I was finally analyzed and I’m True Winter. I’m not a stereotype of the season. Deep grey-blue eyes, ivory skin and medium dark ash brown hair. You could easily think I’m True Summer, but clearer colors and black look better on me. Or I in them, rather.

I have been told earlier that I’m an Autumn. But autumn colors make me look yellow and pale.

It will take time for me too to get used to the brighter cool shades. Or maybe it’s just a question of taste. I did wear a clear blue red, almost like magenta lipstick to church last Sunday though, and I was on stage, lol! It looked good on me but I was wondering if it was a bit over the top. That’s the feeling I get sometimes when getting used to these True Winter colors. Am I a bit too much? But then people never comment on it, or if they do, they say “wow” or “that color is great on you”. But for now I think I’ll stick to the sheerer shades with make-up.

I too love the boldness and the drama of the colors. I love drama in general. I’m a dramatic person. But I don’t show it easily, so to the outer world I just seem distant and cool. The people who know me better know that there’s a whole lot of drama in me! lol.

And I love my black!

In response to the comment by itari, requesting a photo of someone wearing the recommended colours, here is one of mine:

The eye colours are all from the Dior shadow quint #970, Stylish Move, with the darkest shade in the quint used as the liner. The lip colour is Dior Addict Ultra Gloss Flash #982, Black Tie Plum:

While I’ve never been typed under the Sci/Art system, I will say that as a Cool Winter, I couldn’t be happier with my contrast level, or with my colour palette! To me the Cool Winter colours evoke drama, luxury, and a diamond-like brilliance that I love.

I remember reading in my manual (not SciArt), that Bright Winters can have medium or medium-light warm blonde, I suppose because the contrast is then between the coolness of their skin’s undertone and the warmth of their hair (a contrast of temperature rather than of value).

As for Kylie, she reminds me of Heather Graham: young, and with what looks to be natural hair, they come across very much as Softs. At the same time, they seem to look great in those Bright colours. They both have light hair and eyes, though, and could equally be Light. But check out clips of Kylie as Charlene on Neighbours (there’s a clip of her first appearance) and Heather Graham in Twin Peaks and you’ll see what I mean.

I am so not someone who can analyze a person’s colors by photos. I find it too misleading. Still, some analysts like Lynda at http://www.thatsyourcolor.com are great at it.
I have ONE and ONLY ONE feeling about hair and its relation to your Season : ANY Season can have ANY hair color. The minute you start to generalize, you’re on the path to the wrong answer.
Liz Hurley – not sure. She’s like a lighter version of Hilary Rhoda, a model who certainly seems to have the drama to balance black. For me, it’s all about the drapes.

Interesting Chanel has a model very close to Hilary Rhoda’s coloring but seems even clearer.

This is probably one of my favorite looks on her.
