I got a PROFESSIONAL color analysis in Korea + how to do yours at home! 

I’m an Autumn mute and second rank was spring light

I did the test using the app and it said my number one was summer mute (cool) and my number two is the one my grandma said I was when I did the Avon color testing as a teenager: winter dark (cool).

Autumn mute (Warm)

Could you share where you did your colour analysis please ? Not particularly interested in DIY stuff as I tried through apps and it did not work for me…

winter vivid with summer soft makeup

What is avon?? How to be that position? Im interest😭

I think it’s a makeup company, pretty sure it was quite popular in the 80s??

Avon started out as makeup company, originally had women going door to door selling makeup thru the Avon catalog (same as Mary Kay comp).... you'd order from the catalog thru your Avon lady... Avon probably died out early late90s 2000s

​@erikad0511 I don't hear much from it right now, but it must've been a thing during the early 2010s, my mom was involved with Avon when I was real young.

@@lestatsgirlypop I checked outta curiosity, and surprising to me, Avon is actually still around today and making good money... makes me wonder what they're still selling and is it actually good?

Am not!, I can tell the differences!. I trained my eye to see it and now I can.

@@SR-mv2mf how ?

only men are colorblind

@@raghadmasalmeh197you need to be familiar with the color wheel and how colors are a mix of other colors.

That moment when you’re blind and wat

Whats the color analysis lady's name? Or how do we book her! Thank u

Hi where is this :) ? I want to book a colour analyst when i go to Korea next month. Thank you 😊

Hey! Whats the place called?

What’s the lady’s name !! Omg !!

cocory color

I know it’s so hard in this economy to save money, but I’d say save what you can, and do it- I saved all my money to go to Korea and it took 3 years but it was soooo worth it. money is only worth what you spend it on!

How much did it cost for the analysis?

I don't get why everyone wants their analysis being done by a korean tho. This analysis is an old western thing (it was created for classic Hollywood actresses if I'm not wrong), and even my country has those services (I just have to go to a bigger city).

@@ZurditaDinamita I know it is, but the Korean ones are way more soothing and gentle. My mom and pretty much her whole family actually got the analysis done back in the day, so I know it exists here too. It's just that it's not only the analysis that I like, but the way they do it and that seems to be a very Korean thing.

Black thankfully looks good on everyone. Color analysis is just for fun and is not very accurate if you like dark colors wear them

pastel goth style could be cool inspiration in that case (both are not the same, i know).. and can be just as moody!!

GIVE ME YOUR PASTEL

The colours you look “best” in, according to colour analysis, are the ones that will look the most harmonious on you. If you wear certain other colours, you will look more alternativ, rough or dramatic. Most people don’t have black in their “good” colours. It will make them look pale or make their face stand out less, etc. Which may or may not be something that you actually want, for example when dressing emo. So, not wearing your “best” colours, is not necessarily a bad thing:)

You're the opposite of me. I'm bubbly and like pastels too much. But then I got winter cool as my color. My whole world becomes depressed nowadays 😌. I pinned a lot of winter colored style clothings on Pinterest after the analysis, but still couldn't bring myself to feel happy about it. The quality of my pictures improved too much after I started to wear my colors, but my heart, sniff, my heart, doesn't seem to feel that happy even when I look much prettier and younger nowadays 🥲.

You should do some research and try to experiment with clothes, like try to see if you have warm or cool undertones. You probably are a light but it seems like you have to figure out if you are warm (so spring bc it’s warm) or you are cool (summer bc it’s cool) See if you have more yellow or blue in your skin, see if gold/rose gold or silver suits you the more

I went to the exact shop that Miki went. The analyst actually mentioned that there are different versions of colour analysis. Specifically mentioned that Japan adopted a different system. So maybe instead of focusing on the season names , try to focus on the colour palette of each system suggested. And try the colours out yourself ~

@@momolu1402​​⁠yes I was going to say this too! Korea also uses a different set of colour palettes for their 12 seasons to the western 12 seasons. Here you have summer whiteish, summer pale and summer mute whereas in the western 12 seasons system it’s light summer, soft summer and true summer. Look at the palettes they give you and see what similarities there are between them. The fundamental thing here seems to be whether you’re a cool tone (summer) or a warm tone (spring). Doing some basic tests to work that out by holding up clearly warm vs cool shades to your face should help

To say you are a warm spring light is all redundant! A spring is warm and light, AND clear. YOu could be a "light" if they mentioned summer. You are primarily one and secondary of the other, which means you can wear some of the Secondary palette to complete your color palette due to the fact some of those colors that are not great from your primary palette would be deleted. What colors are you eyes?? Curious. Keep us posted!

I recommend watching a color analysis video from Color analysis studio RU-vid channel. They’re based in Australia and their explanation is soooo much easier to understand and you can clearly see the difference of each season. I’ve watched several videos from Korean color analysts and they’re all so confusing to me lol. Hopefully after watching their video you’ll be able to discern exactly your best season and of course learn more about Color analysis

I agree, the lavender is too cool and muted for a spring.There is no way she'd suit it so well if she was truly a warm season and based on how amazing she looks with the cool tones on her left shoulder at 0:58 and 1:35. The analyst calls the cooler tones at 1:35 spring which confused me. Then again I'm not a professional lol

​​@@silverhiver at 0:58 she's using the cool but *spring* tones, so they're warm really. Spring also has blues, violets... But all of them have a drop of warmth (yellowness). In the end, she is a light spring, meaning her main trait is lightness. So, even if her skin is warm, she can "steal" cool tones (like that lavender) as long as they're light.

@@BingsuDraws it’s up to her) I am an artist, I’ve studied color analysis though

Well said! Her hair color is PERFECT that way that it is, and it's cool BTW. AND brighter darker colors are for her; however, she seems very romantic personality, so I would chart her in her color in a way that she could wear them well, and her makeup would need to be softened to accommodate the romantic personality. Good call!!

Her hair is cool toned so autumn colors would look the worst.

@@Lirin I didn’t say that autumn color would look good on her, I said there‘s a clash… That happens when a person changes hair color but the real undertone remains the same. I agree, she’s a definitely cool season

she doesn't like it. that's it.

it’s kinda confusing when you do color analysis by yourself ngl 😂 I am bright winter and light summer according to this app 😵‍💫 Kinda jealous cuz autumn colors are definitely don’t look good on me 🥵

There are true summers, but summers are the rarest of the four. What colors are your eyes? There are NO brown-eyed summers! I was the national trainer for Color Me Beautiful and agree with you about hair color, natural. Your hair color sounds too dark to be autumn, and perhaps summer. I would have to see. You are also right, that something does not "feel" right!. The key is to figure out what it is. You could be a combination of 2 seasons. Keep me posted;-)

@@apgeiger4143 my eyes are green with some grey to them (although in some lights they are closer to a cat eye colour - they have always shifted between grey green and yellow green even since I was a child) , my hair is dark brown with no warm tones but isn’t as dark as a pure black. I’m not high contrast and can’t wear black without looking washed out and sick so I’m not a winter, and I’m definitely not an autumn and I know spring colours don’t look good on me. Looking back through historic photos, summer colours are the ones that seem to look best on me. I did draping at home with cool and warm toned plain fabrics in white, grey and blue (the only ones I had available). In all of them the cool tones worked best with my skin with the warm tones highlighting imperfections, making my under eyes look very dull and making any chin definition disappear.

​@@apgeiger4143wow that is way too outdated no brown eyed summer really😒

Yep REALL! No, it's not outdated. you can't change Science to fit your narrative. That's like saying 2+2 = 5 now because it's "in". Color Analysis is a science. NOT an opinion, it is about facts. Now Artistically, what you do with Science is another whole process. And yes, artistically, you should be personalizing your client's image. But you have to include the clothing style of the person, body type, and face shape. The whole picture, to truly create a professional image for a person. How you chart the colors is another way you can adjust the palette to the person. There are different processes out there. Find one that works and makes sense to you. I am not being a jackass about this, but I have been doing this for years and done thousands of people, and there is so much misinformation, mis analysis out there, that I can't stay silent any longer.

There are definitely true summers. They are just very rare. They are; however, extremely beautiful. And when they are draped in their colors, it's so obvious. Keep in mind, there are NO dark brown-eyed spring or summers! Scientifically can't be accurate.

What a rude thing to say. The stylist is supposed to blend in with the background so she doesn’t interfere with the analysis. The red lips are just for communication.

me too, she skipped the dark shades because she doesnt look cute in them but actually they suit her character the most and in soft colors she looks weird like an adult in kid colors

Hmm, I personally think she looks more in Harmon in darker colors, but yeah, as long as she happy with the result, it's all that matters.

Yeah I agree

I was about to say the same thing.

Not to mention the hair color which doesn’t seem to suit her at all

Honestly, I think you both chose wrong colors for yourself.. I think you both have cool undertones)) Changing hair color doesn’t change your skin undertone…

@@dreamchaser7603her natural hair color is cool toned, so that means she’s got cool overtone but if you’ll ask a color consultant they’ll tell you cool overtone doesn’t mean you have cool undertones

So if it's reflecting what does that tell us? And if it's absorbing into the chin what does that tell us? Curious on what that means.

So if it's reflecting colour on us its not our best and if it is absorbed it's good...im trying to figure mine out for long time I love white, sage, pinks and coral lips, I don't love grey I just can't rely on camera pics though which is a more accurate representation of our skin with eye comfort shield turned on I look warmer and when disabled I look cooler..I would say I'm medium level intensity ive grey streaks now so ive softened

Your skin absorbs or reflects color. When your skin "color it makes everything "bad" more prominent. When your skin "" color, then everything "bad" is less prominent. particularly testing between Spring and Summer. A good color to visualize this, when testing between spring and summer, is peach versus pastel pink. If you place the two colors on top of each other, and quickly pull down the top color, the face will brighten or become drained of color. Remember, absorbing, which is the drain of color look, is not what you want. So if one looks better in the peach, then they are a spring. If they look better in the pastel pink, then they are most likely a summer or are cool. Just because a gray is in a palette, does not mean you look good in it; however, you can still be that palette. In fact, the gray I added to Spring was a dove, gray. I removed the grays from Autumn, because, I may have seen one Autumn in the thousands I have analyzed, maybe one looked good in it. They flowed into summer. I do a charting system that identifies your very best colors, wear as a solid anywhere on the body, or as a color to mix with other best colors from your palette, or those that should be worn in smaller, accent colors, OR, as a solid below the waistline only. I think you are giving too much attention to your skin tone. In face, unless you are obviously golden, warm, or porcelain, white skin, you should look at your primary color. We used to do foundation tests to determine your season, but I found out early in my career, that hair is often, the most prominent determination factor. Again, many factors go into the choice. But that is why many times winters as they age, lose pigment in skin and eyes, and can go autumn if their hair is colored, or softened. Hope this helps. Unfortunately, there are many myths out there because of a lack of proper training. For example, if your skin is warm you are warm, if it is cool, you are cool. Not always the case. And don't look at your veins. UGH, that is the most ridiculous thing I have heard. For Caucasians, if you look at the under wrist it's going to be lighter and look cool. Why? Because white is a blue base color. And it is NOT just about the skin. Look at the skin hair and eyes combined. What's the story? The BIGGEST mistake an analyst makes is making autumn, a summers. I was guilty of this early on in my career. But not for long, I caught it quickly, because I was misanalyzed as a summer and I am really a spring. @@kellyizo8348

When I look at my skin hair and eyes combined I always feel I need to add colour on cheeks or lips because I am blended bit again age we lose pigment I'm wondering is it that

What do you mean you loose pigment?@@kellyizo8348

Consultant told her what she wanted to hear! This was not a great analysis at all.

I was thinking that too

she still looked gorgeous regardless. and plus she probably didnt want to bring attention to herself as the whole point was to find colors for her client .

maybe she didnt want the colours of her own clothes to interfere with her client's analysis?

she probably doesn’t care 💀

Work uniforms are not supposed to be your best colors 🤷🏻‍♀️ Specially when you work in beauty and your goal it's to make your client feel like the star of the show.

That isn't true, she disagreed quite a few times...

Definitely agree with you she don’t look professional and she definitely can’t work with darker skin tone

Totally agree. I always ask my clients their opinion but it doesn't change my opinion of what I see. I want to make sure my client is happy with the result, but not at the expense of getting it so wrong! This is the worst colour analysis I have ever seen!!

Where is the app, please?

@@apgeiger4143 it explain on 14:39. Search color lover lab co and check the app with diamond icon.

You are so right. There are opinions and there are facts. It's hard for non-analysist, and for us too I guess, to not like our personal tastes influence our input to the client.s Hard to do. I did it earlier in my career.

did you just reply to your own comment im confused lol

You sound like you are dramatic in personality; therefore, you can literally wear anything. You just have to adjust yourself to the situation. Dramatics can be intimidating, so be sure modify in dress and behavior when needed! Enjoy!!
