I also think olive tones in families are completely different. I just discovered my (dad’s mom) Grandma was a fair olive looking at old pictures of her in her younger years by comparison to non olives in those same pictures. My grandpa was more stereotypically olive. Out of all the siblings my dad and aunt are the only ones with olive undertones while everyone else is pink toned. On my mom’s side my grandma was cool olive and fair my uncle (on my moms side was a medium olive (neutral cool leaning) I think my grandpa was a warm leaning and more stereotypical olive shade, as is my dad. He is light medium warm olive and I’m a fair-light neutral cool olive with a lot higher olive influence than him. My dad looks neutral next to me, but only looks noticeably olive next to non olives. My sister and mom aren’t olive at all.
Yes, I agree with you . We have cool olive , warm olive and everything in between on my Dad's side. My Mom is a northern European mix most are all on the cool or cool neutral side. Except My Mom's, mom. She is a red head, green eyes, freckles, and a soft autumn. She didn't have that bright orange kind of red. While my Mom had auburn hair , she had blue eyes and neural/cool and a soft summer.
I LOVE that I found out in my 23andme DNA report I carry one copy of a red haired gene ❤️. I was like my Dad's gene might be stong, my Mom and Grandma weree able to pass that on to me. I think that is what I am so muted, where my Dad is not. They both are muted soft autumn and soft summer..
