I Got A Personal Color Analysis

HELLO FRIENDS!! it turns out black is (one of) my color(s)! what a relief.... not that anyone could pry my funereal wardrobe away from me 🦇 what do you guys think? would you try a personal color analysis? thanks again to julia at @agilestyling for being our expert! and with the celebrities in the seasonal graphics... we tried our absolute best but there is definitely the possibility of a mistake, so sorry if that's the case!! xoxo, saf

[@sk8ergalx]

Actually when I went to a personal colour consultant, she gave me secondary colour palette that still looks good, even if not the best. I think it is important to know the range of what looks okay to the best, not just sticking to the best. My consultant also gave me tips of how to make the best of colours that are not in the good tone for me by playing with contrast, position of the colours, etc. It is actually more freeing than restrictive when you have these tips and insights on how to make colours work for you!

[@kitty_s23456]

my mom (who is super good at this) gives people this advice: to find out what your palette is, look at your wardrobe of favorite clothes. if you always love how you look in certain colors, it's probably because they're the most flattering colors for you. also people tend to compliment you when you're wearing your best palette.

Not really, because for the longest time I thought warm and muted colors look the best on me, when actually I learned it's the opposite when I got analyzed.

[@AdorkableArtist92]

That’s exactly why I think I’m a winter! When I wear cobalt blue, deep purples and greens, and deep reds or fuchsia, I get lots of compliments. I get a little thrown off though because I look great in yellows that lean more toward the autumn palettes. I really just need to get my colors done professionally. I’ve always bern obsessed with color and color theory, and seasonal analysis has been one of my special interests for months!

[@アシキン]

No wonder I never figure out what clothes look best on me before 🥲. I'm a true winter loving autumn shades. So, I bought lots of neutral autumn colours and never like my looks in any of them. I got depressed after knowing about color analysis and both my friends and siblings were hellbent on making me realized how good black and deeper cool shades look good on me 🥲. Taking years to swallow the premonition that I might really be a winter before finally paying for a colour analysis online. And yes, I'm a winter. A true winter at that 🥲. One that is not borderline with any of the other seasons at all.

Without trying to put down any other content creators, this team clearly has so much passion and integrity!

[@quirkysaucy]

I did this years ago and it was life changing. Also, it helps with decluttering your wardrobe. The colorist I used had a community and we would meet quarterly and bring our decluttered items. We would spent an hour with the stylist giving our clothes to the people they belonged to. It was legit so much fun seeing the clothes go to the right people.

I know, after tens minutes of dealing with fabric swatches, I was like, 'Oh, so Jewel Tones?' Haha, I kid though, it was an information process!

[@nikitatavernitilitvynova]

Yes. Before I found out I suit them I got an emerald green/teal teddy bear coat as my Christmas gift and my mom hasn't stopped talking about it since. She says it looks stunning on me and the colour is so unique but it works great because it's not a pea green that would clash with my olive tone. But it has some blue in it too. She told me how she would go and get herself the same coat if she has any money to spare. I got it for like 30% off during black Friday since I needed a new coat. Because she also couldn't stop talking about how my old coat looked very used. Regardless I wear jewel tones quite often. Like the sweater in my pic and I had a time in highschool where I'd wear anything blue. My mom told me blue washes me out a bit being pale but apparently it suits me very well because younger me was onto something.

[@naomilangevin3944]

For those who are interested in this color styling, keep in mind it's all meant for your top half, or things that are near your face. You can wear whatever color bottoms you like, and you don't need to wear full outfits of your colours. These tests are literally about seeing how your face looks against certain colors, so don't be worried thinking you have to give up your favorite pair of pants!

[@NoName-dx1no]

Yeah I remember someone saying it’s one thing for your clothes to not suit your skin since it may not be that noticeable but it’s more important for your makeup to suit your face because it’s literally your face

[@stardroplet9499]

👍

[@pinkdarkman]

Also if you have a favorite top that goes against your color palette, just wear it. Color theory was meant to be broken and played with, not treated as a strict ruleset.

[@vixxcelacea2778]

True! But at the same time, there is color theory against colors themselves and unless you know how to mix really well, wearing a muted warm tone pant with a cool jewel tone top might look a bit funky. Usually accessories and additions can balance it, like the color of the outer top or inner, belt, shoes etc. Blue jeans weirdly look good on everyone. Apparently blue goes with most other colors. Even in jeans though, you can choose a cool, neutral or warmer tone.

[@lrizzard]

yeah and as safiya said its not an exact science and is more about the feel of it so if you do like wearing a certain color then it is your colour!!

[@yoongiverse.]

It’s literally so crazy to me how when Julia pulled away the warm color palette, you could see the difference in Safiya’s face.

[@potatohead9257]

I actually never believed this trend at first, until I watched Safiya and how the colours truly have an effect to how she looks. The bright cool colours look so so good on her.

[@Chaotic_Pixie]

It's absolutely based in color theory. It by no mean should stop a person from wearing a favorite color but it can help answer questions of why you might be uncomfortable in certain colors... what people ask if you're feeling okay when you wear certain colors... even things like why you suddenly look more tired just by changing your shirt. (An unfortunate side effect of some retail uniforms on some people.)

[@CT1010101]

I mean at the very least cool and warm undertones seem extremely legitimate. Honestly you could probably stop there & that's enough.

[@you_dropped_something]

@@CT1010101 honestly depends on the person! when i got my colours done, the analyst talked about that for most people, one of the 3 scales mattered 'more' than the other 2, but they can vary person to person. we found that for me it was most important to have bright, clear, saturated colours, and that while i do better in cool tones, i could handle a little warmth. but when looking at muted, greyed out colours i looked awful. but i would agree that even figuring out 1/3 would make a big difference!

[@CT1010101]

Yeah it doesn’t show up right on camera because cameras auto-adjust. That’s why those TikTok filters don’t work.

Yes! One KZbinr got two analyses, with very different results. She did hers online, which is very hit or miss. She definitely narrowed it down, but in-person is much more accurate.

[@アシキン]

​@@sciencenotstigma9534I'm not worried about getting my hue wrong if I do it online but I think the intensity is harder to analyze online because of the picture quality. I did an online analysis once before and got a palette from the analyst. I printed it in Canva to make sure I got the colours right, but my siblings had been telling me that I look better in brighter colours than the ones in the palette which is something I actually agree on. Probably the quality of my picture got a bit dusty or something when I sent it to the analyst, so I got a slightly wrong palette 🥲. But it's okay, I guess I know what looks the best on me now after a lot of trys.

The cool makeup palette makes a very noticeable difference. I thought you looked great before, so seeing such a significant change was surprising.

Definitely! As winters are bright and deep they have so much contrast and they legit pops.

You're definitely a winter. I haven't even started the video yet. The high contrast between your skin and eyes, the high contrast between your hair and skin. The soft cool olive undertones. Classic winter! Stay away from oranges and pastels, but embrace blacks, pure white, jewel tones, and raspberry cool reds! Also, avoid pastels and look for icy (lighter version of pastels) colors instead.

[@andrew_sar]

Also keep your hair very ashy and avoid red/golden tones! That's different than if your hair reflects certain colors in the sunlight. For example, many winters with dark hair may reflect copper in the sunlight. However, copper shouldn't be the dominate tone. Also, people who have both green and blue veins are often olive undertoned! Olive is inherently cool because there is more blue than yellow in "olive."

Same! I really liked the cool grey ombre on her and then they dyed her hair warm colors, I was disappointed

Oh, she can absolutely rock the right shade of brown. A blue-based brown would be sensational on her if she wanted a softer look. It's why the blue-based black looks so good on her. Not all blacks are blue-based... same way with grays. There are warm blacks and grays too.

[@Kendraeardnek]

As a Winter myself who has used my colors faithfully since my teens and can recognize them pretty well, I've always been of the opinion that Safiya is a fellow Winter. She couldn't wear as much black as she does, looking as good as she does in it, and not be one.

[@calicoquilter4472]

This is such a blast from the past for me. I had my colors done in the mid 80's as a 30th birthday present. I'm what was called a dark summer by the analyst. Funny thing is, I kinda already knew what worked for me. For example, put me in black and I look like I'm going to my own funeral. If I try to wear yellow-undertone colors people ask if I feel OK. Amazing how small changes in color really make a difference.

To anyone reading this: a color analysis can help you figure out what to wear, but just remember that you should still stick to wearing what you want!

[@Chaotic_Pixie]

Agreed. But it can also help you figure out why people always ask if you sick when you wear a certain color or why you always seem to look more tired when you change into your work shirt or why, no matter what brand you try... foundation never seems to match. There's a similar test for finding your foundation shade too because way more people out there are cool toned or have olive or gray undertones be they cool or neutral. It's also useful to know if you're trying to pick outfits for photographs or a job interview where you really want to be looking your best.

The funny thing is someone who has been professionally trained to do this like myself can tell what you are without doing the actual analysis.

It is for the client. With a good color analyst, they receive a valuable education, through the draping and explanation. It’s certainly a worthwhile investment, if you can swing it.

Hello as u are professionally trained can u help me a bit? What do u think are the seasons suit to neutral toned ones? I have a medium contrast (between bright and soft) and I have high value( light) I'm not deep, not fully bright nor fully soft. I suit light makeup and light pinks and yellows. Cream and somewhat greys too. What do u think could most likely be my season?

[@Ytbkt]

@@Snowhite-tx4sm I couldn’t advise you on this without seeing you in person, unfortunately. But from your explanation i would look into whether you flow between summer and spring. There are overlaps, you may need to get your hands on the next stage of flags where you can figure out what you are flowing through. Since your palette is more complicated I would pin point a few of your wow colours and just redesign your closet around those. Simplify, because it sounds like your colours are currently complicating things haha but never forget that rules are made to be broken :) so if you like a certain colour and it’s not your palette - I would still rock it just maybe less on days when you want to make your best impression.

As someone who was in high school in the early 80’s, my mom took me to a color “expert.” It turned out I was a winter, too. Going with this knowledge in hand, Mom picked an iced blue fabric with which she made a gown for my upcoming concert. It was a really lovely dress that totally washed out my skin under the stage lights. In the pictures, you could see my black hair, some lip color, the dress and my instrument. It looked as if a ghost with a wig was filling out my clothes!

[@アシキン]

​@@MissCaraMintSo it looked bad on you? I'm not sure about icy blue. But icy lilac looks so great on me as a fellow winter. It's not a summer shade if it's icy. Summer shades are dusty rather than icy. I'm always careful in choosing light colors because a winter could only tolerates clear shades and not dusty shades, unless you're a cool winter which is borderline with cool summer. A cool winter could wear dusty pastels with no problems unlike any of the other winters.
