personal color analysis

Color harmony for women in all seasons of life.

Many of us struggle with accepting our God-given natural beauty. It can be tough to overcome the lack of confidence that holds us back from using our gifts and talents to fulfill His purposes for our lives.  My journey to becoming a Personal Color Analyst has been long and winding, full of ups and downs. From feeling awkward as a teenager to the tired but blessed stay-at-home mom, the busy owner of a large salon and day spa, to becoming a graying grandma, I've always struggled with insecurity.

When I had my daughter, I realized the importance of instilling more than just self-confidence in her. I wanted her to know that her beauty and worth are firmly rooted in who God says she is - created in His image, fearfully and wonderfully made, altogether beautiful, God's masterpiece, and so very loved by her Creator! It's my hope that you, too, can find the confidence and strength that comes from embracing your natural beauty and know that you are truly amazing just the way you are.

My journey with color harmony

Who would have thought that something as simple as personal color analysis could have such a profound effect on me? After discovering the color palette that harmonizes with my unique color, it changed how I saw myself, spoke to myself, and gave me what I like to refer to as God-confidence.

This confidence propelled me to use my gifts and talents to become a certified Personal Color Analyst, with the hope of helping others discover their unique color harmony, express their natural beauty, and have the God-confidence to live out who they were created to be.

What is personal color analysis?

Personal Color Analysis is the process of identifying the color palette that is most harmonious with our unique coloring. The colors that makeup who you are-your skin, hair, & eyes, are already in perfect harmony because they all share qualities of color that are in balance with each other.

Using the 12-tone TCI Method, a color analysis system based on color science, accurate interpretation of the Munsell color system, full-spectrum light, and the science of natural color harmony, we are able to discover the color palette that is balanced and most harmonious with your personal coloring.

Color speaks louder than words.

“Color is a language to which we all respond. Color exerts a powerful impact on the mood of those around you; it is the one characteristic that determines a viewer’s first impression more than any other aspect of your attire. It can alter your appearance and mood and thereby the reception you receive from others. Used correctly, color can make you appear healthier, slimmer, younger, more vivacious, more interesting, and exciting - the colors you choose to wear are the richest form of self-expression available to you.”

According to the institute of color research

Colors can support or oppose how we feel, how we look, and how we are perceived by others.

Certain colors can create negative optical illusions on your skin. They can make you look and even feel tired. They can cause your skin to look more yellow, redder, or paler. The appearance of dark circles and even those laugh lines can appear more exaggerated. Personal color analysis helps us avoid these negative color effects and identify the colors that will help you look and feel your best.

90 seconds

People make a subconscious judgment about us within 90 seconds.

62-90 percent

Between 62% and 90% of that assessment is based on the colors we wear alone.

"I had a very pleasant experience having my colors analyzed by CanDe Lyons. She took her time and was patient and thorough in helping me understand the process. CanDe has an amazing eye for color and explained how l look healthier in colors that compliment my skin tone. CanDe also has a unique way of making you feel better about yourself, because "your" colors make you look your best!"
