Why 12 Seasons, Not 4?

The traditional 4-season system is a starting point, but it's not precise enough for real recommendations.

4-Season System

  • Divides everyone into just 4 broad categories
  • Lumps very fair and very deep coloring into the same season
  • Doesn't distinguish between muted and vivid coloring
  • Generic recommendations that don't always work

12-Season System

  • 12 precise categories covering the full spectrum of human coloring
  • Accounts for depth (light, medium, deep) within each season
  • Distinguishes between clear/bright and muted/soft coloring
  • Specific, actionable color palettes that truly flatter you

The Only Platform That Matches Your Color Season to Perfect Glasses Frames

Most color analysis tools stop at clothing colors. Aurotype goes further — for each of the 12 seasons, we provide specific glasses frame color recommendations so you can extend your seasonal palette to your eyewear. Gold frames for warm seasons. Silver for cool seasons. And much more nuance in between.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is color analysis?

Color analysis is a method of determining which colors complement your natural coloring — skin tone, hair, and eyes. The 12-season system categorizes people into one of 12 types based on warmth, depth, and clarity of their coloring.

How does AI color analysis work?

Our AI analyzes your photo to detect your skin undertone, hair color, and eye color. It compares these features against the 12-season color profiles to identify your season and recommend the most flattering colors and glasses frames.

Why 12 seasons and not 4?

The 4-season system is too broad — each season encompasses very different skin tones. The 12-season system adds nuance by splitting each season into three sub-types based on depth and clarity, giving far more precise color recommendations.

How do I choose glasses based on my color season?

Your color season determines which frame colors harmonize with your natural coloring. Warm seasons look best in gold, copper, and tortoiseshell. Cool seasons look best in silver, black, and navy. Aurotype gives specific frame color recommendations for your exact season.
