Omg I’ve always wondered what my season is but I couldn’t figure it out because I’m more of a neutral undertone. I knew I was soft something but didn’t fit into either autumn or summer. This helps so much, I feel like I’ve finally reached an answer. 😅❤

Most explanations I'd seen overlooked the possibility of being right in the middle. Thank you so much for making it much more clear!!

You really understand color. And your makeup and clothes are so harmonious. It’s a rare talent

It’s really helpful to see how colours are made up (brighter, warmer, muted) as that’s something which has aided clarity. I’m useless at seeing which colours are warm or cool beyond the obvious ones. I’m also useless at seeing which colours really suit me, beyond the obvious ones 😄

Thank you! I have exactly Kate Middleton’s colouring, including eye colour (green/blue/grey/gold) and thought I was soft summer but didn’t understand how easily I could do autumn also. You’ve explained this so well I can also do more contrasting colours as she can and now understand why I’m so light in winter and so tanned in summer. Red Violet is very flattering for this colouring. Great video! Really enjoy your content 🙏

Ahh this is a great video! I'm a soft summer but with a lot of neutral tones in my skin hair and eyes. Both of these palettes are colours I definitely gravitate toward!

Thank you for bringing such valuable knowledge and insights to everyone who's trying to find their own style. I'm a soft summer/autumn transition type and I've always been confused when the lighter colours tend to wash me out, now I know why. I wish you all the best and thank you again for amazing content and clarity in your explanations

That's why her last name is MIDDLEton

Very interesting analysis. Thank you. Hazel (grey green blue brown) eyes and golden brown hair combined with a cool winter-time but warm summer-time complexion is a common combination in the UK. I have always found it challenging to choose colours but your analysis helps me to understand why specific colours are so draining even though, technically, you think they should work. Nothing like the camera to know for sure if it is your colour. The lighting in retail shops can be very misleading.

This is the first video I found that highlights the transition type. I was always struggling to understand why the darker colours suit me better, even though I am a soft type. Thank you so much, your advice and explanation is priceless!

I just got my kitchener color consult results and I'm watching EVERYTHING about soft summer now. I saved up forever for my consult and I'm soo happy to finally know for sure. :)

I was just typed as a soft summer but the analyst told me to look into “shaded soft summer” as well. However, although close, I felt something was off! I can wear high contrast colors… and soft muted lighter shades do NOT look good on me… lol the way you described Kate… we are very close to the same…. I can wear colors from both Autumn and Summer… but I can also wear high contrast colors, contrary to my analysis that I had done! 🎉

Thank you so much for this! I found out I fit in both soft summer and soft autumn and now I understand how it's possible :)

Omg thank you!!!! I've been trying to find my season and keep feeling conflicted. A transition makes so much more sense

Thank you very much for this video. It has helped me a lot, as I was very confused because I did not fit 100% with any season, as my skin is neither warm nor cold, it is rather neutral. Now I'm almost sure that I'm in a transition between autumn and summer. Best regards!

Omg thank you so much for your videos this has helped me so much to understand my color season and in transition type. Yay 😀

Thank you so much for this video. I’ve been struggling for some time trying to figure out where I fit being a transition type myself. This is the first good explanation that feels right for me. Thank you again.

Thank you!! I’ve always been told my skin tone is neutral because I can wear gold and silver, though my best metal is rose gold

Your explanations are always sooo detailed and on point. I very much appreciate your time and effort and I love your channel

Your voice is so soothing and relaxing to listen to. Ty for the info and tips c=

Thank you for doing someone between soft summer and autumn. I have been struggling to pick one because both have colors that work for me. I also struggled with muted and bright and you showed how she can go between those color families as well. I thought it wasn't possible but now I know it is and now I know my season(s)

Thank you! I have low contrast between my gray-blue eyes, my neutral skin and light brown hair with cool roots that gets warmer and brassier at the ends due to the sun (it even goes really blonde in sun though I dye the ends to better blend the roots). I would type myself as a soft summer EXCEPT that the "dusty" colors look terrible and seem to make me look drab and sickly. Like Kate, I am tan in the summer but really pale in the winter. My contrast goes up in winter as my roots come in even darker and my contrast would always go way down in the summer when the sun would lighten my hair. Clear true saturated colors look better on me BUT not too clear and bright. For instance, the aqua of spring is totally wrong for me. Fuscia looks good on me, as well as greens of various depths, blues are better to be brighter if darker (like electric) and softer if lighter (baby blue). Pinks look good on me too and everyone says lavender is my color. It's all been very confusing because I didn't seem to fit any one season. Gold and Silver both work on me. It's also very hard for me to find foundation and concealer that works for me.

This video was so helpful! I’ve learned now that I’m a soft summer type (and soft autumn looks also good on me).

Thank you for this amazing video!

I recall when Catherine wore that sheer powder blue dress nobody commented on her... the comments were all about the dress. Yes it was not a flattering color for her.

this is an eye opener thank you!

This video opened my eyes. Thank you very much for the insightful information! Personally, I look great in sky blue or powder blue (and any blue around that wavelength), red (only very dark muted reds make me look kinda dull) and I always liked myself in softer black eg black silk which has this slight silvery sheen to it. Mid blueish grey also works. I also look really nice in fucshia/magenta colors especially in summer when I tan. I thought I am True Summer but I was so confused I can pull off such vivid colours like Barbie pink and even muted orange. Strangely enough these are some of the colours in dresses that made people stop me on the street to ask me where I had bought those outfits from. Yet I went and dyed my hair blonde that ends up looking orange under the sun because my natural hair is dark reddish brown. All this because I wanted to look sunnier and I disliked the greyness in my face (grey eye circles) which can be emphasised by certain muted colours. Now I see how unnecessary this was when I could just keep choosing between the two palettes depending on season and occassion like Kate Middleton does! No need to limit ourselves to a certain popular style (eg blonde, tanned, muted) to be attractive. We could stay within our natural colouring but take some risks and wear those vivid colours that suit our complexion!

I think your knowledge and explanation is superior.

I was so confused, with my amber-ish eyes, neutral skin tone and ashy brown natural hair. It wasnt till I took a really close look into my iris and hair roots. I literally have gold specs in both my eyes and my hair although ashy brown, has also gold flare when hit with direct natural sunlight. I guess that makes me definitely a soft autumn.

This is me🎉 I have been so confused by my season for so long

Best explanation ever!!! 🩰Thank you.

Very Illuminating! I’m natural auburn & green eyes … and my skin is ivory rose in winter and pale olive tan in summer. Which means medium-to-high contrast, but spring colours are WAY too bright and most autumn colours too rich. Anything muted, semi-warm and low intensity works. Black works, but graphite & coffee/chocolate is better

This is so helpful. Can you please let us know some more celebrities with this mixed type to use as a reference?

I really appreciate this video. I’ve struggled to identify my palette. I seem to be somewhat muted but with contrast. The true and bright colors are a bit too strong for the delicate balance of me, but the really muted colors make me look gray. I can carry muted depth (can’t be too light or pastel) and I can carry slightly more chroma..it’s an in between place. Very similar to what is discussed here. I can carry brighter chroma when my skin is paler, but the slightly muted colors work well when I’m tan. Some colors from several palettes work but not all.

Oh my lord you finally made everything make sense. I had narrowed myself down to being a soft summer except the fact that some very pigmented bright colors really make my complexion look radiant, so I have been very confused. I'm definitely not a winter or autumn as those are too heavy for me, unless it's the muted autumn colors. In color photos I seem to have a muted appearance (brown hair, freckles, prominent dark under-eye circles & irises with rings of yellow and grey-blue) but in black and white photos I look like I have high-contrast. This "in-transition" type has to be the reason.

Love the video! Soft Summer here for sure. Please consider turning the microphone recording volume up if possible. 🙏

Wow everything is so clear now

This just explained me. I used a Korean analysis app just last night and it said I'm muted Summer with a warm something or another. Basically what u just said. 😊

I'm not sure if I missed something but I don't understand why being an in transition type makes it so you can wear bright colors when the two seasons you're between are both soft?

This was so helpful! Is it possible, to be in between autumn and winter? Sometimes I have the feeling, that the contrast matters more than the color itself 😄 thank you for your videos!! 💕

Yes! I am neutral. Shaded soft summer, I think. My best metal is pewter, secondly champagne gold (both dull rather than bright and shiny), skin leans slightly cool - lipsticks need a mauve cast but eyes are green and gold so mossy grayish green is good rather than emerald tones. Almost any colour near the middle (no extremes of cool or warm, light, bright) is okay as long as it is MUTED. I don't wear yellow, orange not great either. I still like black but can see it is probably not the best.

I think this answers what I am now, it can be conflicting I didnt know you could be right in the middle. I have dark golden blonde hair which is very warm, but I have cool bluish undertones in my skin my eye colour is turquoise i think would suit both of the palletes but slighty swaying towards soft summer.

well, is this what i am? I was thinking i have a neutral undertone more towards cool, because my lips and cheeks are pinkish, so i was trying to use more summer/winter palettes, and letting my hair grow into its ashy tone instead of coloring it blonde again, because i thought blonde wasn't helping my natural contrast and complexion. But the other day i wore a rainbow jacket that i cant actually figure if its warm or cool, it has both, but my coleague complimented me and said the colors i've been using don't compliment me, and then i showed her pics with my blonde hair and she said it enlighened me. And then I also wore a beige pajama from my bf and it made me glow... and i was like.... "am i autumn"??? i never thought i was autumn. Like, i have blue grey eyes and ashy brown hair (used to be blonde when a child) so I thought summer. but the fact is that my blue eyes have a yellow/brown collarette, and the beige was really making it stand out, and the skin looked more even... I'm going crazy trying to figure it out on my own, but I still can't pay for an analysis ToT

I think I fall in the middle. But it’s still a bit difficult to pinpoint exactly.

I have the same colouring as Catherine. Thank you

I keep getting analyzed as both of these, but cannot seem to narrow it down to one or the other because it seems to depend on the day or the lighting lol. Hopefully your video helps by the time I am finished! I’ve been trying to redo my wardrobe with colors that work for me and it has been so hard to figure out!

Oh my God, this might be my answer. I have very cool skin, but my eyes are amber-green (orange-green) and my hair are light brown with orange tones wery visible in the sun. I couldnt find me in any of the types.

Your presentation is quite good and sophisticated but leaves me with more questions than I had before. I always thought I was an autumn but was virtually analyzed to be a soft summer and then a true summer. Do you use draping like other analysts do?

Oh wow. You look gorgeous

I also feel I am right in the middle with complexion and hair close to Kate's. How do you know which bright colors you can wear and why? I've watched several times but I can't figure that part out. Can you clarify this please?

You inspired me do you think a transitional type between soft summer and bright winter is possible? If so is it possible for a very dark blonde.

I have the same features as kate so i finally found my palette!!!

I don't understand.. Doesn't this just show that Kate Middleton is a Winter? All the colors you showed that she looked best in -including the bright yellow - are True Winter. x)

Its strange you say the dusty colours dont work on her. I thought they were much more flattering, although they didnt make as much overall visual impact, being so muted. She looks delicate and pretty in them though, and the bolder colours seem to age her, in my opinion.

Have you ever looked at the YourColorStyle system? Bright/Soft, Warm/Cool, Light/Medium/Deep. Soft Autumn is Soft Warm Light, and Soft Summer is Soft Cool Light. Soft is created by adding grey to the Bright color wheel, and I don't think that is flattering to women as they turn grey. I would be interested in your opinion as a trained artist. I believe the YourColorStyle lady also has formal arts training. Colour theory is fascinating. Colour has a huge impact on our well-being.

Basically, she needs pure hues- no matter cool or warm, they must be bold and saturated. Wouldn’t this make her a clear winter or clear spring?

Wow. Besides all the great info, you would be an instant success if you did an ASMR channel!! ❤❤❤

Thinking I was a bright spring😂yes but when I take all makeup off I am muted! Grey brown hair with soft highlights both grey and golden and neutral skin leaning golden in summer but pink in winter(see trough) I wear all dusty colors but dark brown dark warm colors and warm like mustard colors drag me down…I have to wear grey or dark grey so I’m then I’m between soft summer and soft autumn leaning more autumn🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

I think im inbetween soft summer and soft autumn because i was born at the end of august

I was told not to wear shiny and reflective material as they can be overwhelming and distract from a soft type

So there's Soft Summer, Summer-Autumn Transition, Soft Autumn, Warm Autumn, Deep Autumn, Autumn-Winter Transition, Deep Winter, Cool Winter, Bright Winter, Winter-Spring Transition, Bright Spring, Warm Spring, Light Spring, Spring-Summer Transition, Light Summer, Cool Summer? Have you read about the Color Breeze system from Pretty Your World?

Great video! Are you a soft autumn?

I think I am like Kate. Which explanes why ni sezon makes sanse for me.

Which type are you? :)

Fab

I am confused! I don’t know if i’m soft summer or deep winter 😂 Or soft autumn 😂 Can somebody help me with this?

So, Kate Middleton is more like a Middle-tone?

Isn't Kate Middleton a "cool summer"-type?

why do you talk about colours and shoe black and white pictures?

I would say she’s a winter.

Is someone asleep in your house? Your always taking so soft as if not wanting to be loud.

I can’t hear you well. Please either speak up or move the microphone closer, ideally both.
