Seasonal Colour Theory

Seasonal colour analysis is an in-depth approach by a trained colour consultant. It incorporates your unique skin tone, eye colour, and hair colour to create a personalised palette that truly flatters you.

All colour tones can be grouped into four categories: Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. Spring and Summer palettes tend to feature lighter, tones, while Autumn and Winter lean towards richer, deeper shades.

Through structured visual analysis, targeted questions, and colour draping, I assess how your natural undertone responds to seasonal palettes, then determine your season and refine it into a precise sub-season classification. By also considering your individual personality and preferences, we’ll narrow this down even further to find the colours that ensure you look your best – whether in clothing, jewellery, make-up or even hair colour. The outcome can make an immediate visible difference to the way you look and feel.

Your colour consultation includes:

  • Personalised skin tone & hair assessment

  • Quick style check - to ensure we match your colours to your personality style, whether that be bold and vibrant, or soft and understated

  • Seasonal & sub-seasonal analysis with professional drapes

  • Makeup, jewellery, and hair colour advice for your skin tone

  • Free take-home seasonal swatch (£25 value)

  • Detailed same-day email, recapping your consultation

FAQs

  • Definitely not. Colour analysis consultations are tailored and refined to you as an individual. It’s about providing you with the colours that will make you look and feel amazing, not rigid rules.

  • Not if you don’t like bright colours. Once we have worked out your Season, and ascertained your personality traits, we can put the two together and identify the colours that best suit you alongside which you like best.

  • No, its more about having a wardrobe of pieces that really work for you, learning about how to work with what you have and love, and awareness when shopping in the future.

  • For those who never leave the house without make-up, I completely understand how this can make you feel self-conscious and uncomfortable. Unfortunately, it is extremely difficult to see your true skin tone with any make- up on, therefore, if you would prefer to arrive with make-up, we can remove it once you are here.

  • No, you can wear whatever you like, as long as it isn’t too high up around your neck. I will need a white base to start the colour draping, but I can use a white draping cape around your shoulders to provide a blank canvas to work from (this is washed after each client).

  • Absolutely not. Finding the colours and tones that compliment a man’s natural skin tone, especially those clothes worn near the face, can not only enhance a man’s appearance, making them look younger and healthier, but also increases confidence - exactly the same as with women. Learning how to combine colours and patterns is of great benefit, whether considering work or casual wear.

  • Approx. 1.5-2 hours. You will then receive a follow up email approx. 24-48 hrs following with a summary of everything we have discussed.

  • Yes, although your hair colour is extremely important aspect to consider, we really want to focus on your face during the consultation.

  • Yes, at the end of the consultation you will receive a mini wallet (male or female specific). In addition, there are also more detailed seasonal fans and wallets available to buy.
