Compare undertones, contrast levels, and styling strategies to discover which palette brings out your natural beauty
Deep Winter
Deep Winter (also known as Dark Winter) is a palette of depth, clarity, and coolness. It combines the coolness of Winter with the depth of Autumn. Your best colors are highly saturated, dark, and vivid.
Soft Summer
The Soft Summer palette is a nuanced and elegant collection of cool, muted colors. If you're a Soft Summer, your features have a gentle, dusty quality, and you shine in colors that are blended and soft, rather than bold and bright. Think of a tranquil, misty landscape – those are your colors.

All Characteristics
Deep Winter
Neutral-Cool Undertones
Your undertones are primarily cool, but with some neutral depth from the influence of Autumn. You need clarity and depth in your colors.
High Contrast
There is a striking contrast between your features (hair, skin, eyes). You shine in bold color combinations and look great in black and white.
Bold & Saturated
You look best in vivid and highly saturated colors. Avoid muted or dusty shades, as they can make you look washed out.
Soft Summer
Cool & Muted Undertones
Soft Summers have neutral-cool undertones. Your skin may have a mix of pink and yellow tones, but overall reads as cool and ashy, not warm or golden.
Low Contrast
There is a low level of contrast between your hair, skin, and eyes. Your features blend harmoniously, creating a soft and gentle appearance.
Graceful & Elegant
Your best colors are sophisticated and refined. You should avoid harsh, bright, or overly warm colors, which can overwhelm your delicate coloring.
