Discover the colours that put YOU in focus

A colour analysis session is an in-person, guided process to discover the precise colour palette that harmonizes with you (with the colours naturally present in your skin and eyes).
Wearing these colours, your natural features are enhanced and your complexion comes alive - you appear more vivid in an organic way.
A harmonized palette of colours integrated with your inherent features creates a cohesiveness that draws the eye and settles it.
I warmly welcome people of all skin tones, ages, genders, and gender identities.

"One of the best things about working with Amber is the feeling of being around her. Her entire aura is loving and sensitive, and when she listens to you, you feel like her whole world. Such a caring heart is a wonderful quality in a color analyst, because the process can be unexpectedly emotional! As an analyst, Amber is enthusiastic about her methodology, and has a natural instinct for colour harmony."
~ Cate Linden, Colour Analyst & Teacher
Amber is trained in the SciART™ 12-tone system, a grounded approach developed by established artist and dedicated colour expert - Kathryn Kalisz.
The analysis is done in a controlled environment with precise tools - a neutral grey setting, full-spectrum lighting, and calibrated fabric drapes.
This meticulous setup eliminates any external influences and variations, ensuring your colour analysis is accurate.
Instead of guessing, this method focuses on how colours truly interact with your existing colouring - so your results are based on you, not trends or stereotypes.

Preparation:
You will arrive with no makeup and no skin care products on your face.
Introduction to Seasonal Tones:
We’ll begin with a fun and informative lesson on the 12 colour seasons.
Draping Process Includes:
The fabric drapes will be compared by placing them directly under your chin while you sit in front of a mirror. This process is similar to an eye exam at the optometrist’s office - comparing what works best and what doesn't.
I encourage you to ask questions, share your thoughts, and explore as you see the draping process unfold in the mirror. My goal is for you to clearly see why you are your season.
Seasonal Typing:
Through careful elimination, we narrow down the seasonal colour palette that enhances your natural features most effectively. The remainder of the session is focused on discussing your results and personalized recommendations.

Recommendations Include:
Your colour season typically stabilizes around the age of 15.
While your season remains the same, the shades you favour within the palette may change as your skin matures and your hair naturally greys.
A light tan is no problem. A deeper tan or sunburn can affect accuracy, so it's best to wait a month before your session if that is the case.
If you need to cancel, please do your best to cancel within 24hrs.
