Update from September 2018: I uploaded a new photo with face examples for a better understanding of this seasonal color palette. Although I can’t be certain about the celebrities’ exact seasonal color palettes I would like to show some examples to visualize each color palettes.
As well as, I added a new color palette with the names of the shades 🙂
Zooey Deschanel / Courteney Cox
Alexis Bledel / Michelle Dockery

I had my colours done several years ago and was Spring. Now my hair is a lot lighter (white in places), still pale blue eyes with dark outer ring. I generally have a cool complexion, flush easily. What would I be classed as now?
Hi, I can’t tell if I’m a clear or cool winter. Every time I look at examples of clear winters I think yeah that’s me but when I look at cool winters I think yeah that’s me too 🙂
Yes, you can be a clear winter with brown eyes. For one, the eye/hair color used in examples is for those typical of that coloring, but it isn't absolute; what decides your palette is your skin tone. Two, to say only blue or green eyes work for clear winter, would mean only white people can be clear winter, but if you look at the clear winter palette examples in an image search, "deep brown" and "black" are two skin colors that go with clear winter, which you know someone that dark will most likely have brown eyes.
I myself have brown eyes and am a winter, and assumed that I was a deep winter because of my eyes. But a lot of deep winter colors looked just OK on me. I'm too neutral to be a cool winter, so I knew I wasn't that. But when I tried wearing bright colors, people told me I looked really good, so I copied the clear winter palette and found it worked best for my skin.
It's the skin that is the important one, though. anything else can vary i've noticed. Liv Tyler is not bright enough for Bright Winter, I would see her as a Cool Winter / Cool Summer… she seems to look best in lighter lilacs/purples/blues…
No, you would be a deep winter; clear winters have ''jewel'' like eyes
I am a brown eyed girl with a natural pink blush. I don't need to wear blush because even after a good coverage of my base, my cheeks glow thru. Where do you hear that brown eyed girls don't wear pink blush. ??
No, she's not…she is a winter, dark hair and blues eyes
Nope. Need eye-hair contrast. Jewel like eyes are defining feature, not brown. Try Deep Autumn. Brown eyed girls do not wear red/pink blush but clear winters do.
But clear winters can also have dark brown sparkling eyes, am I right?
I believe so ???. What matters the most is that clear winter colour palette looks beautiful on you, despite having sparkling dark brown eyes ??. There should be exception though, because it can be easy to assume that those who have brown/dark brown eyes only look good in “dark autumn” or “dark winter” colours. There are individuals who look absolutely blah in dark winter or dark autumn colours even though they have dark brown eyes.
Giselle Pallas oh no, she's not.
Liv Tyler is a light summer.
Good information! =)
But clear winters can also have bright light brown eyes (I'm one) not only bright blue or green.
