Colour analysis surprise result - anyone else?

100% convinced I was a winter, had colours done to figure out what the best bits of my winter pallette are, turns out I'm a deep/dark/blue autumn. In autumn colours I don't look like myself, it's very odd, my blue eyes turn hazel. Most of my wardrobe is blue! I always thought I looked like family member A, in new colours I look like family member B.

I did it for a bit of a tweak and refresh and it's provoked an existential crisis Grin

I agree that this is a middle-class, middle-aged thing to do and I can just wear what I want, and I'm overinvested and should give my head a wobble Grin

I must admit that I've nerve had it done professionally but doing quizzes I always come out spring or autumn and I look good in colours of both seasons. There aren't many I lol terrible in, I can wear yellow, mustard and orange which a lot of people cant.

@BatshitCrazyWoman

I was tonally analysed by CMB - I'm a Soft. I have neutral skin, can wear gold or silver, my eyes are blue/grey with beige flecks, honey blonde hair.

I like, and can wear, the majority of colours in my palette. I don't wear very warm colours (mustard) or very cool (shocking pink) - my colours are beautiful and muted - rust, olive, chocolate, claret, teal ... I wore most of them before being analysed to be honest!

Soft what? Your colouring sounds exactly like mine and I can’t work out what my season is. I usually wear autumn colours, but my skin tone is neutral rather than warm.

@GiveYourHeadAWobble I was Soft and Light. They don't do seasons anymore. I have colours you'd think are 'summer' and those that you'd think are 'autumn' in my palette.

Interesting, thank you!
