Discover all our advice on colorimetry to bet on the colors made for you.
1. What is colorimetry?
Depending on your skin tone, the color of your eyes and your hair, some colors will make you look healthy while others will highlight your imperfections. This is the basis of colorimetry. Colorimetry allows you to identify the colors that enhance you and those to avoid. Your stylist uses these techniques to define your ideal colors. This is why each of the information entered on your Modames questionnaire is precious to us in order to offer you selections entirely designed for you.
2. What colors should you choose for a luminous complexion?
Experts first differentiate between warm and cool skin tones. To identify your skin’s undertones, look in a mirror: if your skin has undertones that tend more toward yellow, you have a warm complexion. Conversely, if they tend more toward blue or pink, you have a cool complexion.
Otherwise, inspecting the veins on your wrists is also an effective method. If they tend towards green, you have a warm complexion. But if they are bluish, you have a cool complexion.

Then, experts identify 4 different color palettes represented by the seasons. Depending on the shade of your face, hair and eyes, you belong to a season. Spring or autumn women generally have warm skin tones while summer or winter women have cool skin tones.
3. What season do you belong to?
- Spring :
You have light hair, light eyes and a golden complexion tending towards yellow. Favor warm tones such as orange, coral, red or yellow. Light tones (almond green, lime, peach, etc.) will also give you a healthy glow. Avoid cool colors.
- Summer :
In harmony, your hair is light, as are your eyes and your skin is porcelain or tends towards pink. Then bet on cool and pastel tones like sea green, sky blue or lavender. Avoid warm colors.
- Autumn :
You have dark hair, brown or green eyes, and golden skin. Warm and dark tones will suit you wonderfully: rust, mustard yellow, saffron, brown, camel, khaki… Avoid cold colors.
- Winter :
Cool, dark and bright shades will enhance people with dark hair, dark or pink skin and black or blue eyes. Klein blue, fuchsia, burgundy, fir green, lavender or dark purple, the choice is yours. Avoid warm colors.
