Color Analysis Is a Liberation - Not a Limitation
When people hear the words Color Analysis, many immediately think of rules:
“You can’t wear this color.”
“You should avoid that shade.”
But if you’ve worked with me, or even followed me for a while, you know that this couldn’t be further from my approach.
Color Analysis has evolved so much over the years. What once felt rigid and prescriptive is now a tool for self-knowledge, personal expression, and confidence. Just like I would never tell a petite woman she can’t wear a midi skirt (that’s very old-school styling!), I would never use Color Analysis to limit you.
It’s the opposite.
Color Analysis Helps You Understand Yourself - Not Restrict Yourself
Here’s a personal example: I don’t have black or white in my color palette.
And here’s the secret… I love black dresses and white shirts. I wear them a lot.
Why?
Because when you understand why a color isn’t your very best, you also learn how to make it work beautifully:
through the right makeup
with earrings or a necklace that balances the undertone
with thoughtful combinations
by adjusting contrast
That’s exactly what I teach my clients.
Color Analysis isn’t about perfection; it’s about awareness. A tool you can use, not a rule you must follow.
What You Gain From a Modern Color Analysis
A great Color Analysis gives you:
Freedom: To wear what you love, with more strategy and confidence.
Clarity: Why you feel amazing in some colors… and tired or washed out in others.
Ease: Shopping becomes faster. Getting dressed becomes simpler. You save time, money, and frustration.
Harmony: You understand how your undertone, intensity, and contrast work together, and how colors can support or overwhelm your natural beauty.
Confidence, because when you understand the “why” behind your choices, you stop second-guessing yourself.
This is what I want for every client: not a box full of rules, but a sense of empowerment.
A Modern Approach to Color
My approach is open-minded, educational, and highly personalized. I teach you:
Why certain colors bring harmony to your face
How to wear the colors you love (even if they aren’t in your palette)
How contrast affects your overall appearance
How to combine colors in ways that fit your personal style
How your palette supports makeup, hair color, and accessories
Color becomes a tool of self-expression, not a restriction.
