In some seasonal color analysis circles Asian women are grouped together as being either Winter or Autumn, but the reality is that color analysis is way more nuanced than this.
Skin Tone
First thing we should cover is SKIN TONE!
There is so much confusion about skin tone, but this video breaks it down beautifully by showing paint colors and explaining how it all works regardless of how dark or light your skin is.
Vein color
Cool seasons, which include Winter and Summer typically have more blue or purple veins when you look under the skin of the wrist, whereas the warm toned color seasons of Spring and Autumn have a more greenish tone.
Eye color
While most Asians have dark brown eyes, there is possibility of other colors too of course! Dark brown eyes typically put you between a Winter and Autumn, depending upon if the rest of your features and in totality are more warm (Autumn) or cool (Winter). If you have lighter eyes
Hair color
Your hair color also gives you a lot of hints about your color season... if you have reddish, orangish or golden tones in your hair, you are more warm and likely an Autumn color season. Whereas, if you are have more jet black hair with a more blue or violet undertone, you are likely a Winter.
Though, you can obviously be any color season if your eyes vary in color from the deep dark brown or black. See the illustration below for more inspiration.
Contrast
How all of your features contrast with one another give you at least one more clue! As you can see, when you take a color photo and make it black and white, you can see the amount of contrast between the hair skin and eyes, which helps you determine the sub-season in seasonal color analysis.
For example, a Cool Winter and Deep Autumn have the highest amount of contrast between features. High contrast means that there is a large variation, for example, between the dark hair and the light skin.
