Reveal Collection
As I am both a makeup artist and a personal color analysis consultant utilizing the Sci/ Art system, I wanted to create the Elea Blake Reveal Collection in order to ease the pressure of finding the right color to match the dotagements of the Sci/Art system.
I have been a makeup artist for over twenty years and have found it imperative to ensure that my clients received the best possible colors for their skin. I believe that all persons should have a personal color analysis performed in order to reach their power colors, or colors that help them enhance their beauty. Before I began performing the personal color analysis with the use of the Sci/Art system I created the Elea Blake cosmetic line. The concept was and has continued to be, to custom blend every client that comes into our studio. We create a palette for our clients one on one and have endless possibilities with our color blending techniques. Several years ago I revisited the personal color analysis service for my clients. I was familiar with the concept from my days in the oh so fashionable 80ʼs but felt that the system had yet to be refined. I was always fascinated by the concept but was not completely sold on it. I had found that some clients just did not match up with the results available at the time. I started to research several companies on the market finding most unsatisfactory until I met Kathryn Donovon owner and creator of the Sci/Art system. I was completely and utterly impressed by her extensive knowledge and professional draping system. Kathrynʼs system offered the correct tools, teaching, and support. The clients results were so accurate! Peopleʼs personas changed and brightened before your very eyes!
While utilizing this system I saw how fantastic it would be to create ready-made cosmetic colors to go with the Seasonal palettes. For example, if you are a Bright Winter you have a ready-made collection created from that palette. At Elea Blake we have tested each color to ensure that it matches the dotagement1 that Kathryn has developed. This task was accomplished with many a long night and a frustrated sigh. I personally reviewed each color to make sure that the color would fit into the palette it was created for. The time involved in this process was lengthy and exhausting, the result the beautiful Reveal Collection.
Designing the Colors
The most fascinating aspect about these color collections is that there are few rules and endless possibilities! These colors are designed for the creative core in all of us. They bring one back to the days spent with colorful arrays of crayons and construction paper.
They are really that simple! You can use these colors alone or layer, blend, and build them. Each color in itʼs prospective palette harmonizes with one another, so you just canʼt mess up! That is exactly the way these palettes are designed. Another extraordinary aspect about these colors, are that most of the colors can be used for a multitude of uses. Foundations can double as eyeshadows, eyeliners can be shadows, blushers can be bronzers or eyeshadows, perhaps even eyeliners. The possibilities are endless!
There is also a bonus pack of colors designed for those longing for the extra spark to their makeup, with hipilicious shades that can be used as highlights, pops, or accents. These are palette friendly optional picks. We refer to these as eye toners, as they can be mixed or blended with all the palettes.
Reveal
A Collection of Possibilities
To most people color is an enigma. Why does this color look good and this one doesnʼt? At Elea Blake Studio, color is clarity. It is clear to us as to why one color works for our clients while another can tear them down. That is why we have made color our passion. Focusing that passion, we have created Reveal. Foundations, eyeshadows, eyeliners, blushers, bronzers and lipsticks all crafted with a myriad of possibilities. When we create a palette for our clients, we ensure that all the colors stand on there own. Unique in the Reveal Collection is the ability to build, mix and blend colors like no other. Colors for every occasion, mood or whim.
The collection is based on color analysis. Once you have identified what palette your client is, the rest becomes just a color fantasy. An array of colors that you know will be perfect no matter what you select. That kind of confidence turns your client into a color girlfriend and now you are no longer selling, you are playing. So have fun and enjoy the possibilities.
