Beyond the 4 seasons : why tonal analysis is the future of personal colour

In the 1980s, the world was introduced to a revolutionary concept: wearing your best shades could transform your confidence.

Through the pioneering work of Carole Jackson and Colour Me Beautiful, "Seasonal Analysis" became a household term.

We learned about the crispness of Winter and the warmth of Autumn.

However, as our understanding of colour science deepened, we noticed a limitation.

The traditional four seasons - Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter -were often tied to specific mid-latitude climates and limited complexions.

They left many "in-between."

Perhaps you have a fair, warm complexion but low contrast. You are too soft for Spring, too warm for Summer, and too light for Autumn.

Where do you belong?

This is why we evolved.

By moving from a 4-season model to a 24-profile Tonal Analysis, we embrace the full spectrum of colour science. This method doesn't just look at a label; it looks at the unique characteristics of you. It is thorough, accurate, and inclusive.

While the internet still speaks in "seasons," my practice offers a more refined, tonal direction.

We can still find your "closest season," but your true palette is far more nuanced than a single time of year.
