The Winter color palette is cool and vibrant.
To help you determine your personal color palette, refer to this post which includes a handy flowchart!
- If you are a Winter you have a lot of depth to your coloring and a bluish or pinkish undertone to your skin. Some olive-yellow undertones may be visible but to a lesser extent than the cool undertones.
- Your eyes are intense and you have a high contrast between your hair color, eye color and skin tone or an overall deep look with olive to black skin, dark eyes and black-brown hair.
- Winter coloring is very vivid, which is why you shine in black and other colors that have a strong jewel quality to them. You will see these tones appear over and over again in the winter color palette.
- Your hair is typically very dark, ranging from deep medium brown to jet black. As you age your hair will turn a grey or salt and pepper color. In some instances a Winter can have blonde hair, but it is very cool and almost white looking.
Some examples of celebs who are Winters:
As a Winter you will want to avoid wearing weak pastels and warm, dusty, muted colors which will appear drab on you, leaving you looking washed out.
Sometimes as Winters mature, their coloring may fade subtly, shifting their best matches slightly towards the Summer palette.
This is a very simplified text book example of Winter coloring. Color Analysis is not an exact science so it’s impossible to place every individual into just these four boxes.
Not every Winter will look like the celebrities shown above. Every Winter is different just as every person is unique.
