Colour analysis
Autumn or Winter?
This is your palette
Autumn and Winter are both on the deeper side of colour analysis. The difference is temperature: every Autumn palette is warm, every Winter palette cool.
How to tell them apart
- Look at the veins on the inside of your wrist in daylight: green-leaning veins point warm, blue or purple ones point cool.
- Hold gold and then silver jewellery against your skin: whichever makes it look even and clear, rather than sallow or grey, is your side.
- Compare a warm ivory with an optic white under your chin: warm colourings come alive in ivory, cool ones in the cleaner white.

How to find your palette
Colour analysis reads three things in your colouring: warm or cool, light or deep, clear or soft. The quiz asks about your eyes, hair and skin, looked at in a mirror by a window in daylight. It never photographs or scans your face, and the palette it finds is yours to keep.
