Colour Analysis
|
Custom, virtual personal colour analysis by Xanthe Wyse, an artist with a science degree. Xanthe has had a lifelong passion for the art and science of colour.
She finds the 'seasonal' colour analysis systems too restrictive, inconsistent, not a great fit and typically ridiculously overpriced. Some issues with the 'seasonal' system is that it is based on pale skintones and outdated colour theory. She is offering virtual colour analysis, recommending a custom palette, using her expertise in colour, for a reasonable price. Aimed at those who prefer a more natural look, not masking their skintone under heavy makeup. |

How It's Done
|
The client will provide digital photo(s) to show colouring as per requirements. Lighting is very important for an accurate colour comparison.
Accuracy of colour is important, not the most appealing photo aesthetically. No makeup is to be worn for this consultation. Xanthe will digitally drape the client's photo with various colours, to compile a custom digital palette of at least 20 colours, which will be emailed to the client. Examples of some of the best and worst colours draped, will also be provided, with some guidelines (not rigid rules) for choosing best colours. Coming soon: Requirements for photos and best lighting conditions. |
No makeup selfie using a DIY colour checker to choose the most suitable photo.

What are the benefits?
Having a palette of recommended colours can help make shopping for clothes easier and to try new colours. To feel more confident and to avoid wasting money on clothes which aren't worn. Also, to help with selecting makeup and hair colours.
It can be helpful to have another opinion on what looks good on you, which can be hard to determine if you are used to only wearing some colours.
