Understanding the 3 Sub-Seasons of the Summer Season in Colour Analysis
Summer is a soft, cool season in colour analysis, characterized by a gentle, muted colour palette that enhances cool undertones. This season is broken down into three sub-seasons: Cool Summer, Soft Summer, and Light Summer. Each of these sub-seasons offers a distinct set of colours that can bring out the best in individuals, helping them choose shades that enhance their natural features.
Disclaimer:
Please note that these are general guidelines based on common characteristics associated with each sub-season. Everyone is unique, and it is possible to have any eye colour or hair colour and still fall into any of the Summer sub-seasons. Colour analysis is a personal process that takes into account multiple factors beyond just eye and hair colour, including undertones, contrast levels, and overall complexion. For the most accurate results, it is best to have a colour analysis done by a professional.
Cool Summer individuals are characterized by their cool undertones and a preference for more muted and soft shades. This sub-season embraces cool and calm hues without being overpowering, ideal for those who have a delicate, refined look.
Key Characteristics of Cool Summer:
- Skin Tone: Cool undertones (blue, pink, or violet).
- Hair: Ashy shades of blonde, brown, or dark brown.
- Eyes: Cool blue, grey, or cool green eyes.
- Soft, Cool Neutrals: Light grey, cool taupe, and soft charcoal are perfect choices.
- Cool Blues and Greens: Powder blue, slate blue, and mint green enhance the subtle coolness of this season.
- Muted Pinks & Lavenders: Soft pinks, rose, and lavender can provide a delicate touch that complements the cool undertones.

Understanding Your Sub-Season: How to Choose the Right Colours for You:
Each of the Summer sub-seasons offers a unique set of colours that can enhance your features. To determine your specific sub-season, consider the following:
- Look at Your Skin Undertone: Are you more pink, cool, or neutral? This can help you determine your season.
- Examine Your Hair Colour: Is it light or dark? Muted or vibrant? This will guide you toward the right sub-season.
- Assess Your Eyes: Soft, light eyes or deeper, cooler tones can point you toward a specific sub-season.
Once you identify which Summer sub-season you belong to, you’ll be able to curate a wardrobe filled with flattering, harmonious colours that will enhance your natural beauty and complement your personal style.
Conclusion: Summer colour analysis is a helpful tool for identifying which colours best suit your complexion and personal features. Whether you are a Cool, Soft, or Light Summer, embracing your sub-season can bring clarity and confidence to your wardrobe choices. By incorporating the right shades, you’ll enhance your natural beauty and create a timeless, flattering look.
