"Know first who you are, then adorn yourself accordingly"

Epictetus - Greek-born Stoic philosopher  55 AD - 135 AD

George Ashdown-Audsley

     Clear even skin tone, bright eyes and radiant hair color are all non-verbal signs of youth, good health, good grooming, and good genes. We all either consciously or unconsciously use these markers in our evaluation of people we see or meet. Fair or unfair, it is human nature to value these qualities in ourselves and others.

      COLOR is the most under-utilized and foolproof appearance enhancer men and women can use to improve how they look. Unlike plastic surgery, "miracle" serums, or expensive facial treatments the mindful choice of clothing and makeup COLORS offers the ability to instantly improve the appearance of the complexion by means of simultaneous contrast - the reflection of colors worn near and on the face.

     The colors that are ideal for you will optimally flatter your skin, hair, and eyes so you are seen in the most positive light. Your 'best' colors need to be more than flattering.  They also need to feel authentic and comfortable on you. They need to communicate your personal 'essence'. Call it your spirit, your personality, your values, or whatever your like. Your essence is what makes you YOU. Any color that feels out of sync with your 'essence' has no place in your color story. This is what makes Essential ColorsÒ the most advanced personal color analysis system today.

     The undeniable advantage of wearing your best COLORS will change the way you look and feel. Guaranteed. But read on to see what's different about our unique method of color analysis.

Essential Colors®  - Wardrobe Palette

 Five Element Color Analysis

Colors for Your Mind, Body, and Spirit

   Essential Colors® - Body Colors

    Custom Body Color Charting

     Your Unique Body Color Palette

The Essential Colors™ method of arriving at your ideal color palette takes into account both:
  • Your personal coloring (eyes, skin, hair) at the current stage of your life
  • Your 'Essential Energy' (personality and core values)

to determine the best range of colors to:

  • optimally flatter your unique coloring

  • provide you with a foolproof coordinated wardrobe color plan

  • authenticate your Essential energy

  • utilize the  'law of attraction' to support your intentions

Who should have an Essential ColorsÒ analysis?

  • those who have never been color analyzed

  • those who were color analyzed more than 5 years ago

  • those who were color typed using a less refined 4-12 category color system

  • anyone who has not been completely pleased with colors they were given by a color consultant

  • those who have been analyzed differently by different consultants

  • those attracted to a holistic 'spirit based' lifestyle and beauty approach

Your physical coloring is a design theme that serves as the basis for your personal harmony.

Individually selected color swatches representing your unique personal color design can be used as a simple shopping guide for harmonious clothing and makeup OR they can be used to further customize your Essential Colors® Wardrobe Palette (see left)

Some examples of how to use your body colors to choose:

  • Earrings to call attention to your eye color

  • Shoes in a deeper tone of your skin color ~ they'll go with everything you wear

  • A suit or coat that is a gorgeous extension of your hair color

  • The ideal red tones for lipsticks, blushers and nail colors

  • An accurate representation of you skin coloring to use for selecting face makeup like foundation, powder, or concealer.
