Freckles and rosacea

by Kate
(New Zealand )

Natural hair colour

QUESTION

I think I have a neutral undertone but it's hard to tell with light golden freckles and rosacea on my face. I have been typed as an Autumn and a Summer.

My veins are blue/green and my hair is light ash brown but looked almost ginger on the floor of the hair dressers. I have blue/grey eyes.


ANSWER

Hi Kate

I'm sorry to hear you're having so much trouble with your Color Analysis consultations when you were looking for a color direction. It's an expensive business if it goes wrong.

You appear to have gentle coloring with a soft contrast. As you've been determined both Autumn and Summer it tells me that Soft/Muted appears to be a common denominator here.

I would suggest that you look at the Soft/Muted Color Family to see if the colors resonate with you.

The Muted palette contains has both Warm and Cool undertones (neither are extreme) and it could bridge the gap for you. If you were working with a consultant that only used the Seasons you can slip through the net.

I hope that helps Kate,
kind regards
Pamela
