I'm a winter - but have a neutral skin tone?

Have done my colours myself using charts on Pinterest (Colour Me Beautiful I think since it takes hair/skin/eyes into perspective) and am fairly obviously a winter (Anne Hathaway type colouring). However my skintone is neutral, not cool or warm - I can wear both cool and warm toned makeup as long as lipsticks are vivid and I stay away from browns and beiges. Am I still a winter?

Its up to you.

I like knowing which colours definitely suit me, how much of each colour I can wear and which are my best/worst ones. It saves so much time and money when shopping.

I turn 25 in February which IMO is a milestone birthday, perhaps a good present to ask for. I know what definitely doesn't suit me, and that some colours definitely do (eg red, royal blue, cool neutrals like black and navy, white), it's the awkward in between ones that stump me. I also find dressing for summer quite difficult.

OP you should read a bit about Bright Springs....can wear black ...a neutral season....suit some warm and some slightly cooler lip colours..they sit on the spring/winter border. As a bright spring myself I know I look great in tomato red lippy but can also do the cooler bright winter pinks

littlebaby like you I knew what definitely didn't suit me eg browns, yellows and what did (blues and greens) but couldn't work out the reds, pinks and purples. I've found it all great and feel so much more confident in my clothes.

I am not a Bright Spring - can't wear the orangey/honey colours or turquoise and there's no bright neutral/scarlet red which is one of my very best colours. Also far too much pink! Clothes-wise I would only wear a cool raspberry pink. Bright Winter looks perfect though.
