Color Analysis Quiz - Step 3: Warm and Medium - Bright or Soft

You selected WARM and MEDIUM. This means you have warm undertones with medium eyes, hair AND/OR skin.
This means that you wear warm medium colors well. However, there is one last step. What is your chroma? Are you Bright or Soft. Do you wear bright colors well or do they feel too strong on you?
If you know what your chroma is, then you know your color type! Select it below. If not, scroll down a bit to learn more about being soft or bright.

SOFT Explained
Muted or greyed colors are colors that have been muted. In art, the color on the opposite side of the color wheel can be added to mute a color. You can also add grey to a color. Adding a touch of green to a bright red will create a muted/greyed red. You can then add white or black to create light to dark versions of this muted red. Muted colors can have a grey/dusty/earthy quality to them.

Hi Jen,
I’ve followed your method for a while I recently changed my hair color to a dark chocolate color and I was wondering if that is going to change my results, I am a soft, warm, medium. My hair color was previously a light chocolate brown. I have golden hazle eyes and a warm undertone.

I don’t think so. Your darker hair will allow you to wear darker colors. Wear your SWM and then wear darker colors as you’d likeSent from my iPad
Hi Jen!
I’ve been watching your videos (they’re great), and it’s helped me confirm I have warm undertone, but I am struggling a little with knowing if I am bright or soft and I am not a 100% sure if I am medium or deep. I have golden light skin, and I can tan without getting pink, I have freckles, medium brown eyes and blonde hair that looks kinda like a copper blonde in the sunlight. My wardrobe has a variety of colors, I have pinks, blues, yellows, blacks and whites, but the last couple of years I’ve been really into neutrals (beige, camel, cream, etc) since I find them easier to combine. Should I considere myself soft or bright? Thank you so much for your help and sharing your knowledge.

Hi Virginia
I would say you are warm and medium. I can’t really say if you are bright or soft though. I’m guessing you are bright. Try wearing a bright tomato red vs a soft golden mustard.
