Most of my clients chose to invest in the whole "Journey" of Self Discovery" which includes: Colour Analysis, Make Up Lesson  and Personal Style Day taken as three separate modules in your own time.

 If time is short and you need quick results our Fast Track consultation may be perfect for you.  All modules can be acheived in one day for immediate impact on a one to one consultation for an investment of £380.00. If you would like to spend a very special day together as a couple book a Couples Class. 

You choose what suits you best. Decide if you would like to start with a Colour Analysis £99.00, Make Up Lesson £40.00 or Personal Style Day £130.00.

If you have already had your colours analysed a re-rate may be a great option. As you go through life things about you change -   such as your hair colour, the opacity of your skin and which colours you feel confident wearing. Whilst your season stays the same, a revisit to have your colours re-rated, gives you a fresh look at your colours and what works on you. This session helps you keep your look fresh and on trend. You leave with refreshed, renewed energy. Your investment for a re-rate is £40.00. Your make up techniques can be updated in a "Wake Up your Make Up" consultation for £15.00.

The time spent with you is a very happy memory for me and I'm so looking forward to getting my wedding outfit with so many lovely colours to choose from.   Beryl

I really enjoyed my day with you and I'm very excited about putting what I've learnt into practice. I went on the school run today wearing a top that is one of "my" blues, and I used my new foundation, although I was running a bit late and hadn't had time to put on my eye make up. Even so, one friend said how nice I looked today and someone else asked me if if had my hair done!!! So, proof that it works. Julie also texted to say she'd had a compliment from someone on the school run so we're two delighted girls :-) Thanks again for a fantastic experience. Vanessa

I never thought having someone sort out my clothes could be so life-changing but I was absolutely wrong. Having realised that I was wearing only the most 'comfortable' (read 'grotty') of my wardrobe and saving the rest for some mystical 'best' with two young kids there is no best!, I rang Julia and nervously sorted out my bulging wardrobe into the categories she asked.
Julia was totally delightful - honest and constructive, she focussed on what I had got right, assigning the other clothes to charity or sell, but with a manner that made me feel totally positive. As time went on, I got the gist of why things were right, so really reinforcing everything I had learnt about colours and style...and after 2 hours of total dedication, I had a perfectly matching Gamine Ingenue wardrobe - where everything looked and felt good.
The morning was fabulous, I had great fun and now I feel totally empowered that everything I wear including accessories is right for me. I have already made use of things I hid for another day, and am totally buoyed up by all the compliments I keep getting. The wardrobe review and Julia is worth its weight in gold - I can't recommend it enough.
Kate Saunders, Marketing Consultant

As I was doing my make-up myself for my wedding day I wanted it to look very natural and have the confidence that it would look good on the day! Having had a make-up consultation with Julia in the past I knew that she would be the best person to help me. I wanted to ensure I had the right lip colour and the right light powder foundation. Julia understood exactly what I was after and helped me choose a perfect lip pencil and gloss for me and then advised me about the excellent mineral dual foundation with a lovely Kabuki brush which was excellent to stop shine for the photos . It also had the added bonus of sunscreen to protect my skin for the day!

Let me give you the view of what I've been up to... A couple of years ago shortly after I did my Colours and Styling with Julia we did a big shop and bought a lot of casual items for summer. This year it became clear that I needed some trousers for summertime at work. The trousers I had were all too wintery (grey flannel and chocolate cords) for the warm weather.
For work I have good suits when I'm seeing external people, but these days that's overdressed for the office which is "business casual". The rules of dress from my Style Consultation enabled me to identify exactly what I needed.
Step 1 was to figure out what colours I was looking for in advance. As both my wife and I have had our Colour and Style with Julia, this was an easy task of us looking at my summer set of shirts combined with my colours, then figuring out which of my base colours would match the largest number of shirts.
I now find that shopping is fast and easy because decisions were made before I left the house. Whilst shopping I had my colour wallet out and went section to section scanning for the right colours and moving on quickly when they weren't obvious After I've dismissed items based purely on colour it's easy to look at the clothes left and quickly consider them in or out based on my style. (I'm a very impatient shopper!)
The main value of my time spent with Julia is that it takes the wondering and worry out of the clothes selection. That means I can get through stores faster, find things that work, and spend less time trying on things that won't. It also helps me to do the shopping in a more concentrated way meaning that I'm shopping less often, Mark Baker, Programmes Director

 

Julia, many thanks for the lovely day I spent with you. A Big Thank You. One to my lovely daughters for this wonderful present, they always come up with great ideas and to YOU for the champagne, and for making me LOOK (DARE I SAY BEAUTIFUL AGAIN) . I love my new look and feel great when I go out, I have a new kick in my step. I would love to come to your next event, but unfortunately I won`t be back until next May, Until then, love, Maureen
