The four seasons

How Korea sorts coloring

Every face falls into one of four seasons, set by two things: whether your undertone is warm or cool, and how light or deep your coloring is.

Every complexion has a season.It comes from undertone and depth, not skin color.

Spring Warm

Bright Spring

A golden glow that comes alive next to fresh, saturated color.

WarmLightClear

Typical cushion 21N · 23N

Summer Cool

Light Summer

Low contrast. Hazy rose and powder blue look effortless; vivid color overpowers.

CoolLightSoft

Typical cushion 19C · 21C · 23C

Autumn Warm

Deep Autumn

Real depth and an olive-gold cast that thrives in terracotta, camel and olive.

WarmDeepMuted

Typical cushion 23N · 25N

Winter Cool

Bright Winter

High contrast. One of the few who can wear true black, pure white and jewel tones.
