The 12 Color Seasons Explained: Which One Are You?

All 12 seasons are built from three sliders: undertone (warm ↔ cool), depth (light ↔ deep), and saturation (soft ↔ bright). Your position on each slider points to one season.

Each of the four classic seasons has a “True” center plus two neighbors that lean toward an adjacent season — which is how four becomes twelve.

Spring is warm and bright: Light Spring (delicate, warm-light), True Spring (warm and clear), and Bright Spring (warm with high contrast and vivid color).

Summer is cool and soft: Light Summer (cool-light and gentle), True Summer (cool and muted), and Soft Summer (low-contrast, misty, slightly neutral).

Autumn is warm and deep: Soft Autumn (muted, gentle warmth), True Autumn (rich, golden, earthy), and Deep Autumn (warm with dramatic depth).

Winter is cool and bright: Deep Winter (cool and dark), True Winter (icy and clear), and Bright Winter (cool with striking, high-contrast color).

Look at your overall contrast first: high contrast between hair, skin, and eyes points to Winter or Bright types; low contrast points to Summer or Soft types.

Then confirm undertone and depth. If you’re unsure between two neighbors, an AI analysis compares your features against each season’s signature and gives you the closest match plus your palette.
