Color Analysis Quiz - Step 1
Welcome to the Your Color Style Color Analysis Quiz!
This quiz will ask you about 3 to 4 questions based on your answers.
You're going to learn a lot about the Your Color Style methodology as you move through this quiz. I felt compelled to explain a few things when asking the questions, because I don't want to assume you know what I'm talking about. :-)

Hi Jen-I really like your color system, but am having a hard time determining my chroma. I have medium ash brown hair, grey/grey-hazel eyes and my skin is neutral to cool medium beige. I am medium and cool but not sure if I’m soft or bright. Light pastels wash me out as does black/white. Sometimes I feel great in bright colors and other times it is too much. Sometimes I feel great in greys and other times I feel washed out. Ugh. I’ve been through a ton of your content and still can’t decide. I’d really like to get your color and neutral swatches but want to make sure I pick the right one. Any suggestions?

Hi
Ashy brown hair and grey-green eyes with medium beige skin (low contrast) is very common for a Soft Cool Medium. I believe that is the right color palette for you
Jen
Hi! I can’t figure out if I’m light or medium. I have dark blonde hair, blue eyes, and very pale skin. All the examples of light are very light blonde hair.

Hi
You sound like you would still be light.
Jen
I think I am Bright and cool but not sure if medium or deep???. I really suit black/white, jewel colours and metallics. I suit pastels if they are very clear. i do not suit earthy colours. only khaki and brown shades if they are cool beige, chocolate brown or dark khaki not olive or sage. I have quite dark hair with chocolate tones. I tan quite easy but can burn with dark hazel eyes (not brown) ..slight yellow tone to my skin.

Your Color Style replied:
You sound like bright cool and deep to me. BCD usually can wear the lighter clear icy colors in addition to the jewel tones and black.
Jen
I’m a natural blonde (most recently it was very ashy blonde before I went red), and when I spend a lot of time in the sun my hair becomes golden blonde. my skin is olive toned, and my eyes are hazel green. Not sure where I fall. Medium?

Your Color Style replied:
Yes, I would choose green
I still can’t really tell, so my hair is really dark brown almost black but has a slightly redish tone in it. My skin is light and my eyes aren’t brown neither green, more like an inbetween.

Your Color Style replied:
It looks like you’re on step 1. Choose Deep.
