With 16.7 million colors in the world, how can you possibly distinguish the exemplary colors for you and your surroundings?
The Seasonal Color Analysis theory, stemming from the external features of individuals is reviewed and evaluated to ascertain whether or not the premise is accurate and if the protocols are effective.
The C Color Ideology and Methodology, predicated upon an internal color gene within the DNA of individuals, is also addressed.
What Is A Seasonal Color Analysis?
In the Seasonal Color Analysis theory, each person is assigned a season of colors hinging on their external features. There are two approaches to this system, the 4 Season Color Analysis and the 12 Season Color Analysis. Both approaches share the same foundation, albeit the 12 Season Color Analysis structure has more categories.
4 Season Color Analysis
The 4 Seasonal Color Analysis system is dependent upon the evaluation of hair, eye and complexion colors. Each client is assigned to a Winter, Summer, Spring or Autumn season category. At the end of the consultation a palette of colors is presented to the client.
4 Season Color Analysis Method
Two categories that are within the 4 Season Color Analysis system are Cool Type and Warm Type. The determinants to the type that a client belongs are makeup foundation colors and silver and gold fabrics. The Cool Type consists of pink makeup foundation colors and silver fabrics and the Warm Type consists of yellow makeup foundation colors and gold fabrics.
Two additional categories that are within the 4 Season Color analysis system are Dark Type and Light Type. Cool skin undertones equate to Summer; light eyes and light hair and Winter; dark eyes and dark hair. Warm skin undertones equate to Spring; light eyes and light hair and Autumn; dark eyes and dark hair.
12 Season Color Analysis
The 12 Season Color analysis system includes hues, tints and shades to create three variations of each of the four seasons.
12 Season Color Analysis Method
The dominant characteristic or most notable external feature of a client and the colors that appear the best on the client are categorized into the groupings of Cool, Warm, Light, Dark, Deep, Clear and Muted.
Established from the combinations of the above groupings, a client is assigned to one of the 12 Season Color categories, that are Summer; light, soft, cool, Winter; deep, clear, cool, Spring; light, clear, warm and Autumn; deep, soft, warm.
Are Seasonal Color Analyses Effective?
Seasonal Color Analyses rely on subjective consultant evaluations that vary widely. While one consultant may assign a client to the Autumn season category, another might deem a client to be in the Spring season category.
The Seasonal Color Analysis method is difficult to comprehend and follow, as the conclusions are inconsistent, inconclusive and restrictive.
The following words that comprise the Season Color Analysis categories are subjective adjectives. All colors can be cool, warm, light, dark, deep, clear and muted.
People often confuse the temperatures of colors. Makeup artists, stylists, designers and most other industry professionals, categorize blues, greens and purples, as cool colors and reds, yellows and oranges, as warm colors and that is incorrect.
The Seasonal Color Analysis system does not only evaluate features that contain a multitude of colors; hair colors, eye colors and complexion colors, but, also features, that change with maturity and can be altered by hair dyes, contacts, tanning creams and the sun.
By solely evaluating external features, the 4 and 12 Season Analyses theories do not account for an individual’s inherent color inclinations or the 16.7 million known colors in the world, as typically a seasonal color palette, contains a limited number of colors.
As stated above, the 12 Season Color Analysis system includes hues, tints and shades to create three variations of each of the four seasons, although, hues are another word for color, tints are a mixture of color with white and shades are a mixture of color with black. A tone is produced either by a mixture of a color with gray or by both tinting and shading.
The Seasonal Color Analysis theory and protocols are not logical, nor linear, thereby, impossible to follow and those are two of the reasons that C Color was founded.
Two additional reasons were that the Founder of C Color began noticing the predominant base of colors, along with realizing that individuals intuitively know the fitting colors for themselves and their surroundings, but, do not consciously choose the fitting colors.
Finding an accurate color analysis system is of the utmost importance. C Color is the first and only company to quantify intuitive color inclinations. Quantifying the intuitive color proclivities of clients is the specialty of C Color and that Ideology and the C Color Methodology will support you in living life in your unparalleled color environment.
A New Approach To Color Analysis
The C Color Ideology differs from traditional color theories, as it relies on your genetic, DNA originated color partialities. You are born with innate predispositions toward colors, consequently, you embody the virtue of color intelligence.
C Color Spectrums consist of hundreds of thousands of colors that have a predominant base of one of the primary colors of either blue, yellow or red. Each individual is either a C Color Spectrum 1, C Color Spectrum 2, C Color Spectrum 3 or C Color Spectrum 4.
Wearing and utilizing colors within your C Color Spectrum can enhance your appearance, can enable you to think more clearly, can produce feelings of well-being, can motivate you to act your best, can assist you in absorbing new concepts more readily and distinctly and can aid you in healing.
Below is an example of a model in both C Color Spectrum 1, that has a predominant Cool Blue Ash Base and appears rubbed with ash and C Color Spectrum 3, that has a predominant Warm Yellow Base.
Distinctly, when the model is clad in C Color Spectrum 3 colors, she has a flawless and glowing complexion, as the model, in reality, is within the C Color Spectrum 3 category.

Take the C Color Quiz to discern your elemental desire for color and C Color Spectrum and then hundreds of thousands of colors, even millions are accessible.
During the C Color Quiz, you will be guided through a series of colored panels. Choose the colors that you are instantly and instinctively drawn towards. In other words, choose the first color per panel that catches your eye. By doing so, you are tapping into your immanent color propensities. Since the accurate aftereffect of the C Color Quiz emanates from intuitive choices, not thought choices, thinking about your color selections will skew the outcome.
