How contrast analysis works
1. Three features, measured
On-device AI samples your skin, hair and eye colors and converts each to CIELAB lightness (L*) — the same scale colorists use.
2. The gap is your level
A big lightness jump between features (dark hair, fair skin) is high contrast; features that sit close together are low. You see the actual numbers.
3. Intensity follows
Your contrast level sets how bold your makeup and outfit pairings should go — match it and everything looks intentional.
The three contrast levels
Frequently asked questions
What is contrast in color analysis?
Contrast is the lightness gap between your skin, hair, and eyes. Dark hair with fair skin is high contrast; features that sit close in lightness are low contrast. It determines how bold your makeup and outfit pairings should be to harmonize with your natural pattern.
How do I know if I'm high contrast or low contrast?
Take a photo of yourself in black and white — if your hair, skin and eyes read as very different greys, you're high contrast; if they blur together, you're low. This tool does it precisely: it measures the actual CIELAB lightness of each feature and computes the gap.
Is my photo private?
Completely — the measurement runs in your browser with on-device AI. Nothing is uploaded.
How does contrast level change my makeup?
High-contrast faces carry black liner and true-red lips that would overwhelm a low-contrast face; low-contrast faces glow in tonal, blended looks that would disappear on high contrast. Matching your makeup's intensity to your natural contrast is the fastest way to make it look 'right'.
Is contrast the same as my color season?
It's one of the three axes (with undertone and depth) that determine your season — Winters are typically high contrast, Summers and Autumns softer. Check your full season with our free color analysis.
