The Authentic Approach: Why I Don't Use Celebrity Examples in Color Analysis

 Celebrity culture has always been a fascination, and it's no surprise that we look up to celebrities for inspiration, whether it's their fashion choices, hairstyles, or makeup looks. However, when it comes to color analysis, I've chosen to take a different route.

Here's why I opt for authenticity over celebrity endorsements in my analysis:

1. Hair Dye and Ever-Changing Styles

Celebrities often change their hair color and style to fit a role or their personal preferences. This constant transformation can make it challenging to determine their natural coloring, which is the foundation of color analysis. It's essential to work with individuals who exhibit their natural, unaltered characteristics.

2. Makeup, Lighting, and Photoshop

Red carpets and photoshoots involve heavy makeup, professional lighting, and post-production editing. These factors can dramatically alter a celebrity's appearance. It's not a true reflection of their natural beauty, and color analysis thrives on authenticity and genuine attributes.

3. Misrepresentation of Real Beauty

Using celebrities can inadvertently perpetuate unrealistic beauty standards. They often have access to an army of makeup artists, stylists, and photo editors. By using everyday people's photos in my analysis, I want to celebrate the real, unfiltered beauty that exists in the wider community.

4. Diversity and Inclusivity

The wider community represents a tapestry of ethnicities, skin tones, and unique styles. By using photos from various individuals, I can showcase the diversity of color analysis and how it applies to people from all walks of life. This inclusivity is central to my approach.

5. Real-World Application

My goal is to provide practical color analysis that people can apply to their daily lives. Using everyday individuals in my analysis allows me to offer tangible advice and inspiration that resonates with real people, regardless of their lifestyle or background.

6. Relatability

Seeing a celebrity's photo might be inspiring, but it can also feel distant and unattainable. Using everyday people's photos makes the recommendations and insights more relatable. It helps my audience envision how color analysis can work for them.

In conclusion, I prioritize authenticity, diversity, and inclusivity in my color analysis approach. By using photos from the wider community, I aim to provide practical, real-world advice that resonates with individuals from all walks of life. It's about celebrating the authentic beauty that exists in the world around us and showcasing how color analysis can enhance our unique, natural features.
