Accurate colours for you!
Format: Paperback
I gave my daughter this book for her birthday, and she loved it! It took her some time to study it and accurately assess what her best colour palette was, so now she can be smart about the next pieces of clothing she buys. It is much more thorough and advanced than the other outdated colour books.

Format: Paperback
Love this book! I waited be star it seemed I could find all this info online, but this is a great ongoing reference I find myself opening again and again. Worth it!

It is perfect
Format: Paperback
It is perfect! I'm taking classes for personal stylist. The professor is good, but this book has MORE information useful for this subject than the one I'm taking in class. I also bought another book here in Amazon but it is not even close as good as this one. I think it is a book to keep.

The best (and most inclusive) book on personal color!
Format: Paperback
Truly the best book I've read about personal color, with the best palettes! This is especially true if you are a POC; Rees replaces the "value" dimension with "contrast" so that all POC don't get lumped into Autumn or Winter like so many other systems. A POC can be ANY season, unlike many other systems (I'm looking at you Ms. Brailey and everyone at AICI). The skin tone representation in the book was lovely and Rees' creation of color genres is genius. She really differentiates herself as an original and practical thinker in a color space that is too often dogmatic and Eurocentric. The quality of the photos within is absolutely unmatched. 10/10! ... show more

Great for those interested in learning about color
Format: Paperback
Such a great book for a great price. I love that it teaches you about color so you have a better understanding of how it all works with different undertones, skin and hair color.

The title is misleading.
Format: Paperback
This is a nice book with more technical information than you want if you are just looking for guidance on personal wardrobe colors, makeup, etc. It is an excellent reference book for students of colors such as artists or decorators, but is heavy and awkward to use; but what the heck, give it a try. For personal color, I will still revert to Color Me Beautiful 95% of the time because it is straightforward and easy to use. ... show more

Excellent
Format: Paperback
Best book on the market for color analysis theory. Explained everything in a way that made so much more sense. I did find it a little challenging to understand chroma and undertone for very pale complexions, but I was able to watch analysts on YouTube who filled in that gap for me. This is definitely the best book out there so far though. Highly recommend. ... show more
