What seasonal color analysis is
Seasonal color analysis matches you to the colors that work with your natural coloring — your skin, hair, and eyes. The right colors make skin look clearer and eyes brighter; the wrong ones can make you look tired or washed out, even in a great outfit.
It looks at three things:
- Undertone — whether your coloring leans warm (golden) or cool (pink or blue).
- Depth — how light or deep your overall coloring is.
- Clarity — whether you suit clear, saturated color or softer, muted color.
Those land you in one of four seasons, and each season splits into three, for twelve in all.
The 12 color seasons
- Spring — warm and clear. Light Spring, True Spring, Warm Spring.
- Summer — cool and soft. Light Summer, True Summer, Soft Summer.
- Autumn — warm and muted. Soft Autumn, True Autumn, Deep Autumn.
- Winter — cool and high-contrast. Deep Winter, True Winter, Bright Winter.
How to answer the questions
The tool asks about six things. A few tips for honest answers:
- Check in daylight, without makeup, near a window rather than under warm indoor bulbs.
- Vein test — look at the inside of your wrist. Mostly blue or purple veins suggest a cool undertone, mostly green suggests warm, and a mix suggests neutral.
- Jewelry — if gold looks better on you than silver, you probably lean warm; silver, cool; both, neutral.
- Hair — pick your natural color, not a dye. If you're going gray, pick your current natural shade.
You can reveal a result after one answer, but the more you fill in, the more reliable it is.

Questions
- Is this color analysis really free?
- Yes. It runs in your browser, takes about 30 seconds, and doesn't need an account or an email address.
- How accurate is an online color analysis?
- It's a good starting point. It relies on how you describe your own coloring, and lighting or dyed hair can throw that off. An in-person draping session in daylight is still the most thorough way to confirm your season.
- What's the difference between 4-season and 12-season color analysis?
- The 4-season system places you in Spring, Summer, Autumn, or Winter. The 12-season system splits each of those into three by depth and clarity, so the palette you get fits you more closely. This tool uses the 12-season system.
- What if I dye my hair?
- Answer with your natural hair color. Seasonal analysis is about your natural coloring, and a palette chosen for dyed hair can clash with your skin.
- Can my color season change?
- Your undertone stays the same, but your coloring can soften over time, especially as hair grays. If your hair has changed, take the quiz again with your current natural shade.
