The Colour Me Beautiful concept of the 4 basic seasons is a great way to classify your best colour tones. This is based on four colour types: Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. These factors are dependent upon the undertones of your skin, eyes, and hair and how light or deep your overall colouring and hair.
Thanks to Anuschka Rees, these are the four classifications in detail to better understand these 4 basic seasons and identify what category you fit in :
