Colour analysis for darker skin tones?

[MooMinCow]

Have been reading a few threads and thinking about trying it but wondered if any darker skinned/Asian MN's had tried this and if it worked? I had a lady come into where I work the other day telling me I was a 'winter' but isn't that cool toned? (I have golden brown skin and dark brown hair?)

TBH I am a bit sceptical about the whole thing working for darker skin tones and brings images of Bridget Jones' mum to mind (it was her mum who kept going on about 'having her colours done' wasn't it?)

Any experiences before I chuck £90 down the drain....?

Thanx

I'm not Asian but have had colour analysis so know how it works and would say that it is quite probable that you are a "winter".

If you have blue undertones to your skin and the veins on the underside of your wrist look blue then you are cool (winter or summer). Yellow undertones and green veins mean you are are warm (autumn and spring).

Well, BonyM my veins definitely look green so my skin is warm toned? But I think I look awful in gold jewellery and warm colours like yellow, orange, red... thanks for the link though, v. useful!

Ah - go get it done properly. Had mine done by House of Colour and it was great - has revolutionised the way I shop, I immediately discount anything that's not "my" colours so saves lots of time and everything I have goes with everything else!
