"The 4x4 color system was developed by Certified Image Professional Consultant Ferial Youakim, AICI CIP.
The new 16 categories of seasonal color analysis, officially known as the 4x4 Color System© has each of the original 4 seasons (Winter, summer, Autumn and Spring) broken down into 4 sub-categories based on whether the person needs -
The purest, most saturated colors for that main season
Colors that are slightly lighter than the purest colors (tinted)
Colors that are slightly muted with grey (toned)
Colors that are slightly deepened with black (shaded)"

So what exactly are the 4 additional seasons? They are:
- Deep Winter Soft
- Light Spring Soft
- Soft Autumn Light (The Soft Autumn season was split into two)
- Soft Autumn Deep
- Soft Summer Light (The Soft Summer season was split into two)
- Soft Summer Deep

What would these new sub-seasons look like? I've never fit into one of the 12 so I'm wondering if I might be one of the new shades.

I used to think soft summer, but my eyes are not right, and I am definitely not an autumn because yellow and olive suck the life out of me, and winter there are no blondes.
I will answer with a post.
@Lisa, did you see I posted on this?
