personal colour analysis
Imagine 4 hours to see yourself through a profoundly new lens.
Watch your face change with each of the different coloured fabrics, to see at the end your most compelling self. Learn about your colour family, including how to find your 100s of colours in stores. And to how to choose makeup that elevates you, from blush that melts in as your natural flush, to “my lips but better” lipstick.
Modern 12-season colour analysis is a later-in-life passion for me. As a neuroscientist, the discovery that there are colours undeniably electric on each of us, and that there is rigour of science behind it all, was a revelation to me. PCA (personal colour analysis) is what lights up my life now, combining the fascination of problem-solving during the analysis, with the pure joy of seeing the person become riveting in their colour family.
The closer you come to your core, the greater is your joy.
~ Torkom Saraydarin
What I especially value about this PCA we practice:
- That you SEE for yourself the effects on your face in the mirror. Different colour families change how your skin looks, for example, with some harsh or dulling, while others make the skin luminous. At the end, when we have discovered your season, the face in the mirror has definition, presence, and power, with eyes you cannot look away from.
- That you are given the tools and support to guide you in the real world. Focused shopping, saving money, uncluttered closets, simplicity in getting dressed in the morning – all part of the outcome.
- That PCA is about celebrating and empowering you, exactly as you are. When we take away all the negative effects of disharmonious colours next to your face, and add the illumination from wearing the colours you are made of – voila, we get to see YOU, all lit up.
I did not know I held so much goodness.
~ Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass
My Story
In 2013, I’d returned to my natural hair colour after 20 years of henna. And while it was, at age 50, a relief and an adventure in many ways to leave behind my signature red hair, I was feeling…without a compass somehow, when it came to my appearance.
But at my appointment with Christine Scaman, I could see that my colour family made my skin radiant, my “dirty blonde” hair dimensional, and my eyes like jewels. Looking in that mirror, in my colours, I felt both more beautiful than perhaps ever in my life, but also intensely authentically myself.
Find out who you are and do it on purpose
~Dolly Parton
And amazingly, to a non-makeup person: A minute and a half to put on lipstick, eyeliner and blush in MY colours, and I was somehow even more me, in focus – I saw the magic for myself (And if makeup is your jam, PCA is fabulous because now you can know that every purchase is right for you, and will be used!)
The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.
~ C.G. Jung
