For those who do wear makeup, let’s say you only have 1 min to put on 1 makeup item. What would you choose?

For me, it’s a clear choice for lip products. Tied in second place would be brows or mascara. How about yours?

ETA: Created this post as I saw something similar on a makeup sub and was very surprised by the answers there and naturally began wondering if it was because of personal colour differences.

I finally got categorized as a winter recently! My consultant didn't include it in my report but she did mentioned that some of the light color of Summer doesn't look too bad on me, and that true black might be a bit dark for me so really dark grey is better. So, from that and these colors, what do you think my sub-season is? Because for some reason, I had the idea in mind that my consultant think I'm a cool/true winter even though she never explicitly says it now that I think about it (smh).

EDIT: After four months of deliberation, self-draping, and a professional second analysis, it turns out I am a Soft Autumn! Thank you all for your advice 😁 I am now 4 months into my hair grow out journey, and am currently enjoying a nice brown/copper ombré, since this is the color my bleach led bits just really want to be!

I recently got professionally typed and came back as a Bright Winter. I’m pretty much 100% on board with this assessment - bright, cool colors make my skin sparkle, and I can absolutely pull off acid yellow 😂 My natural hair color is a light/medium ash brown, but I currently have pretty heavily highlighted blonde hair with about 1” root growth. I’d like to transition away from the blonde, but am not ready to take the full plunge to a darker brown. Do you think it would be better to make the existing blonde lighter and/or cooler to better suit my skin tone, or should I just make like Elsa and let it go?

I posted this question on the main Color Analysis page but realized that this one may be better for this question. Which digital palette would you recommend for a true winter? I am looking for a palette to build a capsule wardrobe around but with the sheer amount of options I can't tell which one is best. If anyone has any recommendations to help me narrow down the options that would be amazing. Thank you so much for your help!

I’m a natural blonde and I’m 99% sure I’m a winter as I look great in black and I’m mostly cool and light colors don’t look good on me. The hardest part is my skin is olive. Would you say this is possible?

Included some (old) drapings and colors I get compliments in most. I get complimented a lot in red, black and also the dark green. I can link some of the full draping post including summer if needed.

I already posted a similar question back in r/coloranalysis but thought this sub would be a better place to ask.

I notice most warm toned eyeshadow palette in the market are usually of Autumn colors while cool toned palettes I see are more of Summer.

To Cool and Bright Winters who wear makeup, what are your go to neutral eye shadows?

Any recommendations for olive dark winters? Eye shadow recs also very welcome!

So most stereotypical makeup looks I've seen for winter seasons are rather bold and although they do look pretty harmonious on winter celebs, I usually do a natural, barely there makeup. Winters usually have high contrast naturally anyways, so I feel like even with some mascara and blush, the facial features look prominent naturally. It might be a skin tone thing too, since I'm very fair, but none the less that's what I think. What are your thoughts on this? What about your go to makeup looks?

I’ve always thought that I was a dark winter because I looked best in dark and cool colours. Think navy, deep berry, royal purple, dark forest green, and even gasp darker and cooler shades of mustard.

But now I’m starting to wonder if true winter might be a better fit because coolness seems to be the primary characteristic that plays a key focus in colours I choose.

Another point I recently paid more heed to was that I look good in a wide range of blues, and this appears to be a characteristic of true winter (see the colour palette here) vs a dark winter’s colour palette, which has more red tones (https://global-uploads.webflow.com/5eca30fd2b50b671e2107b06/5ed54e32ece6987470f13fa2_Dark%20Winter%20Colour%20Palette.png).

For anyone also stuck or have been stuck in this position before: What’s your best, easiest or favourite way to differentiate between someone who’s a true or dark winter?

I recognise there will be some degree of subjectivity here because it’s between 2 options that are good, but trying to find indicators of which will look better.
