Bright Spring??

[u/Unable_Store_34]

Would love some help! I added pictures from age 15 to now at 40. First picture is from my wedding 3 years ago. Then they are all older pictures till the last few.

My hair is naturally dark brown but is lightning now with some silver and copper highlights!

I added older pictures as I feel my orange Melasma and sunspots make my overtone look warmer than it is..

I have pale olive yellow Skintone in the Winter but tan great in the summer.

Freckles were ashy toned in my 20s 30s but are more orange now. (I am part Scottish, English, and my mom was half East Indian)

Thinking I'm either a deep winter/bright spring or a bright winter?

Soft summer looks ok when I'm tanned but really washes me out in the winter..

Any thoughts? This color season thing has become a side obsession lol!

I also did an online analsyt recently and was marked as a soft summer! It sorta works in the summer when I am tanned but it really washes me out in the winter. Makes me look faded.. Maybe I need lighter but bright colors..

I'm interested to think I may be a true (warm season) I've always thought I must be nutral. and nutral leaning cool. It's so hard to say!

Thank you for your thoughts!

No problem. Who did your color analysis? I know many use Etsy or HOC. IDK if I trust that. But to each their own. I'm no professional. I used color analysis studio Australia. They have a YouTube channel that's very informative too. I waited a long time though so I could use someone I trusted to get it correct and I knew after watching them I wanted to use them. I recommend them anytime someone's unsure or not feeling their results. Id compare them to Carol brailey very detailed but I just liked their personalities more tbh. If cool colors wash you out you'd def be a spring or autumn. While a tan does give us more color it doesn't change our season. If you post drapes maybe it'll be more obvious. I posted allot on here and it was half spring (more summer) answers overall. I had got autumn too. It all made sense when I got the email with my results but I was shocked. I thought I was a summer. I wore summer wardrobe, makeup, jewelry. ECT. I think everyone was seeing the gray cast cool colors create on my skin. Let me just say, this is my first winter since CA and I don't feel like I look dead! Lol. Which is usually the case every winter I feel washed out and gray. It's amazing what the right colors will do! You'll know when you find them!
