10 Color Families

QUESTION

In the free test I said I was fair/pale skin toned etc.. and came out Deep. However, in your description of understanding color, you said Deep starts from a beige to darker skin tone. Which is it?

ANSWER

Hi Michelle

Sorry if you're feeling confused. The free Color Analysis quiz has to be, of course, quite generic to cope with the majority of colorings so it can't be absolutely accurate.

Also, it will direct you to the nearest Tonal color family. I would imagine that you have quite dark eyes and strongly colored hair which is why it would have suggested Deep.

It sounds as though you could be more in tune with one of the Seasons which can be a bit more complex to work out for yourself.

I haven't completed a Seasonal Color Quiz yet but hope to do one soon. It's too confusing to try to to combine the two.

Take a look at the color characteristics for both the Autumn and also the Winter seasons and see if you can recognise your natural coloring.

Autumn has a Warm skin tone and Winter has a Cool skin tone but both will allow for a paler complexion.

Hope that helps.

kind regards
