What colour type am I?

What colour type am I? Ever wondered why the colours that look stunning on models don’t always have the same effect when you try them on? When shopping in-store or online, everything may seem perfect, but once you put on your new clothes at home, the results can be disappointing. Why do some colours flatter…

Hi Style works for the following companies:

Ludwina

The color analysis with Merel was mind-blowing! Discovering my Fully Warm palette (a blend of Spring and Autumn) left me speechless. I've always thought I was a Summer or Winter type (cool seasons) dyeing my hair black or other cool colors for years whilst being a warm toned, medium blond haired woman with yellow based complexion. Because I was very pale, I thought I was cool. Now I love my true colors and can't wait to wear them all!

It was on my bucket list for years: to have my colors done! I wore brown and orange for years for my clothes en make-up. Merel showed me (and that is important to me) that I look so much better in cool colors. After my analysis I went straight to the Bijenkorf to buy new make-up. My husband told me that I look years younger!

Having Asian roots I thought I could wear any color. During the color analysis Merel showed me that there are beautiful colors for me, basic colors and to so good colors. Ever since I booked the color analysis my color card is in my purse and I did not have any mis buy. Making color combinations has never been easier.
