there's quite of difference in value. I've seen quite a few videos in which people who have light features overall (like blonde/ginger hair & light eyes) are told that THEY need to be cautious of the higher contrast. Also muted colors can be dark as well, not just light! So you do have a good amount of that in your wardrobe haha ♥

[@thrift-rat]

Me too! But to be fair she said mid contrast is best and high contrast second. Omg you're right!! LOL I have lots of muted browns and greens 😅. Thanks for sharing your thoughts! 🫶🏻🫶🏻

[@emrk6517]

Color analysis determines your undertone. Your make up has to also cater to your overtone/skin tone and that means you may need warmer a foundation. I'm cool/neutral and my foundation has to be grayish to blend into my skin tone the best, not pinkish for cool undertone nor yellowish for warm undertone.

[@tessarose8430]

the fact that she thought your hair was cool toned is interesting. i know nothing about colors but it looks warm to me! also i prefer the colors you usually go for. i feel like they give you more life like you said. Korean beauty standards place heavy emphasis on even and pale skin, so maybe that has something to do with it. so the colors she chose for you i agree with, but when it comes to styling i like the colors you choose normally!

[@thrift-rat]

I thought so too! 🤔 thank you!! ❤️

[@sereniteretrouvee]

Hi, Frankly, you can wear whatever you want, if you feel good in it. But It seems to me that you left your session with a misconsception on what is contrast. High contrast means that if you take a black and white photograph of your outfits , the skirt and tee-shirt will stay black but the cardigans would appear white or at least very light grey. So, there is big difference between the two garnments. In all the outfits you've shown us, the cardigans, would appear medium to dark grey depending of the outerwear. So, low to medium contrast. The dark green sweater combine with the black skirt create a very low contrast. Same for what you see as bold colors, they seem to me quite muted, darker than what you saw during your color analysis but still muted. Bright colors would be the red in the art on the wall behind you , or the yellow-green ball? in the background.

[@thrift-rat]

Hii hmm guess I took it more as low, mid, to high contrast against my skin color, not the contrast that is created with the garments I put together. I'm not the best at this color/contrast stuff LOL

[@sunnysocoolio]

There has been talk on yt that sometimes korean analysts focus more on "overtones", and its indicative in their preference over neutral white light compared to analysts who work in natural lighting, i know that western color analysts are stupid expensive but i wonder how your results would change by method

[@thrift-rat]

That's interesting!! Yeah the price difference is wild 😩. Me too!

[@xsk12]

Colour analysis always seems to focus on what makes you “prettiest” which I think a lot of women don’t want lol

[@thrift-rat]

Very true!! A lot of us strive for somewhat off-putting LOL

[@durcheinander5554]

That is so accurate. I feel like color analysis has its place if you are interested in your most flattering colors. Except this is not always what people want. They might want to wear the colors they like, ones that fit their personality or ones that will make others react a certain way. Or honestly, just wear all black because it makes it easier to do your laundry :D I wonder if color analysis is so popular in Korea because it's a less individualistic culture. Maybe it's more important to Koreans to look harmonious, pretty and blend in than it is for people in the West.
