I'm a warm olive, an "autumn" in seasonal color system, and I always felt the "warm" purples and blues in autumn palettes looked awful on me making me appear sallow, and I was so confused since it makes sense warm undertones will look better in "warm" color variations but in practice didn't work. I've always felt indigo and traditionally "cool" purples looked better, and now I understand why!
Thank you for such a unique and refreshing approach in color analysis ❤
This is great to hear! The seasonal color analysis has the idea of warm vs cool which is not based on science and this is why it doesn't work at all.
Thank you! This was helpful for me! I always thought that I leaned olive, but according to this video I clearly am not. I think I'm actually on your Blue chart in the MB4-5 range. Now to figure out what to do with that information 😅
Most welcome, this is great to hear!
If you can exclude Yellow Root Skin Color, you can cross-check with the Skin Color Chart to find your exact Sub-Root Skin Color.
Once you know this, many of my videos will make more sense to you, and I am giving advice for specific Root Skin Colors in future videos.
Or you say you don't want to rely on your eyes and your own analysis and potentially get it wrong you can book a Color analysis (Color Palette 3, 12, or 48 for your wardrobe, hair color, and/or makeup) to know for sure which Root Skin Color you have and the colors that are aligned with your True Color Type. Links are in the description.
Let me know if you have questions.
I love the details I can learn from this video, really. They do confirm some things I thought might be true and clarify other things I was a bit confused about.
By the way: I do wear only gold jewelry by now and I was absolutely stunned about how much different I feel by doing this. I basically exchanged every single piece I wore and not only do people tell me, it suits me better than silver, I feel so much better too. But that switch made me feel like certain colors I wore are actually not great for me on an energetic level, honestly, I thank you so much for kickstarting this journey. I really wish we didn't have so many things on the list we have to spend money on so I could show my appreciation in booking your services, actually supporting your business, but that's absolutely impossible atm.
It is such a blessing that you create and share your perspective and knowledge with the www, honestly.
Unrelated question (I hope I didn't already ask this): Do you feel color energy and do you sense color? Can you tell what color a scent would have or what color a musical composition has? I think this might just be sensing energies in general and your brain creating a connection with something you feel most at home with. But I might be wrong here. E.g. all my favorite perfumes have a similar color to me. Some are more rich, others more subtle, but they all share similar qualities OR sit in a triadic relation to the others. The types of music I prefer to listen to comes down to a similar color family as the perfumes, really and that really made me smile yesterday, because I do think there is a specific connection existing, but I just haven't fully figured it out yet.
This is beautiful to hear! I appreciate your feedback and thoughts, Julia.
Yes, I feel/sense colors with related senses like sounds and smells (synesthetic).
This is why I feel utterly overwhelmed in stores as I see, hear, smell, taste everything at the same time from one source of sense. It creates a massive overload that my brain needs a lot of time to process.
It´s interesting that you have a preference for a triadic setting in perfumes. When you start analyzing the content of perfumes you can see relations to your color type as the ingredients based on flowers have a color/frequency - a fascinating field that I will definitely dive into in future videos.
Thank you 🙏🏼
That blood orange is fantastic and I can wear a spiced tomato. Very informative 💕
Most welcome! Good to hear you find value.
Pretty sure I'm olive and your right about the blue. Reds kind of hard to wear but I'm going to try the red orange.
Let me know how you feel about red-orange when you tried it!
I'm olive. Similar to Mila Kunis. And my colors are Sapphire, burgundy, baby blue, pinks, light to medium grays and black. But....I also have salt and pepper hair. So I tend to stay away from warm colors as they don't flatter my skintone/hair color combination.
what´s your eye color?
@@ellaraystyle a medium brown.
Olive/Yellow Root Skin Color Types can wear warm colors very well (from Red-Orange to Green) - and I noticed that many people are struggling with warm colors not knowing which ones really suit them best and so they stay away from them entirely.
Having brown hair and brown eyes, you will have more colors to wear than other color types while you would have to be more careful with depth and chroma.
i’m definitely olive!!! i made some palettes of my skin tone with an app i have & they definitely match colors on your yellow chart. i have some of those light yellowish gray tones in me as well. i’m hoping i can learn from your channel bc i’ve been so lost trying to find my season & colors trust suit me.
i can see you don’t reference cool & warm. and that always confuses me bc some people say Olive is an undertone vs. an overtone. and some people say all olives are cool. so i truly get so lost. but i can definitely see a difference in different olive tones. so do you have a certain system you use for olives? i know not every olive skin tone works with the same colors or would that just be because of the chroma or deep vs. light etc. ?
My science-based system is not based on warm vs. cool (like the seasonal analysis), which makes it more accurate and inclusive (while the seasonal is exclusive: it was developed for white women).
Most people end up frustrated like you searching for years for their season only to be disappointed by the colors given once they "find" their season.
Scientifically speaking, there are not 4 color types as the seasonal analysis suggests but 9 billion.
My system is the only one capable of finding all 9 billion instead of squeezing you in 1 of 4 boxes where you don't belong.
There are no under- or overtones. This was a helpless and clueless attempt to describe the skin color when people knew nothing about it on a scientific level. Now we do, which is incorporated in my system.
Olive is Yellow Root Skin Color, and all color types are warm. All color types can wear both warm AND cool colors (something the seasonal analysis will rob you of).
Yellow RSC can not wear all the same colors as they all have slightly different color frequencies, which are directly connected to color harmony rules that I apply to every client individually.
My system works for all color types in the same way as I analyze every client individually. There is no cookie cutter color type template that I apply to each one (to save time or resources as other systems do).
This makes the system rather complex, in-depth, and time-consuming. But my obsession and commitment to colors, harmony, health, and perfection are a good match for this high-demanding endeavor.
Every person is unique, and I respect and honor that through my system and the colors I develop. 🌺
@@ellaraystyle omg thank you so much for this detailed response! i’m so happy i found your channel!
@@ellaraystyle i can’t thank you enough for taking the time to respond to my comments!
that’s actually very interesting! i’m so intrigued to learn more about your system. it definitely makes sense though. i’m part of a group on reddit & we’re all fair olives.. and most of us are frustrated & confused 🤣. a lot of people i’ve talked to that are similar to me find they can mingle in between 2 seasons in the 12/16 season categories. or find some of the colors don’t work as well in them. so i can totally see what you’re saying.
9 billion is a crazy number! that’s actually amazing.. i knew skin tones were complex but that’s mind blowing.
i can definitely see the yellow in my skin lol. along with other colors. and i find it so interesting that you mix warm & cool colors with all color types.
i am so eager to learn what harmonizes with me. i’ve never thought about it in regards to clothing. i don’t have that bestie that tells you the truth. and bc of other reasons i’ve cut out old friends & don’t talk too much family. so i don’t have many people to turn to for opinions. and i’m definitely the hardest on myself. i’m my own worst enemy & i over analyze myself. i can usually see harmony with other people, most times when i follow your videos i can point out what colors work for that person. but when it comes to myself i’m just lost. and i just find it so hard to know what guidelines to follow. some beliefs cross over & some don’t. lots of it makes sense, but then you have people who don’t fit certain “types”. i can see what you’re saying about the seasons though.. they keep adding more sub categories. as it’s grown from 4 to 12 to 16 to i think 22 now. but everyone is unique like you said. yes there’s similar types but we’re all individuals.
but i’m definitely interested to learning more about your system & i look forward to seeing more videos from you!
most welcome!
I feel you when you say you don´t have many people you could turn to for advice. This was my situation back then and I had to make a decision: either suffer through insufficient systems that would never satisfy my fairly perfectionist mind and eye or I had to develop one myself.
I am honored to be able to help other people. I wake up grateful every day.
Olives have it the hardest if I may say so from my professional perspective - and being an olive/yellow RSC myself.
Not only are we neglected and misanalyzed in the color analysis systems, but also in stores we hardly find the right colors especially when we don´t know what to look for.
It was a real struggle for me as a teen and adult.
What I have uncovered helps me so much in knowing what colors, combinations, and styles to wear to always look my best - but most importantly having an armor of healthy colors that help my body stay healthy is my number one reason to move these mountains. It is not about being pretty but about being healthy. And a healthy body is always the most beautiful in my eyes.
There are certainly so many different approaches out there that I can imagine how confusing it may feel.
I hope you find a home on this channel that would help you see the light. 🌺
most welcome 🧡 feel free to share it with those who might benefit from it.
Mmmm I was thinking my root skin color is yellow but,I am starting to doubt a bit...I like red(mainly as lipstick) whitch root skin color can benefit from the color red,and how to be sure if you have really found your root skin color?
Liking a color and it being aligned with your body frequencies are two different things.
Generally speaking, Red Root Skin Colors look radiant in red, while there are also color type variations beyond Red RSC that also look aligned in red.
To be sure what Root Skin Color you have you can check out the Root Skin Color Chart which I specifically created for this purpose (you can find your Root Skin Color by observing the given colors in the chart).
Https://www.ellaray.com/store
The more expensive solution is to get a Color Palette where I will find your exact Root Skin Color so you don't have to guess.
This is all very informative but the prices are ridiculously high for the charts and analysis.
I am offering payment plans for those who might be on a smaller budget. Let me know if that would be helpful for you.
I still have no idea what my undertone is. And I have never found a singl color that looks good on me. Happy if it doesnt make me look too sick..😢.
There are no undertones, and I show why in this video: czcams.com/video/21byvu3ZsZg/video.html
I have not met a single person who didn't fit into my system and had beautiful colors that made them look radiant and healthy!
This sounds like you could be a soft or medium chroma type and/or a transition type.
Those have the hardest time finding the right colors (me included 10 years ago, which is why I developed this system that has the highest level of accuracy on the market so far because it is based on science).
Would love to show you through a color analysis that there are colors for you out there that will make you look beautiful, radiant, and healthy.
I taught green is not good for olive skins it brings yellow and green on them face up .?….??
A misconception taught by the seasonal analysis.
Olive Skin tones can wear True Green because it has the right frequency distance to their Root Skin Color and won't bring out any green or yellow in their faces.
This is a general guideline. When analyzing a client, I make sure I choose the right frequency distance to their exact Root Skin Color to avoid yellow or green to appear in their faces.
Yellow is a difficult color for Yellow Root Skin Colors that brings out the yellow in their skin (not green).
For some bright chroma types, it can happen that Olive colors will bring out the green/yellow in their skin. It is very individual, which is why my system is highly personalized.
I am nutural I can’t figure out worm or cool but I have yellow over my skin and pink on my skin too that’s why I gave up brown eyes and hair I just know that dark brown and dusty pink and rose are great on my and green not good
there are only warm color types, so you can stop figuring out warm or cool. You are warm.
Having yellow over or in your skin doesn´t mean that you are olive or have yellow Root Skin Color as most people have some yellow in their skin. It is the amount and mix with other colors/frequencies that will determine your color type/Root Skin Color.
@@ellaraystyle then why I have a rose or. Pink skin color on me
@@ellaraystyle and if color has a brown and pink on it that’s my best color for every think like lipstick blush specially rose pink
I would have to see a picture of you and make an analysis to tell you what Root Skin Color you have; whether or not you have pink in your skin and whether it is your natural skin color or a skin condition which is very common in women due to hormonal imbalances, etc. Otherwise, Yellow Root Skin Color as well as Red Root Skin Color can have both yellow and pink/rose in their skin.
You could find out what Root Skin Color you have with the help of my Skin Color Chart.

@@ellaraystyle thank you. So much it’s very helpful
But olive can be an overtone to both cool or warm.
According to science, there are no overtones and no warm vs cool Color types. All Color types are warm and are able to wear both warm and cool colors.
I explain why there are no undertones (or overtones) in this video:
czcams.com/video/21byvu3ZsZg/video.html
Well, I thought I was olive, but these colours don't work for me at all. Especially the orange. Makes me look sickly.
Orange has a fairly large spectrum and most people/Color types can wear some type of orange. Maybe you have a True Orange in mind while your best Orange could be a red-orange or a yellow-orange.
there is cool and warm olive, bright and muted olive; maybe you are cool and muted olive?
"cool" is oftentimes referred to in seasonal analysis when it is simply soft chroma.
Scientifically, there are only warm skin tones as they can only range from red to yellow - all warm colors.
@@ellaraystylethat’s very interesting. what about people who have very dark skin with that violet-like hue to them?
edit: ohh i think you actually have a video on it , i just saw someone else’s comment mentioning a blue chart that you have ☺️
people who have a blue or violet like hue to their dark skin are part of the Blue Root Skin Color family.
Here we have to consider the lighting as well because certain type of light can make anyone´s skin look blueish.
So under analysis conditions, I would make sure that the person´s image is made correctly with the right lighting to make sure no outside source is influencing the skin color.

Can you elaborate?
