Colour Season Finder

Answer in natural daylight without makeup. The four-season system sorts colours by warmth (yellow vs blue base) and depth/clarity — find where you sit and you know which shades will make your skin look rested.

How this is worked out

Veins, metals, sun reaction and the white test point to warm or cool undertone. Hair, eyes and contrast point to deep/bright or light/soft. Warm + light/bright = Spring; cool + light/soft = Summer; warm + deep/soft = Autumn; cool + deep/high-contrast = Winter. Deep skin tones often land in Autumn or Winter — both have gorgeous palettes.

Questions people ask

I got a season I did not expect.

Self-tests are a starting point. Drape two tops — one warm, one cool — under daylight and trust what evens out your skin and softens shadows.

Does this apply to deep and Indian skin tones?

Yes. Undertone matters more than depth: a deep skin can be warm, cool or neutral. Many South Asian complexions are warm or olive-neutral, which often reads as Autumn.
