SKILL/TREE

Stop guessing your color season — get a 12-season analysis without the $300 in-person consult.

Trained color analysts charge $200-400 for a session that ends with a swatch book. This skill takes a selfie (or detailed description) and produces the same thing: your season + 40-color palette with hex codes + makeup picks for foundation, blush, lip, and eye across three budget tiers + the gold-vs-silver verdict + a closet audit. One pair under \$10, no subscription.

What it does

Most "color analysis" online is either a $0 BuzzFeed quiz that asks what your favorite color is, or a $300 in-person session at a studio that ends with a swatch book and a memory you'll forget in three months. This skill produces the same output as the in-person session — your specific 12-season type with a 40-color hex-coded palette + makeup picks across three price tiers + a gold-vs-silver verdict + a closet audit — for the price of one trip to Sephora. The methodology: three diagnostic axes (undertone / value / chroma) cross-checked against your photo or description with multiple tests — vein color, jewelry preference, white-vs-cream contrast, sun reaction, eye color and pattern, hair value. Maps to one of 12 sub-types (Light Spring, True Summer, Soft Autumn, Bright Winter, and 8 more) refined from the original 4-season system to handle the in-between cases that confuse most quiz-takers. What you get: a 40+ hex color palette organized into anchors (wardrobe basics), accents (pop pieces), neutrals that work for YOUR season, and 5 colors to avoid with the reasoning. Plus specific makeup picks for foundation, blush, lip, and eye — drugstore, mid-range, and luxury tiers — with brand + shade name (NARS Sheer Glow Stromboli, MAC Diva, Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk, etc.). Plus the gold-vs-silver verdict, definitive. Plus a closet audit framework for 8-10 common item types (white shirts, black pants, navy blazer, denim, brown leather) telling you what to keep, swap, or donate. Works from a photo (most accurate) or a detailed verbal description (same output depth, flagged confidence). One pair under $10, no subscription, install on Claude or ChatGPT in a single command.

Frequently asked

How is this different from the BuzzFeed "what's my season" quiz?
Quiz answers are mood-based ("which color do you feel today"). This skill uses the actual 12-season Munsell-derived methodology — three axes (undertone / value / chroma) cross-checked against your photo or description with multiple diagnostic tests (vein color, jewelry test, white vs cream, sun reaction, eye color, hair value). The verdict comes with hex codes and product picks, not just a season name.
Do I need to take a special photo?
For best results: natural light (north-facing window is ideal), no makeup, hair pulled back. If you can't do that, the skill works from a detailed verbal description — your vein color, gold-vs-silver jewelry preference, what foundation+shade you wear, eye color with pattern detail. Both modes flag confidence level.
What if I'm in between two seasons?
About 30% of buyers are borderline. The skill names both candidate seasons, explains when each applies, recommends a primary, and gives an expansion palette so you can pull from the secondary occasionally. If you want absolute certainty, an in-person drape session ($200-400) is the gold standard.
Why specific brand and shade names instead of "warm pink lipstick"?
Because "warm pink" doesn't help when you walk into Sephora. The skill names MAC Diva, NARS Sin, Charlotte Tilbury Walk of Shame, Pat McGrath Elson 4 — specific shades you can swatch, search, or order. Across drugstore, mid-range, and luxury so any budget gets a working pick.
I just dyed my hair — does the analysis still work?
Hair color is one of three inputs (skin + eyes + hair). If your current hair is dyed dramatically off your natural color, ask the skill to weight skin and eyes more heavily, OR describe what your natural color is at the roots. The skill will adjust and flag the hair-as-unreliable-input case.
