Hey you all,
I've been struggling to figure out whether I suit Deep Winter or Deep Summer, and frankly, it's been pretty confusing. I have dark hair and a skin tone that's hard to pin down—my undertone is pretty hard to read, so it's tough to tell which palette matches me best. Some of the Deep Winter colors like the rich navy blues and pure black really reveal a sharpness in my face, but then I notice that some of the more muted, dusty plums and greys from Deep Summer also make me look even and less harsh.
The difficult thing is that both palettes have overlapping cool, deep tones, so it's hard to see the fine differences in how they interact with my skin. Sometimes, when I test clothes or scarves from each palette, the lighting changes everything—I can look vibrant one moment and flat the next.
I did find some useful comparison charts online that highlight the key differences between Deep Winter and Deep Summer, especially around undertones and contrast levels, which helped a bit [url=https://color-type.top]color analysis online[/url] . But even with those, it's still a difficulty because my skin doesn't lean clearly cool or warm, and my dark hair and eyes don't really make it clearer either.
Has anyone else had this back-and-forth with these deep, cool seasons? How did you wind up deciding which palette fits you better? Are there specific subtle clues or tests that helped you figure it out without going for a full professional analysis? I'd truly appreciate any tips or personal stories so I can stop feeling stuck between these two palettes. Thanks a lot!
