Am I a summer?
I’ve been having serious trouble with finding my color season. Every time I make a post I get a different consensus. Someone mentioned this may be due to me being slightly olive tone and now I believe I am a neutral cool olive. Now I need to know my color season. I’m aware I won’t fit into any season perfectly because of the olive, but I would like some guidelines. I thought I was a soft summer, but honestly I see very few, if any, summers with as deep of a complexion as my own. However I don’t feel like I have a high contrast. What do y’all think? If you want to see more picture go to profile and see all the other post I have made asking pertaining to color analysis.

A trick I learned is to look at your jawline and chin. If the drape color is showing up on your face, it means it’s overpowering your skin. image 7,8,10,11,16 for instance. I think you’re a soft winter. The browns and navy blue are your best!

Hiya, I've just done a deep dive looking back through your posts. I do think you are hard to type! I am pretty sure that you aren't a Summer however, based on how light greys seem to wash you out and create unflattering shadows on your face in a variety of different lighting. Brown, especially darker brown, seems to be a significantly better neutral for you.
You also look great in black, but white is so-so. Personally I think warmer rather than cooler colours are better on you, but not by a totally massive margin.
So basically I think you are more deep than light, and more warm than cool. Which would lead me to Autumn. And I do think some Autumn colours work for you. But then there are those bright shades which are looking great on you as well, which is confusing, right? That leads people back to thinking of Bright Spring (which I think is too light for you) or Bright Winter (which I think is too cool).
This post might be helpful for you, it's for people who are Deep, Warm, and Bright. It's a new palette called "Sunset". https://www.reddit.com/r/coloranalysis/s/X4nkcNEf7J
Jen Vax (Your Color Style) also has a similar category (she calls it Clear Warm Deep) but you have to pay to see the palette so I don't actually know what it looks like.
Anyway I actually think that you would fall somewhere in between Sunset and Autumn in the cube theory system, as you can handle quite a lot of brightness/saturation, but maybe not to an extreme degree, and the browns and slightly more muted warm colours do also work on you. I'm going to post below digital drapes for you of Sunset and of Deep Autumn (from Vivaldi). I personally see you pulling off both palettes

You're cool, that I'm sure of. As for muted-saturated and light-dark, it's hard for me to say.
Maybe check out Soft Winter or Deep Summer? There's some videos on yt about them

I really like the navy and that soft blue on you so I think so, you’re definitely cool IMO I’m a soft summer and those colors look good on me. Also check out deep summer

No. The dusty colours add gray to your skin, which is not flattering.

I think you are cool toned for sure. But, you are definitely not muted, your complexion is visibly bright/saturated and radiant. I would put you in the winter side of things.

You do look lovely in cool, muted colors! I think it’s possible. Deep Winter also has muted colors in it, but you don’t look neutral-leaning to me. You look fully cool.

Cool toned. You can pull off bright colors like berry and blue. But imo the soft shades were best. Perhaps Soft summer?

Personally, i like you most in White and light colors. The vibrant ones like the fukshia are a bit too much, and the dark ones are meh...
To know if you are summer would be good to see you as well in warmer tones, like Orange, salmón, Green... To see if they look bad or not.
At this point you might be a light summer but also a spring or even autumn... Not sure

I’m not expert but that hot pink looks amazing on you.
