Why You Should Have Your Colours Done

When it comes to style and fashion, one of the most transformative things you can do for your wardrobe and overall confidence is understanding which colours work best for you. That's where personal colour analysis comes into play.   

1. Unlocking the Power of the Right Colours

We’ve all had that moment when we try on a piece of clothing in a colour we thought we’d love, only to find that it doesn’t quite work. Maybe it washes us out, or perhaps it makes us look tired, older, or just not quite right. That's because not all colours suit all skin tones, hair colours, or personal characteristics.

The 18 palette Absolute Colour System takes the guesswork out of this process by guiding you to the colours that are most flattering based on your personal features.  During the process we consider your natural skin undertones, eye colour, and hair, to help identify a palette of colours that will make you look vibrant, glowing, and put-together without having to try too hard.

When you wear colours that complement your natural colouring, you not only look more radiant, but you also feel more confident. The right hues can elevate your appearance, making your skin look healthier and giving you an overall youthful glow.

2. A Streamlined Wardrobe That Works for You

One of the major benefits of personal colour analysis is that it makes shopping a whole lot easier. Rather than browsing through endless racks, considering a whole lot of garments only to feel overwhelmed, you will be able to go directly to the part of the rack that relates to you. No more wasting money on clothing that doesn’t make you feel your best or hanging onto pieces that don't compliment your style.

With a personal colour analysis, you’ll have a colour palette to reference when building or editing your wardrobe. Not only that, when choosing your makeup, nail colours and glass frames, you will reach for your palette so regularly you won’t leave home without your swatch.   And having a smaller, curated colour palette allows you to mix and match more easily, resulting in a wardrobe that feels cohesive and versatile. 

3. A Boost in Confidence

When you wear colours that flatter you, you’ll feel the difference instantly. Instead of feeling like you're hiding behind your clothes, the right colours help highlight your best features, allowing your personality to shine. It’s like a wardrobe makeover without even having to step into a fitting room. Colours can influence our emotions and how others perceive us, and choosing the right shades can give you a real confidence boost.

Personal colour analysis also encourages you to embrace your individuality. It's not about fitting into trends or wearing what everyone else is wearing; it's about you feeling good in your own skin.

4. Sustainable Shopping Choices

This one is a game changer.  When you know what colours suit you best, you’re less likely to impulse buy items in shades that don’t work for you or that you’ll hardly wear. By training your eye to your individual palette this will reduce your desire for those 50/50 purchases and embrace the timeless pieces that can be worn year after year.  This is a win for your pocket and the environment.

5. More Than Just Fashion: It’s About Personal Expression

During a colour analysis we look at finding colours that truly express who you are. Whether you're drawn to bold, vibrant shades or soft, earthy tones, colour plays a huge role in expressing your personality and values.

Are you someone who loves to make a statement? Bold reds, electric blues, and vibrant purples might be your best colours. Or perhaps you’re more into soft pastels or earthy neutrals that give off a grounded, calm vibe.  I help identify what colours truly resonate, empowering you to wear pieces that feel authentic and reflect your true self.

6. A Simple, Yet Life-Changing Process

Personally, this has been the most transformative part of my style journey.  I am now confident to wear colour rather than always reaching for black as that was easy, but I never really felt great in it.  I feel better wearing “my” colours and the confidence that comes with that is quite powerful.  Negative or less than complimentary comments now bounce off me rather than have me second guess my choices as I know what works for me and why.

This is an amazing gift idea for a young person starting out on their style journey as the information learned they will carry throughout life.  This is a fun and empowering experience to come and do alone or with a friend.
