what to expect before, during & after your session
Discover the colours that truly complement your natural colouring - and see the difference for yourself.
Using the 16–23 Seasons System of the International Image Institute, I’ll analyse how different colours interact with your natural features and determine the palette that harmonises best with your skin, eyes and hair.
But your colour analysis is about more than simply finding a “season”. During your session, we’ll look at the colours that make your complexion look brighter, your eyes stand out and your overall appearance feel more harmonious. I’ll show you how to translate your palette into everyday choices when it comes to clothing, makeup, jewellery and hair colour.

A 2.5 hour colour analysis experience to share with someone special — whether that's a friend, partner, or family member.
You will each receive your own individual colour analysis, with your own colour season and results. We'll analyse one person at a time, while the other gets to watch and experience the process too. It's especially fun to see how the same colours can look completely different on two people.

what to do before your session
A few small things can make a big difference when we're analysing your natural colouring.
Please come:
without makeup - you can remove it at the studio if needed.
without self-tanner
without tinted contact lenses
without large jewellery around your face
without glasses, if possible
What if you have permanent makeup?
That's absolutely fine. If you have permanent makeup such as microblading, powder brows or lip blush, simply let me know during your appointment so I can take it into consideration.
What if you colour your hair?
Also absolutely fine. If your hair is dyed, I'll place a light scarf over it during the first part of the analysis so that your current hair colour doesn't influence the assessment.
If possible, bring a few photos showing your natural hair colour, ideally from after puberty. You can also send them to me beforehand.
what happens during your session
Introduction
We'll start with a little introduction to colour analysis and the 16–23 Seasons System I use, and have a chat about what you're hoping to discover during your session.
Colour Draping
Then we'll get into the most important part of the experience: the draping. I'll place different colours around your face and compare how they interact with your natural colouring. Together, we'll look at how different colours affect your complexion, eyes and overall appearance. Through this process, we'll discover your undertone, intensity and value — the three key colour characteristics that help us determine which colours harmonise best with you.
Finding your colour season
Based on the draping results, I'll determine your personal colour season using the 16–23 Seasons System. We'll look at your most flattering colours, including your wow colours, as well as colours that are less harmonious with your natural colouring.
A few finishing tips
Once we've established your palette, I'll give you some quick, practical guidance on makeup and hair colour that harmonise with your colouring. You'll also have plenty of opportunity to ask questions about your results.

one last thing...
There is no such thing as a colour you are “never allowed to wear”.
Your colour analysis isn't about creating a new set of rules for your wardrobe. It's about understanding which colours naturally harmonise with you, so that you can make more confident choices when you want to.
You can still wear black. You can still wear your favourite colour. You can still break every “colour rule” you want.
The goal is simply to give you the knowledge to know what works — and then decide what you want to do with it :)
