Rapid Diagnosis Protocol
The 3 Indicators:
- Metal Albedo: Bright Spring harmonizes with Shiny Gold. Bright Winter harmonizes with Shiny Silver.
- Iris Topology: Bright Spring often has a "sunburst" (golden ring around the pupil). Bright Winter often has distinct "spokes" or a sharp, dark limbal ring.
- The "Pink" Test: Bright Spring glows in Coral/Salmon (Yellow-based pink). Bright Winter glows in Fuchsia/Magenta (Blue-based pink).
1. Palette Calibration
- Spring Marker: Look for Poppy Red (#F2055C) or Bright Marigold. If these make the face look "alive" and healthy, it is Spring.
- Winter Marker: Look for Cyan (#00FFFF) or Hot Pink. If these look harmonious rather than separate from the person, it is Winter.
🛡️ Engineering Transparency: Kombinlio's "Skin Undertone Engine" converts the RGB values of your skin pixels into the CIELAB color space. We verify the $b^$ value (Yellow-Blue axis). A positive $b^$ indicates Warmth (Spring), while a negative $b^*$ indicates Coolness (Winter), correcting for ambient light via White Balance algorithms.
2. ❌ What to Avoid (The Muted Anti-Pattern)
- Dustiness: Both seasons are "Clear" dominance. Avoid any muted or dusty colors (Mauve, Sage). These will make you look grey.
- Low Contrast Monochromes: Avoid head-to-toe beige or grey. These seasons require "Value Blocking" (pairing very light with very dark) to replicate their natural high contrast.
- Matte Textures: Avoid matte metals. Both Bright seasons require high specular reflection (shine). Choose satin > cotton, patch > suede.
