Colour family · 4 subtypes
The Winter colour family
Winter is the cool family with clear, strong colour and visible contrast between hair, skin and eyes. Its shades are graphic and sharp: true white, black, fuchsia, sapphire, icy tones.
There are four subtypes: Bright, Cool, Deep and True Winter. Coolness is what they share; the strength of contrast and the depth of colour are what set them apart — and that decides which shades are yours.
The four subtypes
Same season, but different lightness, clarity and contrast — the four palettes do not match.

How to recognise this family
- Noticeable contrast between hair, skin and eyes
