Just last week, one of my clients asked, “Is colour analysis really getting popular here in Brisbane?” My answer? Absolutely yes! If you’ve been scrolling through TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube, you’ve probably noticed it everywhere. People are filming their colour analysis sessions, discovering their best colours, and excitedly sharing their seasonal tones: “I’m a Cool Summer!” or “I’m a Bright Winter!”
The Viral Spread of Colour Analysis
Colour analysis isn’t exactly new—it’s been around for a few decades. I first came across it over 20 years ago when I learned about the SciART system. Fast forward to today, the tools and techniques have evolved. One of the most exciting developments is with the Korean CCCS system, which I now use. It expands the range of seasonal tones beyond the traditional bright, vivid colours. Now, I also work with “whitish” tones and “blackish” hues, making colour analysis more practical and adaptable for everyone.
Accuracy in colour analysis has improved a lot, thanks to technology. I use a patented cube in my sessions, which helps precisely identify your skin’s undertone - whether it's cool or warm - and determine which season your skin belongs to. This has made the process more reliable, ensuring consistent, precise, and useful results.
In Korea, colour analysis is so popular that they even categorize makeup products by seasonal tones. This means you can easily shop for the right products in just a few clicks! Imagine how convenient it is to know exactly which shades will work for you without the guesswork.
Why the Buzz?
Colour analysis is no longer a luxury like it used to be decades ago. It’s now part of a lifestyle and an essential step in personal styling.
What also makes colour analysis so appealing these days is that it taps into the idea of self-improvement without a major investment of time or money. People want to look good and feel good. They’re searching for ways to express their unique style, and colour analysis gives them the tools to do that. Rather than following fleeting fashion trends, it provides a personal guide to colours that complement your natural beauty. Once you know your best colours, it feels like a long-term investment in yourself, transforming how you shop, dress, and even feel on a daily basis.
Colour analysis also resonates with those looking to save time and money. Have you ever found yourself unsure about which colours suit you? Many people buy clothes that don’t look right and end up unworn, or they stick with safe, neutral tones like black and navy to play it safe. My clients often tell me that after their colour analysis session, making colour choices becomes so much easier - whether it’s for clothing, makeup, or accessories. They no longer waste time deliberating or spend money on items they won’t wear. Instead, they build wardrobes full of items that make them look fabulous.
Is Colour Analysis Really That Useful?
Now, onto the big question: does it really work? In short, yes! But colour analysis isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution, and it’s not just about finding one perfect shade or one seasonal tone. Colour analysis is about understanding how different colours interact with your unique skin tone and facial features. By discovering your seasonal palette and sub-seasonal tone, and understanding the characteristics of your best colours, you can create harmony in your overall look. This can make you appear brighter, more polished, and boost your confidence—making you feel great!
It’s also important to know that colour analysis isn’t about limiting yourself. Just because one season suits you best doesn’t mean you can’t wear other colours. It’s about learning the characteristics of your best colour tones so you know what works best for you. With so many colours out there nowadays, it's pointless to focus on specific shades since it’s easy to get confused without a strong understanding of colours. Knowing your colour tones and understanding their characteristics allow you to confidently choose colours that suit you, giving you the options and the freedom to choose with confidence. You’ll understand why a certain shade of blue looks amazing on you, while another might fall flat.
