Comprehensive breakdown of each palette

True Winter

Purely Cool Undertones

True Winters have distinctly cool, blue-based undertones. There is absolutely no warmth in your coloring, and you need pure, clear colors to look your best.

High Contrast

There's dramatic contrast between your features. You can handle the most intense color combinations and look stunning in high-impact looks.

Vivid & Pure

You shine in colors that are clear and intensely saturated. Any hint of warmth or mutedness will dull your natural brilliance.

True Autumn

Warm & Rich Undertones

True Autumns have distinctly warm, golden undertones. Your skin has a golden or peachy quality that comes alive with rich, warm colors.

Medium to High Contrast

There's good contrast between your features. You can handle both rich, saturated colors and deeper, more intense shades.

Bold & Earthy

You look best in colors that are rich and saturated. Cool or light colors can make you appear washed out, while warm, intense colors bring out your natural richness.
