More about choosing your best colors.   

 

There are a few reliable ways to figure out your most flattering colors:

 

1. Determine Your Skin Undertone This is the foundation of color analysis. Look at the veins on your inner wrist:

  • Blue/purple veins → cool undertone

  • Green veins → warm undertone

  • Both → neutral undertone

Also notice how your skin reacts to sun — warm tones tend to tan easily, cool tones burn.

2. The Classic 4-Season System Once you know your undertone, you likely fall into one of these:

  • Spring (warm + light) – clear, golden skin; blonde/light brown/strawberry hair → best in warm, bright colors like coral, peach, golden yellow, warm greens

  • Summer (cool + soft) – pink/rosy or ashy skin; ash blonde or light brown hair → best in soft, muted tones like dusty rose, lavender, soft blue, mauve

  • Autumn (warm + deep/muted) – golden, olive, or freckled skin; red, auburn, or dark brown hair → best in earth tones like rust, mustard, olive, burnt orange, brown

  • Winter (cool + deep/high contrast) – deep, cool, or very fair skin; dark or stark hair → best in bold, saturated colors like true red, royal blue, black, white, emerald

3. The Draping Test (Most Accurate DIY Method)

  • Sit in natural light in front of a mirror, no makeup

  • Hold different colored fabrics or paper near your face

  • Notice which ones make your skin look glowing and even vs. washed out, sallow, or shadowy

  • The colors that make you look healthier = your best colors

4. Hair Color Clues

  • Cool hair (ash blonde, jet black, silver) → cool palette

  • Warm hair (golden blonde, red, auburn, warm brown) → warm palette

  • Neutral hair (medium brown) → flexible, lean toward your skin undertone

  • ​

5. Get a Professional Color Analysis A certified color analyst (often called a "personal stylist" or "image consultant") can do a formal draping session with professional swatches. This is the most precise option and can be worth it if you want a definitive answer.

​

Quick tip: Your neutrals matter most — the colors you wear near your face (tops, scarves, necklines) have far more impact on your complexion than bottoms or shoes.

Some more advise..

Replace the emotion of bitterness with kindness
and you will gain a youthful complexion.
All of our feelings--good or bad-- find an outlet in the
physical body through the organs, muscles, nerves and skin.
Charge yourself with springtime spirits by associating with optimistic people.  When a negative feeling comes, replace it with a positive thought.  You can only think one kind of thought as a time.  By invitiving the positive, you automatically dismiss the negative.  You cannot get ulcers when you smile.
 
A single cheery emotion---such as bouciness
and a sense of humor--is worth a thousand prescriptions.
