Fifteen quick picks tell you whether you're warm, cool or soft olive, and your season. Free, no photo.
What olive-skinned celebrities have in common
Put the 21 side by side and three patterns jump out. Every one of them has a green-gold cast under the skin, which is what makes olive olive. Every one has hair somewhere between medium brown and black. And 16 of the 21 land in a Deep season, because dark hair against olive skin creates the kind of contrast that Deep Autumn and Deep Winter are built on.
The split between them is temperature. Warm olive celebrities like Penélope Cruz and Selena Gomez glow in spice, wine and gold. Cool olive celebrities like Gal Gadot and Bella Hadid sharpen in black, sapphire and silver. None of the 21 lands in a Spring or Summer season.

How to use a celebrity look-alike
A celebrity with your coloring is a shortcut to a palette that's already been tested on camera.
- 1
Match depth first
Find the celebrities whose hair and eyes are about as dark as yours, and whose skin is about as light or deep. Depth narrows the list faster than anything else.
- 2
Then match temperature
Do the gold versus silver test in daylight. Gold melting into your skin points you to the Autumn celebrities; silver points you to the Winters.
- 3
Borrow her palette
Open her page and use her best colors, makeup map and hair shades as your starting point. Her outfits are one example; the palette behind them is what transfers.
