Our vision moves from very broad to more and more precise. We begin with drapes that work on all individuals of that Season to some degree, but the colors of the drapes increase in specificity of coloring to isolate Season, True or Neutral, beyond doubt. So early on, we might suspect that you'll be a True Season but it can't be confirmed till later. You keep right on going, Caroline. Our vision moves from very broad to more and more precise.

You could get more specific and say it's the red-violet of Winter but with less blue and a more yellow red, like a strawberry. I'm still thinking about this undertone question. I'm not sure if you can go beyond the neutral/cool/warm distinction and still call it undertone. I think it should work but some colour analysts might disagree.

But colour is beautiful and powerful too. Good question about variation in foundation colour among Seasons - the answer is ivory to ebony can share the same undertone, which is basically what PCA identifies, along with your perfect palette. So a True Winter has a red, or red-violet, undertone. But she could look like Anne Hathaway or Oprah. [WORDPRESS HASHCASH] The poster sent us '0 which is not a hashcash value.

You've written that there' a lot of variation in every seasonal group; hair, eyes, skin. And no way of telling the season by just loooking at someone. So I'm curious, how big of a difference, season-wise, have you seen with two people that could e.g. use the same foundation? By the way, I loved the video about the right peach color. Being able to see and compare just one color makes it easier to understand. Colors are a bit scary. Seems very logical, contrasting like that.
